Gotta say I'm curious what you're using all 32 channels for?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. LOL
I do sound for a lot of Christian conferences, and it's not uncommon for large music groups to show up, and expect every singer to have their own microphone. ???

Use "Y" cords for pairs of identical microphones 8) .

I may have to, but I prefer to have individual control.

I caught a lot of flack on controlbooth.com for suggesting the Y'ing of mics ... I do this for the choir mics at our Middle school concert ... works well for me when covering an area with multiple mics and don't need that granular of control. I have four mics -- the left and right banks with two mics each.
sam.spoons:
Y-ing would work if you have two identical dynamic mics with two identical or very similar sources like a pair of rack toms (or with distant mics as jk says) but two close miked singers are unlikely to be similar enough for it to be a satisfactory solution. I wouldn't want to be doing it with capacitor mics as the active preamps would be trying to drive each other with potential for damage.
