The driver can be configured to start in 32-channel mode now.  If you select that mode in Lynx Mixer, you will see all 32-outputs right now.  Because you don't have a LS-ADAT connected to the AES16e, they just don't go anywhere.  Short answer: Yes.  You can do low latency monitoring from the AES inputs to the ADAT outputs and vice-versa.
Thank you,

Ok, so let's suppose that I will be lucky and find a used LS-Adat card. If I connect the LS card to my aes16e will I see other 16 adat outs? And if yes, could I route all 16 zero latency input signals from the aes card? It is a little bit cumbersome, but should work, no?

The LT-ADAT would not add any channels at all and would not help you. The LS-ADAT, when connected to your AES16e card would add 16 channels of ADAT I/O to your existing 16 channels of AES. The LS/LT-ADAT cards are discontinued though so it may be a little tricky to get a hold of one. 

Good luck!

Hi Paul. I'm implementing a personal monitoring system over cat5 in my studio and I need 16 out routed in 16 in of the powerplay, then digitally converted in a single cat5 for 16 ch. audio distribution to 6 personal mixers. Unfortunately the outs (tape outs) of my old console (Soundcraft TS12) are occupied. I would to ask you if it's useful to purchase an additional LT-ADAT to have more output routing options. I have Lynx Aurora on Aes16e with new Lynx mixer. I should be able to see more adat outputs on the mixer, right? If not, how can I "add" more outputs for the analog inputs of the powerplay?

Thank you and keep your purism. ;)

The AES16e cards and Hilo use different ASIO drivers, and there is no way to use different ASIO drivers with a single app in Windows. 

You could take one of the AES outputs that not goes to an Aurora and use that for a Hilo instead. It would require some cable changes. 

Or, if you can find a used LS-ADAT card (they are discontinued), you could connect that to one of your AES16e cards and connect to the Hilo via ADAT Lightpipe.

Thank you, David. So now I have two Lynx Aurora 16 (VT and 1824) connected via aes16e, but I was thinking to buy also Lynx Hilo to have an hi res monitoring reference (I've two pair of monitor) and hi res phones reference. Is it possible to connect both Auroras and Hilo and create a unique mixer in a unique asio instance? I use Reaper on Windows 7. If yes, how can I could connect the Hilo to my analog console (Soundcraft TS12 with EDAC connections) and finally have a good monitor reference?

Aurora Remote Control will show you the serial number and the type of each Aurora connected.  If it is a /VT or /1824, it will show you in About Aurora Remote Control.

Green.  It means the product is RoHS compliant.  No Lead.

A master clock isn't neccesary but you can use one if you wish. 

Without a master clock, you could clock one of these ways:

1. Aurora #1 on "INT". Aurora #2 on "EXT", and a wordclock cable connecting wordclock Out from #1, to wordclock in on #2. Both AES16e's set to "Digital In 1"
2. AES16e #1 on "Internal" and AES16e #2 on "header". Our ICC internal clock cable would connect from the Clock Out of #1 to Clock In of #2. Both Auroras' SYNC SOURCE set to "AES A"

If you use a master clock, you would connect wordclock out to each of the Auroras. Set the Auroras to "EXT" and the AES16e cards to "Digital In 1"

Ok, I'll buy a second Aes16e card. I've Antelope external clock, I have to clock only the two Aurora connected to the two aes, right? Not also the aes16e.

That would probably be the last suggestion on the list.  You cannot use two LT-FW cards in the same computer and have them show up as a single ASIO device.  Only the PCI & PCI Express cards (and the LT-TB) can do that.

Ok. Last question (sorry!): If I link the two Auroras via Firewire with two LT-FW for each Aurora? There are some limitations?

Yes, with the above limitation.  Hardware monitoring is what 'zero latency monitoring' is.

Ok. Is it possible to have a zero latency monitoring with aes16e?

Both AES16e cards would appear in the same mixer application.  The only limitation is you cannot cross inputs and outputs from one card to another with hardware monitoring.  You can do that with software monitoring.

Then could I share the same mixer up to 32 ch?
