Lynx Studio Technology Hilo 2 Reference AD/DA Converter with USB

The Lynx Studio Technology Hilo 2 is a reference AD/DA converter system featuring two-channel analog I/O, 24-bit/192 kHz sample rate, headphone amplifier, and flexible monitor control. 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.

Hilo displays real-time, accurate metering and analysis. Dual horizontal, VU analog, all I/O and spectrum analysis cover all tasks. 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.

One-to-one monitoring. Independently level-match your 4x4 selected sources, then globally control with the master-volume. Device-wide settings recall. Save custom scenes for different tasks and switch through them in a click.

No need for extra computer software, change any setting directly on Hilo, such as sample rate, clock source or trims.
