Audio interfaces with many outputs

[octopoulpe]

Hi.
I'm quite a beginner and I don't really know much about audio interfaces.
I have a project where I need to connect my laptop to 10 different guitar amps.
My idea is to buy an audio interface with 10+ outputs.

For example, I found those :
https://www.thomann.de/gb/behringer_umc1820.htm (10x 6.3 mm jack line outputs (1 + 2 monitor output L/R))
https://www.thomann.de/gb/tascam_series_208i.htm (2 Balanced TRS main outputs with front level control + 6 Balanced TRS outputs + 2 Stereo headphone outputs)
https://www.thomann.de/gb/esi_u108_pre.htm (8 Balanced line outputs: 6.3 mm TRS + Stereo monitor outputs: 2x 6.3 mm jack + Headphone output: 6.3 mm jack)

My question is, with this kind of audio interface, can I send a different audio signal to each output channel? I guess(and hope) the answer is yes. But I really need to make sure about it before buying anything

Thanks in advance for your help!

I haven't done any audio mixing using entirely USB, you may want to try on a more DJ specific, or music mastering type of forum if you don't get a good answer here. I do expect that you will have to use music creation software which supports multi-track output. You also have to remember that normal music is TWO-CHANNEL stereo, so it takes up two inputs, not one if that's part of your playback goals.

I do a fair bit of mixing, but it is conference room work, not live sound work, so I'm not as familiar with these types of products.

You will want to be a lot more specific about your usage, and you will want to ask a lot more questions than just jumping into products. It's better to NOT look at products right away, but do more research on the type of goals you have. Be specific about sources, desires, and final playback results you want.

Be aware that some devices allow you to cascade multiple units and may include Dante interfaces for digital audio connections between multiple units on the fly, which could be helpful for expandability.
