The Prism Sound Lyra 2 is a compact yet reference-grade audio interface that delivers the same uncompromising AD/DA conversion found in Prism’s flagship systems, packed into a portable chassis suitable for both studio and mobile use. Derived from the acclaimed Orpheus’ audio path and clock circuitry, Prism Sound Lyra 2 is designed for users who require fewer I/O channels but refuse to compromise on transparency, detail, and sonic accuracy.
Equipped with two class-A microphone preamps, Prism Sound Lyra 2 ensures recordings of the highest quality, capturing performances with precision and clarity. Its analogue inputs include Prism Sound’s proprietary Overkiller soft-clip limiting, which absorbs transients gracefully and enables signals to be pushed hard without the risk of unwanted distortion.
With its four analogue outputs, versatile digital connectivity, and integrated word-clock sync, Prism Sound Lyra 2 provides flexibility for a wide range of recording and monitoring applications. Control is managed through the Lyra software panel, allowing comprehensive adjustment of sync sources, sample rates, metering, and buffer modes, while the front panel offers immediate visual feedback.
Prism’s exclusive Verifile technology ensures integrity of audio files by detecting errors, clicks or dropouts without affecting the sound or metadata, making Prism Sound Lyra 2 equally at home in critical mastering, archiving, and professional mix environments.
