I had a Rane 6. Nice unit. I sold it. I already had a Furman and it
has a power amp with speaker outs so I kept that one instead. It's
great for the iso booth because you can use the speaker outs for
playback monitors in the booth.

I also have a (ahem) Behringer. <VBG> The only Behringer in my studio
though. ;)

That's correct.

The RME Digiface is 3 ADAT and a S/PDIF. Also has 2 Midi and Wordclock.

That's the only thing. It's overkill for what you want and it's not exactly
cheap. I don't think they have a 2 ADAT device but all their products use
the same software interface.

Which of those cards will do 16 tracks of 24 bit at 44.1 kHz. It looks
like the 9632 will only do 8 tracks as I only see two lightpipe ports.

I'm looking at $500 for the 9632 and $700 for the 9652. That's not bad
money considering I paid $4000 for the first Black Face ADAT I ever
owned. (That was back when there was a waiting period to get one.)

If they have three sets of ADAT I/O, that leaves me some growing room if
I add another Tango or something better. Pity, I sold an extra Tango
that I had this year.

The Digiface is basically a 9652 in an external box.

the 9632 only has 1 ADAT. The 9652 is two cards though.

The Digiface requires a single PCI card or a Cardbus card and then connects
via a long Firewire spec cable.
