Lynx Aurora (N) 32 Dante AD/DA Converter
This Lynx Aurora (n) 32-HD with preinstalled Dante option provides you with pro-quality digital conversion and ultra-low-latency performance. The Aurora (n) 32 gives you up to 192kHz analog to digital and digital to analog conversion with front panel control of all routing and sample rate options. Word clock and MIDI I/O connectors provide you with additional sync options. Aurora (n) models give you up to 32-channel recording and playback to microSD for stand-alone operation or confidence recording, as well as two audiophile-grade headphone outs, while a TFT LCD display provides immediate status information. Leveraging high-end Lynx Hilo technology and utilizing cutting-edge FPGA processors, Aroura (n) delivers even greater transparency, with significantly lower noise and distortion than previous models.
Outfitted with all of the I/O options you need
The Aurora (n) 32-HD provides you with professional I/O options to fit your studio or live-sound production rig. Based on handy DB-25 connections, the Aurora (n) 32 analog I/O is electronically balanced and supports both +4dBU and -10dBV nominal levels. Its AES digital I/O is also transformer coupled and capable of driving 500 feet of cable at 192kHz. What’s more, the Aurora (n) 32-HD supports both dual and single-wire AES channel modes.
Fully equipped with convenient front-panel controls
Lynx designed the Aurora (n) 32 ergonomic front panel to provide you with easy access to all of its important controls and signal status. The Aurora (n) 32 also offers extensive remote control capability. You can control all of its front panel features as well as other low-level options from a Lynx AES16 digital interface card, infrared remote, MIDI, or your computer.
Onboard 32-channel mixer makes complex routing simple
The Aurora (n) 32 32-channel onboard digital mixer provides you with extensive routing and mixing options. Acting as a powerful patch-bay-style digital router, your Aurora (n) 32 can easily route signals between its analog and digital inputs on a channel-by-channel basis. That provides you with extremely flexible, and totally recallable, zero-latency monitoring capabilities.
Armed with SynchroLock-2 jitter reduction for clear digital audio Lynx’s proprietary SynchroLock-2 jitter reduction technology is also included. This LYNX-exclusive feature provides extreme jitter reduction of up to 3000:1, allowing Aurora to output an extremely clean clock output for driving the digital audio system.
