No, Ardour does not need Jack. It can use ALSA for the sound interface.

It can also use Jack, but the only reason to do so would be if you need
to use an external audio processing program that only uses Jack for its
I/O.

It looks like the Omega has 8 inputs, so you should see capture 1 to
capture 8. You can assign any capture input to any channel, but the
default is channel number = capture number, or consecutive numbers
assigned to a stereo channel as you are seeing.

Maybe using ALSA directly instead of Jack will make all the inputs
visible.
