[Ardour-Users] IO USB Hardware

[Ben Bell]

The S32 isn't standalone, but along those lines: I picked up a Behringer
Wing a while ago. There is a rack version now too. It'll do (from memory) 48
in, 48 out over USB, and has 16 hardware ins and outs. It's also digital
mixer/router and you can expand it with e.g. the S32 and route whichever
channels you want to the 48x48 USB interface. Behringer have a mixed
reputation, but it's been a good solution for me. I'm looking for an
excuse to get the rack version now.
