Finally: Lexicon announces native plug-in bundle
For algorithmic reverbs (meaning, reverbs not based on a recording of a physical space, but based on a digital process), Lexicon has always been the gold standard of reverbs. If you’ve wanted a Lexicon reverb, you’ve either had to own a Lexicon processor (many thousands of dollars), Pro Tools TDM system, Sonar (which comes with one Lexicon designed reverb) or a Lexicon interface. As a Logic user, none of that helps me too much.
Well, Lexicon has just announced a new PCM reverb native bundle!
Lexicon PCM Native Reverb Bundle
This is incredibly exciting! I can’t wait to demo it. Assuming it uses the actual algos from the hardware, and is not an “also-ran” native offering, this may very well be exactly what the doctor ordered for completely professional in-the-box reverb processing.

I’ve had a few Lexicons, but then again too few to mention, and the two things I really miss are a couple of presets about which most people would probably go “wha?” and think I’m a raving idiot.
One is a small room from a very cheap 80′s unit (LXP1 or something?). It had small room 1 and small room 2.
And the other is (I think) just called Room Ambience from a PCM 70. I’ve worked since then with many other Lexicons, 480s etc, but am happy with what I get from my plugins in Logic, but still miss those two very basic ambiences. There was just something about them.
Do I need to buy this just for those??? Hopefully not.
