Define the sound of an entire era with the **Lexicon 224 Digital Reverb** plug-in. From its groundbreaking release in 1978, the original hardware, with its tactile, slider-based controller and famously lush reverb tail, shaped countless iconic recordings. Now, you can track and mix with this singular piece of audio history, bringing the revered sounds of albums like Talking Heads' *Remain In Light* and U2's The Unforgettable Fire directly to your DAW.

• A Breakthrough in Emulation: The Lexicon 224 plug-in achieves unparalleled authenticity by using the exact algorithms and control processor code from the original hardware. It precisely captures all eight legendary reverb programs and the unique chorus program, all based on the hard-to-find firmware version 4.4. For total fidelity, this emulation also meticulously incorporates the original hardware’s input transformers and early AD/DA 12-bit gain stepping converters, ensuring every nuance is faithfully reproduced.
• Easy Navigation and Deep Control: Every parameter from the original hardware is present and intuitively laid out in the Lexicon 224 plug-in, exposed as dedicated sliders and buttons. Utilize Lexicon’s distinctive Bass/Mid "split decay" adjustments and the Crossover control to set a highly tunable reverb image, while the Treble Decay allows you to roll off high frequencies. The Depth control lets you adjust the perceived distance between the source and the reverb, and Predelay adds a short delay between the sound source and the onset of reverberation. Plus, Diffusion affects how quickly the echo density in the reverb builds up over time, giving you comprehensive control over your sound.
• Modeled to the Last Detail, with Hidden Gems: For total authenticity, the UA-exclusive System Noise control lets you enable or disable the inherent dynamic system noise of the original Lexicon 224 hardware, removing modeled gain stepping, parameter zippering, and quiescent noise if desired. Clicking the “Open” text to the right of the display panel reveals several hidden controls, including Input/Output gain and Pitch Shift. You’ll even find a selectable “Bug Fix” mode which enables or disables historical bug fixes from the Hall B and Chorus programs, offering an unprecedented level of historical accuracy and sonic flexibility. Taken together, the Lexicon 224 plug-in is truly the world’s most authentic model of a true studio classic.
• Mix with Presets from Famous Users: Jumpstart your creative process with expertly crafted presets from famous Lexicon 224 users, including renowned engineers and producers like Chuck Zwicky (known for his work with Prince), Kevin Killen (Peter Gabriel), and many others. These presets provide instant access to iconic sounds, helping you quickly achieve professional, album-ready mixes on drums, vocals, guitars, and more.
