We need 24 analog outputs at 96 kHz, and a few inputs. RME HDSP MADI card? That can handle 32 ins and 32 outs at 96kHz, but getting signals in and out of MADI format is expensive (eg. RME ADI-648 plus 3 x 8-channel 96kHz ADAT interfaces). The only other alternative AFAIK is to use 3 x 8-channel cards (eg. M-Audio Delta 1010(LT) synced via S/PDIF), but you can probably forget about low-latency operation with jackd if you do that - pcm_multi and -rt kernel didn't work together with jackd last time I tried (big xruns on SMP, lockup on UP).
