A breakthrough in emulation The Universal Audio Lexicon 224 Digital Reverb plug-in is a true game-changer for emulating the classic hardware. It utilizes the exact algorithms and control processor code from the original Lexicon 224 allowing it to replicate all eight renowned reverb programs and the chorus program. What sets this plug-in apart is that it is based on the Lexicon 224s final firmware version 4.4 which is notoriously hard to find. Additionally it also includes the original hardwares input transformers and early AD/DA 12-bit gain stepping converters. With the Lexicon 224 plug-in you can achieve the same iconic sound as the original hardware but with the convenience and flexibility of a digital format. Easy navigation Every parameter from the original hardware is conveniently accessible through dedicated sliders and buttons. You have full control over Lexicons signature Bass/Mid “split decay” adjustments allowing you to finely tune the reverb image. The Crossover control further enhances the flexibility of the reverb enabling you to modify the frequency response. To shape the decay of high frequencies the Treble Decay control comes into play. Adjusting the Depth control allows you to determine the perceived distance between the sound source and the reverb. In contrast the Predelay control introduces a short delay before the reverberation kicks in. Lastly the Diffusion control affects the rate at which the echo density in the reverb builds up over time. With these intuitive controls you have complete command over the nuances of your reverb sound. Modelled to the last detail To ensure the utmost authenticity the Universal Audio Lexicon 224 plug-in goes the extra mile to recreate the quirks of the original hardware accurately. The UA-exclusive System Noise control allows you to enable or disable the inherent dynamic system noise found in the original Lexicon 224. By doing so it removes any modelled gain stepping parameter zippering and quiescent noise providing a cleaner and more refined sound. For those who want to delve deeper into the plug-ins capabilities hidden controls are available by clicking the “Open” text next to the display panel. These controls include Input/Output gain and Pitch Shift adjustments. Furthermore the Lexicon 224 plug-in offers a selectable “Bug Fix” mode which allows you to enable or disable historical bug fixes from the Hall B and Chorus programs.
