The Korena take

MTRX Studio is a professional studio interface built around eight mic preamps, 24-bit/192 kHz conversion, monitor control, talkback, and 32x32 Thunderbolt I/O. It gives a recording or mixing room a central connection point through analog DB25, ADAT, S/PDIF, Dante, and DigiLink Mini connections, with two headphone outputs for monitoring. The interface works with Pro Tools and named major Mac DAWs, while Pro Tools | Carbon preamp emulation adds another option when shaping tracked sources.
