Stereo/Phase meters for ensuring mono compatibility.Graphical real-time display for visualizing the effect in different ways.Formats that work seamlessly in any AAX, VST, Audio Unit, or RTAS compatible DAW.
Multi-platform compatibility: Windows ® XP, Vista, and 7 Mac ® OSX 10.4 - 10.9 PowerPC and Intel (32 & 64-bit).14 sonically brilliant Lexicon effect algorithms.Input and output meters are included, in addition to a graphical EQ section for easy adjustment of both early and late reflections. Each algorithm can be run in mono, stereo, or a combination of the two. Copy protection is via iLok.At for the bundle, the PCM Native Reverb is clearly aimed at the more serious user, including music professionals and post‑production, though it should also appeal to the project studio owner who might previously have considered Lexicon hardware.
The plug‑ins can be used cross‑platform (Windows XP, Vista, and 7 are supported, along with Mac OS 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6 on Power PC and Intel machines) in VST, Audio Units, and RTAS formats, with parameter automation supported as long as the host DAW permit it. PCM Native Reverb is presented as a suite of seven plug‑ins, each offering a specific ‘space’ algorithm.
In response to the ‘everything in the box’ direction being taken by many recording engineers, Lexicon has finally produced a software reverb based on their high‑end algorithms, including some taken from their acclaimed PCM range. Convolution reverbs can capture the sound of some hardware reverb presets, but they can’t translate the time‑dependent Spin and Wander modulation parameters that make up an essential part of the Lexicon sound, so though you may find web sites offering impulse responses taken from such machines, they’ll never sound like the real thing. DAW users have access to some excellent convolution reverbs, but so‑called synthetic reverb such as that created by Lexicon’s algorithms offers a quite different character that’s well suited to contemporary music production and that can be edited to a far greater extent.
Lexicon’s high‑end reverb hardware has been a mainstay of record production for more than a generation, and until now there hasn’t been a direct software equivalent.
