Lynx Studio Technology is proud to announce a public beta for new firmware and driver for all of our PCI Express cards as well as the Aurora-TB and Hilo-TB. This new firmware and driver will provide the ultimate in low latency performance (sub 1ms round trip @ 96kHz) for both Windows and Macintosh computers.
Supported hardware list:
AES16e; AES16e-SRC; AES16e-50; E44; E22; LT-TB: Aurora-TB & Hilo-TB.
Supported operating system list:
Windows Vista; Windows 7; Windows 8; Windows 8.1; Windows 10. 32-bit and 64-bit fully supported.
OS X 10.6 to OS X 10.10 (OS X 10.11 should work as well, but since it is not yet officially shipping we will not put it on the official supported list). 32-bit and 64-bit supported on OS X 10.6 and 10.7. 64-bit supported on OS X 10.8 to 10.10.
We recommend updating to the new driver first, then flashing the new firmware.
New features for the new firmware / driver:
Best possible low latency performance. Smaller buffers can be selected and still allow for nearly 100% CPU utilization.
Windows ASIO buffer sizes selectable from 32 samples to 8192 samples (previous support was from 32 to 1024 samples).
Full 5.1 channel support on Windows WaveRT (WASAPI; MME; DirectSound).
Elimination of the safety offset for OS X resulting in 128 samples of buffering removed from the audio path.
Fixes LynxRestoreState issue with Build 57A where the wrong scene would be restored on power up.
