Lynx Studio Technology is a professional audio manufacturer based in Costa Mesa, California, founded in 1998 by hardware engineer Bob Bauman and software engineer David A. Hoatson. The company specializes in high-resolution audio interfaces, AD/DA converters, and digital I/O cards aimed at recording studios, mastering engineers, broadcasters, and audiophiles. Lynx built its reputation on transparent conversion and rock-solid driver stability, with early PCI cards like the AES16 becoming long-running fixtures in pro studios.

The current product line centers on the Aurora(n), a modular 1U converter available in 8, 16, 24, and 32-channel configurations with interchangeable LSlot cards for Thunderbolt, Pro Tools HD, Dante, USB, and other formats. The Hilo 2 is a touchscreen-driven AD/DA converter and reference monitoring controller used in mastering and mixing applications, while the Mesa is a Thunderbolt 3 desktop interface positioned at smaller project studios. Lynx also produces standalone clocks and converters for broadcast and measurement work.

The brand is generally regarded as a high-end alternative to mainstream interface makers, with a smaller catalog focused on conversion quality and longevity rather than bundled software or consumer features. Lynx gear has been used on Grammy-winning records and is commonly found in mastering chains and reference monitoring setups.

Lynx has 29 products cataloged on Equipboard, including A-D & D-A Converters, Audio Interfaces, and Solid Body Electric Guitars. Their gear is featured by 31 artists, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Pop, and Rock. Notable users include Kevin Parker, Tyler Joseph, and Aphex Twin.
