Is it possible ?????

No, there is no way you can add more audio outputs... there is ONLY a 
2 channel DAC in the mc303.  The diagram below, showing the midi out
going through DAC's is completely bogus.  MIDI is note on, note off
type of data, not digital audio... so running midi through a DAC is
completely silly.

sorry,
