The default configuration has 32 channels on the surface.  This will show how to add or subtract channels from the surface.

Si Mixers have 64 channels of DSP available (plus F/X returns and line in on Expression and Performer)
You can easily add or remove channels from surface on Si Mixers.  Especially with the v2 software upgrade on Si Impact, the channels of DSP are available, just not on the surface by default.  The number of channels you use depends on the surface size and configuration.   On a side note, the channels are there, even if not on the surface, and all channels can be operated in ViSi remote.
