That's right, but the BLA PM-8 only has 8 mono inputs anyway, so that's all it can handle.

Sure, but again the BLA PM-8 is only 8 ins so utilizing those is not needed, unless you get a 16 channel option from another company or a good mixer.

OK....

Thanks for the reply. lets say I get a good mixer and want to do 16 outputs , how would I go about that?

Well, if you like the BLA Summing box, you can also buy another one and chain them. That's 16 inputs for you right there.

There's plenty of 8 I/O ADAT preamp/converters in the market that you can use with the Saffire. This one depends on your budget. I use a BLA modified Behringer ADA8000 and I'm really happy with it.
