Afaik Focusrite Scarlett audio interfaces usually work fine with Linux. Personally I have used the 2i2 gen 1, solo get 2 and 6i6 gen 2, all with my laptop running Ubuntu Studio and a Raspberry Pi.. I did try once a 18i20 with my laptop but couldn't get it to work (though I tried for a few minutes only as I was in the store selling the device). If you can get a 18i20 to work, you could have your system work I guess. Though it should cost a few hundred dollars, euros, or whatever. Still these are quite cheap priced devices.

Dear all,
I haven't posted anything on this list in years. I'm trying to build a system to play several sound files in a loop, each around 2 minutes in length, all at the same time. By "several" I mean 10 to 15 different files. While I'd have no problem making a Pd patch to achieve this, I have no idea what hardware I could use. I have a limited budget, and I was planning on running Pd on a Raspberry Pi (or similar single-board computer).
Is there any cheap way of outputing than many channels from a single (a couple of) RPi ?
Thanks in advance,
Pierre.
