Product Overview

The Hilo is a reference A/D D/A converter system. It provides two channels of mastering quality analog to digital conversion, up to eight channels of digital to analog conversion, a secondary monitor output, and a world class independent headphone amplifier in a compact half-rack size. Hilo’s 480 x 272 touchscreen provides a flexible and intuitive interface that can adapt to a particular application and be easily upgraded with enhancements and new features. Initial front panel controls support extensive signal routing and mixing, sample rate selection, clock source options, levels, metering and diagnostic features.

Hilo has 12 total inputs, 16 total outputs plus 32 channels possible via its LSlot port. The unit's FPGA powers its internal 32 channel mixer, which allows Hilo to offer the most versatile I/O and routing in the two channel converter genre. The digital or analog inputs can be routed to three separate outputs, Line Output (with 8 trim settings), Monitor Output, and Headphone Output. The Monitor and Headphone Outputs have volume controls, accessible via faders on the touchscreen or the single knob on the front (offering control in ½ dB increments)

Utilizing Hilo's 480 x 272 pixel LCD Screen, the recently added stereo 30-band real time spectrum analyzer has the capabilities of standalone units that can cost $1000 or more. Utilizing the standard AES designated frequencies and standards, this is a great added tool for Hilo. You have the option of two display styles, Rainbow (shown above) or Standard Meter colors. The Peak hold can be set at Auto (refreshed every second) or Manual, where the peak hold indicators are reset using a button on the screen. You can also boost or cut the program material in 3dB increments for the best viewing.

The RTA is a fourth available meter screen, along with the Analog VU, Horizontal and All I/O options.

With the help of Lynx's distributors, they have developed completely translated Menu Sets in several languages, including full menu support in French, Spanish, German and Chinese. Again, the innovative touchscreen allows Hilo to offer a feature not available on any other converter.

All menus, sub menus, meters and other screens have been translated for Version 7. More languages will be in development with your help.
