How many channels of mic pres do you have?

12 in a Soundcraft Spirit E12 board
1 ART pre which I haven't even used yet

More than enough for now, as the Soundcraft pres sound really damn good and transparent
 
36 analog channels on the m600 and 16 pres on firewire racks to computer. 52....that sounds like a lot. Oh, I also have 8 on another digital mixer...gheez.
I would not ever need more than the 16 the MOTU 896HD/ADA8000 give me, even with a full band. If I was to record a symphony I would use the mixer(s) and bus stuff in groups to the 16 computer ins. I am seriously thinking of chucking my mixer. It's preamps sound better than the others but it's not worth the hassles at this point, I rarely use outboard gear anymore.
