Chapter 27: Lexicon 224
P8 Constant
Density Plate A
In naturally occurring reverb, new reflections are continuously added to the
decaying sound over time. This sonic build-up increases density and colora-
tion in the reverb tail. P8 Constant Density Plate A has high initial density and
coloration (giving a “plate” type of sound), however the density does not in-
crease over time and remains inherently constant. This can result in less
“swoosh” in the reverb tail and provides another creative option.
and true stereo input are unavailable in this program (inputs are al-
ways summed to mono, even in stereo-in/stereo-out configurations).
P9 Chorus A
The Chorus A program is an eight-voice chorus with four voices on each ste-
reo channel. Each voice has a time delay which varies randomly and inde-
pendently, resulting in a thick, rich sound.
When Chorus is active, each of the first four sliders controls the gain level for
a stereo pair of voices. The sliders are linear faders, not log faders, so the de-
fault positions of all four sliders (about 1/2 way up) correspond to gains 6 dB
below maximum.
The first two voice pairs have overlapping delay ranges. Phasing/flanging ef-
fects can be achieved by setting their gains to similar levels. Phasing/flanging
can also be achieved (with a mono or centered input) when the left and right
channels are mixed together, such as when used in a mono-in/mono-out con-
figuration.
The
control is active in this program. Diffusion acts upon the third
and fourth pair of stereo voices, producing a cluster of tightly spaced echoes
whose shape is governed by the Diffusion control. The Lexicon 224 is one of
the few processors that has diffusion on chorus voices; this feature is a pri-
mary factor in its distinctive character.
Note:
The Bass, Mid, Crossover, and Treble Decay behaviors are unavail-
able in P9 Chorus A. Instead, each of these sliders controls the level of a ste-
reo voice pair.
MIMO Program
Outputs
When Lexicon 224 is used in a mono-in/mono-out (“MIMO”) configuration,
the hardware outputs that are used for the plug-in are listed in
. These software assignments are per the guidelines in the original
hardware manual and cannot be modified.
