[AudioI] Are the sound cards stackable?

[Serge Ortega]

Hello Andrea

You can try using 2 raspberries, each equipped with an Octo card. 
Communication can be done using netjack, the network component of the 
jackd library. With software like Ardour, you can have access to a 12in 
/ 16out system.

Best regards
Serge
