    Nearly all of today’s laptops and most desktop computers have FireWire ports. With careful design and clever engineering, FireWire provides an excellent interface for high sample rate multichannel audio. In development for over a year, the Lynx LT-FW allows Aurora to be used with FireWire equipped Windows or Mac computers, offering unprecedented audio performance, control and stability.
     
    Imagine having a MacBook Pro, one Aurora converter, a quality multichannel mic preamp and select microphones. Now you have a fully functional 16 track portable recording studio that can fit in the back of a Miata. And you can record at sample rates up to 192 kHz with this rig.

    Aurora 8 (LT-FW) a perfect fit February 17, 2010
    Reviewer: kl from Singapore, Singapore Singapore  
    On the advice of the good people at FrontEnd Audio, I purchased the Aurora 8 with LT-FW installed. The firewire ports defined the ease of use of the Aurora 8, making set up and connection to my Mac a breeze. The LT-FW option was the right choice indeed. Within literally minutes I was good to go. The 8 channels allowed me to mic my drum-kit direct to my DAW, even with an LA-610 in the chain. As well, the unit's slim profile is a great space saver, and facilitated good ventilation in my gear rack. Lynx's reputed A/D conversion was (and still is,) very stable and reassuring, and the well-labeled buttons and LEDs on the front panel are very useful for quick changes and reference, especially when I'm not at the computer. The Aurora 8 has been part of my workflow and production pipeline for 2 months now, and I'm absolutely delighted at its consistency and reliability. Its quality and no-frills approach speaks good design, and great value.

    Thank you for your feedback on this review. We appreciate your input!
