LYNX
LS-ADAT
Multi-channel ADAT Expansion Card
The LS-ADAT is a full-function ADAT interface that provides two ADAT lightpipe
inputs and outputs and an ADAT sync input for the LynxTWO and Lynx L22 audio
cards. Operating at a sample rate of 48 kHz, the LS-ADAT I/O channel capacity is 16.
Higher sample rates are supported using S/MUX technology: 8 channels at 96 kHz and
4 channels at 192kHz.
LS-AES LStream Expansion Card
The LS-AES is an 8-channel AES/EBU or S/PDIF LStream interface module
that is designed for use with the LynxTWO and Lynx L22. The LS-AES
provides four inputs and outputs that support professional AES/EBU and
consumer S/PDIF digital I/O formats. Connections are transformer coupled
with pro-quality sample rate conversion (SRC) available on all inputs. The
LS-AES is also compatible with Dolby Digital and DTS encoded formats.

◆ The ADAT sync input provides two methods of
sample-accurate synchronization.
–In systems using ASIO compatible audio applications,
the LS-ADAT utilizes Steinberg's ASIO Positioning
Protocol for synchronization to ADAT time code.
– Using the LS-ADAT’s cue point capability initiates
recording or playback with sample period resolution.
◆ Running at a sample rates up to 96 kHz,the
LS-AES provides eight I/O channels in sin-
gle-wire mode and four channels in dual-
wire mode.At 192 kHz,four channels of
I/O are available in dual-wire mode and
two channels in quad-wire mode.
◆ For additional channel capacity, two LS-
AES cards can be used simultaneously with
one LynxTWO or L22.
◆ The LS-AES can handle both asynchronous
and synchronous studio configurations.
SRC can be enabled independently on each
digital input to accommodate asynchronous
signals from multiple digital devices
Alternatively, all inputs can be run synchro-
nously and any input can be selected as the
system clock source. The card can also be
synchronized to a word clock or composite
video received by the host LynxTWO.
◆ For S/PDIF coaxial connections,the
optional Lynx XLR to RCA S/PDIF adapters
CBL-XFDRM18 and CBL-XMDRM18 are
required. The LS-AES installs in an empty
bracket internally in your computer, no PCI
slot required.
◆ Includes: LS-AES Internal Card LS-AES
LStream Ribbon Cable 6' AES/EBU
Breakout Cable
◆ Sample clock source can be derived from a word clock or composite video
received by the LynxTWO.In addition,either lightpipe input or the Sync In port
can also be selected as the clock source.
◆ The LS-ADAT can also transmits time code via MTC for general compatibility
with many applications.
◆ Installs in an empty bracket internally in your computer, no PCI slot required.
Using the LynxTWO/L22 Mixer application,“stand-alone”functions can be
configured that place no demand on the host computer. In a LynxTWO system
these functions include but are not limited to:
• Four-channel, 192 kHz analog-to-AES or analog-to-ADAT converter
• Four-channel, 192 kHz AES-to-analog or ADAT-to-analog converter
• Eight-channel AES digital patch-bay
• 16-channel ADAT digital patch bay
• AES to ADAT or ADAT to AES format converter
• Composite video or word clock to AES or ADAT synchronizer
Now you can easily increase the I/O capacity of the
LynxTWO and L22 digital audio cards. The LS-AES and
LS-ADAT provide high-performance multi-channel
AES/EBU and ADAT connectivity for any Windows or
Macintosh based audio or video workstation at sample
rates up to 192kHz.
Channels from the expansion cards are connected
directly to the LynxTWO/L22 digital mixer.This allows
almost unlimited routing capabilities with expansion
card I/O’s, as well as the analog and digital I/O’s of the
host LynxTWO or L22.
