I have a couple questions that aren't related to
Ardour specifically, but have plenty to do with audio
recording so I hope somebody can help.

First, I'd like to be able to record four mono tracks
at a time.  At this time, I can record two mono tracks
at a time with my Soundblaster live.  I'm wondering,
should I get another Soundblaster live (so I would
have 2 of them), or should I get a professional sound
card?  If a professional sound card would be better,
what type(s) would you recommend?  Also, how well does
recording work with USB devices?

Also, I have a bit of an issue with my mixing board. 
Whenever I plug an instrument into one of the mono
inputs, it picks up a radio station.  And the radio
station gets louder the more I turn up the gain input.
(on the mixer, not on Linux)  Anybody know how I can
keep my mixing board from picking up radio stations?

Thanks so much for all of your help in advance. 
Ardour is an awesome program. (I just wish there was
an option to open an external audio editor (ex.
Audacity) from  Ardour to do editing of individual
tracks.  But aside from that, the program is awesome.
