It would be cool if it had wordclock, but I know adding more features would add cost.
(#1) Use the analog out of your mic pre into one of the line inputs 9-12 for more mic pres or as an insert if you want to use the compressor

(#2) The n12 is a very high quality, very low noise A/D with the latest ultra low jitter wordclock. Just plug your analog devices into the n12.

Since ASIO allows for only one A/D device (unless you are using Mac OSX 10.4 ) you cant use 2 computer I/Os together. Chances are you would introduce more jitter and latency anyway.
Kinda defeats the whole new concept of Advanced Integration don't you think?
