Hi,
I would like to ask a question about the Lynx AES16(http://www.lynxstudio.com/aes16.html) audio interface.
It has "multi-channel A/D and D/A converters" does it means I can also connect to it analog gear?
Thanks!

You can connect most cards to analogue gear. I guess what youre asking is can you do it with outboard FX etc. That depends on how many analogue inputs/outputs you have. Its a tricky situation as latency can be awkward in this method.

I have a nord lead with 2 analog balanced 1\4" outs.
can it be connected? (I will probably need to buy 1\4" to xlr cable)
Thanks.

It has cabling for AES/EBU connection (Digital I/O) and proprietary D-Sub cables to be connected to Mackie, Yamaha and Apogee digital consoles. There is no Analog I/O.[/quote]

If you are looking for an extremely high-end sound card I'd go with Metric Halo, Apogee, RME or a Motu/M-Audio with Black Lion modifications.

If I cant connect analog gear so what does "A/D and D/A converters" stand for?
I have googled it and still didnt quite understand.
Please help. Thanks again.

Here is what the website says:

I couldn't find anything that said that the card itself had A/D or D/A.
