Best way to add more mic pres to HDX/Omni system?

Hi all,

I have a Pro Tools Ultimate HDX system, running on Windows, with an HD Omni interface. Most of my work consists of mixing (and various small overdubs & MIDI stuff), so I generally get by just fine with the two pres in the Omni.

I want to add 8 more mic-pres, though, and the necessity to connect via Digilink seems to be a terrible limitation. I imagine I'll end up getting a Focusrite Red 8, but it seems there is a whole world of good multi-preamp boxes that I can't use just because they can't connect to my HDX card via Digilink.

Is there some way around this?

Thanks,
Malcolm Pollack
