Anybody know or can you even know without knowing the exact system specs
which will have lower input & output latency ....A RME 9652 or Lynx Two A?

There are no (reliable) specifications on latency. You just have to
try it. I'd say it would be a tossup, and that either could be
adjusted low enough so that either you wouldn't have a problem or
you'd have a problem you can't get rid of.

Understand that there are many kinds of latency - A/D, D/A, D/D, MIDI-
in-to-Audio-out, and the driver and your computer contribute to the
time delay. About the only (sometimes published) numbers that you can
compare is the minimum number of samples that you can buffer, but your
system may not work well with that setting.

I'm a Lynx fan, mostly because their stuff sounds good (I have an L22)
and they're just so darn nice to me. But RME makes good hardware and
drivers too, and I really think it comes down to features and your
confidence in the company.

Thats all too logical. thanks for the reply!

The RME being digital I/O only doesn't have
onboard converters. This leads me to believe
that it would have a lower latency on it's own
but when combined with (whatever) converters
may have a greater latency when compared to the
Lynx as an A/D-D/A.

ps - Andy, did you know Max Vague ?

The Lynx interfaces have had relatively low latency because
they weren't DSP-based, but rather were random logic-based.

IIRC, the Hammerfall (RME 9652) is capable of measuring and
compensating for latency 'on-the-fly' when tracking with plugs.

Or, conversely, they may have about the same latency when using the
digital I/O of the Lynx.
