The channel mode can be changed within the Lynx Mixer. Click Settings > Advanced >
Adapter Settings, selecting the appropriate Aurora (if multiple are present) and then setting
the desired mode from the “Channels” Selection. Click “Save”. Turn the Aurora OFF then
ON again for the new channel mode to become active.

With multiple Auroras, each can be set to different channel modes if so desired. For instance
if there are three Auroras, but only 16 channels of AES Digital I/O is required, you could set
two Auroras to 16-channel mode, and one to 32-channel mode.

5.6 Device Order

In a multiple Aurora configuration, some of the newer operating systems have a tendency to
cause the order of devices to switch. For instance, on one boot cycle Aurora A will be device
1 and Aurora B will be device 2 within the OS. After a different boot cycle, this may change
so that Aurora B is device 1 and Aurora A is device 2.

The Lynx Mixer has a solution to this dilemma. Please see

8.1.1: Setting Device Order

, for

details.

5.7 Verifying Successful Installation

To verify that the driver was successfully installed and is operational, launch the Lynx Mixer
application. In Windows this can be found at Start > All Programs > Lynx Studio
Technology > Lynx Mixer. In OS X the Lynx Mixer can be found in Applications.

With the Lynx Mixer open, verify that the SYNC SOURCE is on “Internal” Then change the
sample rate from the “Rate Select” combo box in the toolbar from 44.1 kHz to 96 kHz. Make
sure that the SAMPLE RATE on the Aurora front panel responds accordingly.

If the Lynx Mixer will not open, or it opens but you cannot change the sample rate, see

Section 9: Troubleshooting
