well,<br>
if it should be on the cheap side,<br>
and the need for usb because of a lacking pcmcia/expresscard is
present,<br>
there there are <br>
logilink ua0099 available, which are offering 8ch output<br>
for 23euros<br>
i bought some here:<br>

<p> If it's just about having 16 channels DAC, using two C-media
CM6206 soundcards should be enough but you might need direct
input boxes if the amplifiers are not just beside the computer,
I tried this chipset and it works good on a pcduino2 and Pd with
8 channels, no glitches, it should works as well on a Raspberry
Pi 3. So it's possible to cluster the soundcard+pi on a network
and have as much channels as you need.<br>

or get yourself an old rme multiface hdsp card, eight analog
outputs and eight adat… you will need an old laptop with pcmcia
or a new one with express card (or a macbook with thunderbolt
and an adatper)

<div class="">rme cards are good quality and quite cheaply

<div class="">The Motu is $1000. The Presonus is $500.
What about getting 8x 2-channel USB soundcards? The
Griffin iMic is a 2x2 and is $40. So 8x would be $320. <br

<br class="">
If you look around, you can find 2ch USB audio adapters
for $20/each, $10/each, even $2/each. For that kind of
money you could purchase a few and evaluate them in
terms of quality, or maybe read up on what chip they use
and read reviews. <br class="">
<br class="">
I'm pretty sure Pd supports multiple audio adapters, but
have not tested this. <br class="">
<br class="">
Please post your results, as I would like to get into
ambisonics as well and be able to drive 8x or more
speakers. But I don't want to spend $1000! <br class="">
