Lynx Aurora 8 A/D D/A 192KHz Converter

Full beskrivelse

Unlike most standalone pro audio converters, the Aurora provides 8 or 16 channels of AD and DA conversion with sample rates up to 192kHz. The Aurora provides the essential front-end for your digital audio workstation, digital mixer, or modular recording device. Through rigorous component selection, custom firmware programming, and input from a seasoned engineering team, the Aurora represents a level of sound quality previously available only to devices costing thousands of dollars more, suitable for mastering and acoustic measurement and analysis, as well as multi-channel music production.

The Aurora features 24-bit AES3 digital I/O and supports sample rates up to 192kHz through Singlewire or Dual-wire operation. Several cable options are available that allow connection to a wide array of digital devices.

Should one need support for other digital formats, the Aurora is easily expandable through the addition

of convenient LStream� or LSlot� expansion cards. Currently, the LT-ADAT� LStream card is

available for ADAT Lightpipe Optical I/O. Check the Lynx website for availability of LSlot expansion options. With exclusive SynchroLock� technology, the Aurora provides unmatched tolerance to jitter when synchronizing to external clocks. This makes it an ideal solution for situations where noise sources are abundant, or where long cable runs are required. The SynchroLock output can also provide a clean and accurate clock for other connected audio devices. To adapt to the greatest variety of operational circumstances, several control options are available. Front panel controls offer access to the most frequently required parameters and allow for effective, independent operation. For use with a computer-based Digital Audio Workstation, the external remote control software allows users to access operational parameters, view real-time level meters for all inputs and outputs, save scenes, and route any input to any output from a convenient, easy to use interface. To use this software, the computer must either be equipped with the Lynx AES16�, LynxTWO� or L22� audio interface, a functional MIDI interface, or IrDA port. For live or remote recording situations, Lynx has developed a unique software interface allowing complete parameter control via infrared from a standard Pocket PC. Finally, the Aurora allows user-initiated firmware updates with files posted on the Lynx Studio Technology website. Firmware updates provide new features and compatibility and can improve the operation of the unit. The Aurora firmware can be programmed via a connected Lynx audio interface, infrared or MIDI.
