Here's a HOWTO on using multiple Delta 1010s (which can also be adapted

for other cards):
http://www.jrigg.co.uk/linuxaudio/ice1712multi.html
Note that the 1010 is still in production and there are so many of

them out there that used replacements should be available for quite

a while if new production ceases.
Another cheap option is a used RME HDSP9652 (also still being made)

with 3xADAT I/O. The PCIe alternative is the HDSPe RayDAT mentioned

elsewhere in this thread.
Going up the price scale there are RME MADI cards, both PCI and PCIe

versions. I used an RME HDSPe MADI with an SSL Alpha-Link for a couple

of years with excellent results, and I don't expect either of those to

go out of production for a while yet.
Future availability of PCI motherboards might be a concern, but there

are still many new boards being made with PCI slots.
