So, I'm using Studio One 3 with an Audiobox 1818vsl. I'm starting to wonder about adding more inputs for when i'm recording drums. I think I've realized that anything else with an ADAT in/out will work right? I've just discovered the DigiMax preamps and i'm assuming that's what I need? Problem is the D8 only does 48k and the DP88 is almost twice the price of my interface. What is the most affordable way for me to add 3 more phantom powered xlr inputs at 96k? I know there has already been a question about combining 2 1818vsls and it was recommended against but why? I mean I can get a used one for under $300 and I just watched a youtube video where a guy combined 2 with the adat connections. I was also looking at the ********* ADA8200 but again it only goes up to 48k. Is it possible to run my overheads in it or a similar device at 48k and have everything else plugged into the 1818vsl at 96k?

Sample rates must match. Can't run one at 48, and another at 96. USB devices can not be daisy chained, and the 1818 needs to be connected to a pc to function. The only way to add any inputs is via adat. Any adat should work.
