If you are thinking of wider applications I would really encourage you to go modular ... that is daisy chainable devices: 2+2+2+2 = 8 4+4 = 8 2+2+2+2+ ... = "maybe more" even if it is 8+ ... = "maybe more" Good hunting, Michael _______________________________________________ Sursound mailing list Sursound@music.vt.edu https://mail.music.vt.edu/mailman/listinfo/sursound
