even with minimal tunes i use this many, as i 'm running multiple pathways on most of the sounds.
but i've also made tunes with 6 channels and 2 sends.

and no psytrance

I too end up using all the 24 channels of my mackie mixing desk, would like to have 32 since I bought the 2 elektron boxes there is output galore in my studio and I'm a multitrack freak -and on the computer I route 2 stereo pairs and 4 mono outs to get advantage of the mixing desk EQ (not a Neve, but better thank EQ8 to my ears), but I'm usually fine with 4 send, maybe it's time to shop for some effect boxes

I could do a hole track with one impulse channel, so what...the nr. of the channels in your daw means nothing.

Generally:
8 channels + 5 sends.
