interface Looking for a new Board/Interface

Hi! First time poster, long time reader - I'm looking for a suggestion for a 24-32 channel board/interface that works with current Pro Tools (2026.4) and Mac OS (Tahoe). I run a small studio for recording bands and would love to move to a board instead of what I have currently (Tascam US 16x08). Would love to have phantom control on every channel if possible, and the ability to record in at least 96k (seems really hard anything that runs past 48k for less than $3k). The best cheap option would be great. I've been looking for the past week and just keep running into walls lol. Even something on the older side that I can get to communicate with current Pro Tools would be great. Thanks!

These are great suggestions, thank you all. Now just to pick your brains, let’s say I went the other direction and just got a rack mount interface - but a better one.

Between the Audient Evo 16, UAD Apollo x8 and the Volt 876, which seems better? Anyone have experience with any? The 192kHz / 32-bit is nice on the UADs, but it’s like double the price of the Audient.

Cheers!
