1/4" jacks are the classic size for normal 'quality' audio at
realistic cost (you use XLR if cost isn't a factor).

In this case 8 of these will be too big for any card, so this will
require an off-board unit.  Have a look in Sound-on-Sound magazine, or
Future Music mag for this sort of thing.  It won't be cheap.  Or if
you are in London then Turnkey in Charing Cross Road, or Rose-Morris
just around the corner.

And are you sure about those 8 *outputs*?  8 Inputs would make
more sense!

Harry.
