That's an interesting board. On one of the expansion port there's one SPDIF link. And it looks like the other ports are interconnections to other boards for building a larger parallel computer. So I guess that one board would be required per 8 channels audio link, and that linking boards together would allow synchronizing as many SPDIF links. But I don't know if the parallel computing capability of interconnected boards would be useful, and how to program them...
