The Lynx Hilo 2 USB AD/DA Converter is designed for audio professionals who demand the purest audio quality with innovative features and control; all wrapped up into a single converter with thunderbolt connectivity.
Lynx Hilo 2 is for professionals who demand the purest audio quality. Engineered to be a true all-in-one device, Hilo offers class-leading AD/DA conversion, built-in metering and analysis, multiple ins and outs, hyper-flexible routing and monitoring control — all easily saved and recalled via touchscreen, whatever work you do.
Metering
Hilo displays real-time, accurate metering and analysis. Dual horizontal, VU analog, all I/O and spectrum analysis cover all tasks.
Routing
Route anything, anywhere. Set independent input levels, channel modes and mute states for each output. Then set unique level offsets for each output. Truly flexible.
Monitoring
One-to-one monitoring. Independently level-match your 4x4 selected sources, then globally control with the master-volume.
Scenes
Device-wide settings recall. Save custom scenes for different tasks and switch through them in a click.
Settings
No need for extra computer software, change any setting directly on Hilo, such as sample rate, clock source or trims.
Performance improvements
- Incomparison to the Original Hilo (these are minimum ratings, as the Hilo2 can exceed these specifications):
- Line Out THD+N: Hilo 1 = -109dB, Hilo 2= -120dB (Hilo 2 is 11 dB better!)
- Line Out Dynamic Range: Hilo 1 = 121dB, Hilo 2 = 127dB (Hilo 2 is 6 dB better!)
- Line In THD+N: Hilo 1= -114dB, Hilo 2 = -117dB (Hilo 2 is 3 dB better!)
- Line In Dynamic Range: Hilo 1 = 121dB, Hilo 2 = 122 dB (Hilo 2 is 1 dB better!)
- In-plane switching LCD with capacitive touch provides significant increase in brightness and clarity, uniform off-axis viewing, and improved touch responsiveness,
- Independently selectable linear and minimum phase filters on both the Line Ins and Line Outs.
- SynchroLock 2 sample rate clock, providing faster locking and better tracking of external clocks with 7 ppm (parts per million) absolute accuracy;
- Group A / B Master Volume controls (similar to Aurora(n)) for two sets of outputs. For example, set one master volume for all of the ADAT output and another master volume for the Line Out & Digital Out.
