The AES digital I/O is transformer coupled and is capable of driving 500 feet of cable at 192kHz. Both dual and single-wire AES channel modes are supported.
Front Panel Controls
Aurora's ergonomically designed front panel sports simple access to important controls and signal status. One-of-a-kind to this product class, Aurora also offers lots of remote control capability. All front panel features plus other low-level options can be controlled from the Lynx AES16 digital interface card on Windows and Macintosh platforms; a Pocket PC or laptop via infrared; MIDI; or an LSlot interface card. Multiple remote set-up configurations can be stored and recalled.
On-board 32-channel Mixer
The on-board 32-channel digital mixer rocks lots of routing and mixing options. Acting as a strong patch bay style digital router, Aurora can easily route signals between analog and digital inputs on a channel-by-channel basis. Mixing capability on each out also rocks flexible zero latency monitoring.
