The Alesis ADAT has 8 DAC and 8 ADC channels, so you can record and play back
all 8 tracks simultaneously, but independently. You can also lock a number
of machines together for up to 64-track recording, at an unchallenged price.
Whether this is possible with multiple falcons I don't know, and I dare say
I won't know until Atari get their act together and sell me one :-)
