Aurora 16-VT allows users to manually set the analog input and output levels within a range of +8.5 dBu to +24 dBu. 32 miniature trim pots are mounted on the primary circuit board to allow the adjustments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSince 2004, Aurora has established its position as one of leading high end converters for recording studios around the world. Some studios, that wanted to gain the advantage of Aurora’s pristine audio quality and versatility, also required the ability to manually set the levels for optimum performance. The Aurora 16-VT provides this capability, while preserving Aurora’s other features, specifications and signature transparent sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the Beta testers for the Aurora 16-VT was producer\/engineer Fabrice Dumont, a longtime Aurora owner. According to Fab, “After receiving the trimable version of the Aurora I can tell you that I think it's a winner product. I cannot tell a sonic difference between my regular Auroras and the variable trim one. They sound identical to me. Overall, this option makes replacing my old converters truly seamless. It actually feels like a true upgrade since any mix recalled with the Auroras now gain stages the same as my old converters, but sounds noticeably better.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBob Muller of Dangerous Music was another Beta Tester. “I think the VT is a great feature, and particularly essential to any facilities that are going to be using Auroras in a mastering setup. A lot of mix rooms are branching out into mastering and like to avail themselves of their mix rig I\/O converters for both applications. I was able to calibrate the whole unit to -18dBFS = +4 dBU in under 10 minutes.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal manual trim controls on all analog input and analog output channels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalog input and output levels can be set between +8.5 dBu and +24 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24 bit \/ 192 kHz mastering quality A\/D and D\/A conversion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e192 kHz AES\/EBU I\/O supporting single and dual wire modes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle rack space configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtensive remote control capability via Lynx AES16, IrDA, FireWire and MIDI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn-board 32-channel digital mixer provides flexible I\/O routing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWord clock I\/O with Lynx SynchroLock™ sample clock technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnectivity via PCI, PCI Express with AES16 cards, ADAT, ProToolsHD, FireWire and MADI (mid 2009)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lynx Studio Technology","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449308246119,"sku":"10989","price":2995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/lynx_studio_technology_aurora_16_2.jpg?v=1787088495","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/lynx-studio-technology-aurora-16-vt","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
