How many led drivers can I run off the standard analog unit on the dimming ports?

Which driver?
I tested Meanwells and you would be good for up to 4. If you need more than 4, let me know.

I was considering this

Actinic-- 1 Inventronics + 2 Meanwells

White -- 1 Inventronics + 2 Meanwells

4 per port or four total?

4 per port.
Technically speaking, you can do many more.
If I remember correctly, up to 13 meanwells. I think each meanwell was drawing 3mA when put to 100%.
Each dimming port can source 40mA. So you do the math.
As long as the drivers are not pulling more than 40mA, you are fine stacking them up.
