if anyone have this soundcard, can you please help me with this problem? i can only record up to 24/48 in vegas video, acid pro, cubase sx. i have the latest drivers from the website. the 021,022,023 drivers are the right ones right? i can't set it for 24/96 in the mixer, i can only set it in a third party program. what can i do? if anyone has this card, what software do you record into?
 
The Lynx One's A/D/A converters are only capable of 48K.

You need an external A/D/A for 96K. The card will support it only via the digital I/O.

thanks sonusman

so i would need something like that lucid time clock and converter that cyan jaguar was selling? i'm only interested in running my vocals through the card. investing in something like that may not be worth it for the task i'm doing, as to say the soundcard itself can record 24/48 right? i mean the little extra boost is good but is it significant at this point. i don't have any real gear to take advantage of that extra info. i'm recording through an at4050, through the mackie 1202, into the lynxone. everything is being tracked and mixed either in cubase or sonicfoundry. i'm using sonic foundries and waves plugins for mixing. i hear they are the best from a lot of people on this forum. being said, would an extra piece of gear to help me record 96 instead 48 be sufficient at this stage of my recording,(meaning i don't have any hardware converters only software converters to process my effects.)? i hope i'm not confusing anyone.
 
Well, first off, most applications cannot use mixed sample rates within the same project. So, if you other audio is at say 48KHz, you would not be able to record vocals at 96 anyway.

Second, I don't think in the end that you are going to hear a significant difference between 48KHz and 96KHz sampling rate. Yes, there would be a slight difference, and certainly if you could do your whole project at 96KHz that would probably make a nice little difference in the overall quality. But, I have used 48KHz sampling rate for some time now and seem to get very acceptable results.

The Lynx One card has very good A/D/A converters on it. Better than most soundcards on the market has in my opinion. It isn't JUST the converter chip that is the difference. Lynx developers did a very good job in the analog end of things too. I think you will be able to achieve very good results with that card, even with it's "limited" 48KHz max sampling rate.

Good luck.
