[PD] audio interface with multiple outs on raspberry pi

[Miller Puckette]

I've used startech "7.1" interfaces (USB powered) with Pis.  The "1" is the
same electronics as teh "7" - it's really just an 8ch output.  It has 1/8"
connectors which won't age well but it's only $25 or so.  I ended up
buying 5 for an installation.

cheers
