Lynx...you've been warned...pay close attention.

I know the pain everyone who bought the Lyx AES-16 card are feeling.

I lost my mind and a year of my life trying to get it to work on 6 different powerful machines all of which were fully tweaked and optimized according to each DAW that I tried to get working. Samplitude and Cubase gave me so much trouble with dropouts at any of the buffer settings, using any of the Lynx drivers. I then moved on to other DAW programs but none work rock solid with the Lynx AES-16.

There are dropouts in the audio recording and as a result, in some DAWs that do not report the dropouts or have processes built in to mask the audible results of those dropouts, you get out of sync when you drop samples ont he tracks that dropped out during the recording of simultaneous tracks forcing them to be out of sync with the ones that did not drop out. That's a huge issue.

It's time that David Hoatson just swallows his pride and gets his hands off the software development and hire a master coder. Get someone from a very reputable source, possibly from another company within the industry and get them fast. Before your comapny sinks like the Titanic.

It's amazing how many low end, consumer level soundcards out on the market made by companies like, Echo Audio, Line 6, Roland and EMU work flawlessly.

You'd think a company selling high end convertor technology at $3000 a pop could come up with a card interface for it that isn't plagued with gremlins when there are hundreds of cards out there costing less than $300 that work flawlessly?

Hey Lynx,

If you are going to sell your Aurora 16 like it's a turn key product when combined with the AES-16 cards, you had better make certain that the cards work flawlessly before shipping otherwise not only will you not have a turn key system to offer but no one will buy your convertor technology in the future when they learn that you can't even make a simple soundcard. Then you will have nothing.
