quality product for your digital audio requirements.
This manual provides basic information to help you get started. Additional information is available

The LS-AES is an 8-channel AES/EBU or S/PDIF LStream
interface module that is designed for
use with the LynxTWO and L22 professional audio interfaces. The device communicates via Lynx’s
proprietary LStream multi-channel interface.
The internal header LStream port on the LynxTWO/L22 provides support for connecting two LS-
AES internal cards. In this case, the number of AES or S/PDIF channels is doubled.
