Lynx Aurora (n) 16-TB3 16-channel Thunderbolt 3 AD/DA Converter with AES

• The included LM-DIG module provides 16 channels in and 16 channels out of 24-bit AES/EBU, with bit-perfect transmission at sample rates of up to 192 kHz.
• AES/EBU is a world standard for digital interfacing, and the addition of the LM-DIG to the Aurora⁽ⁿ⁾ means that studios and engineers can quickly and easily integrate its superior audio quality and precise conversion/routing tools with almost any professional-quality recording system, control surface, or other tools that use the AES/EBU standard.

• The LT-TB3 card provides digital input and output to Windows and Mac computers using Thunderbolt 3 ports.
• The two-port card supports daisy-chaining Aurora⁽ⁿ⁾ converters (up to six total) with certified Thunderbolt devices, plus a display on both Mac and Windows computers.
• Thunderbolt 3 can support up to a 40 Gb/s bidirectional data rate and is primarily designed to handle the bandwidth demands of multichannel audio and 4K video.

• The analog signal path for each channel has been designed as a self-contained and shielded circuit. Each channel pair has its own dedicated conversion device. This offers many sonic advantages like significantly reducing crosstalk and distortion, while increasing dynamic range and performance.

• Proprietary, SynchroLock 2 high-performance sample-clock technology provides a whopping 300,000:1 reduction in jitter, 5-second lock time, and absolute accuracy.
• Wordclock I/Os provides one input and three outputs on BNC connectors.

• Start with eight, sixteen, or twenty-four channels and later add additional groups of eight channels for up to thirty two total.

Add Modules:
