Lexicon 224

Universal Audio

Where to get itAvailable from Universal Audiouaudio.com

The Lexicon 224 Digital Reverb is a plug-in emulation of the legendary 1978 hardware reverberator, using the exact algorithms and firmware 4.4 code from the original unit. The plug-in models all hardware details including input transformers, 12-bit gain stepping converters, and system noise, making it a precise recreation of the original hardware's capabilities.

Written from the manual and checked against it. How we check

Key Features

01Split-decay Bass and Mid controls with Crossover frequency selection
02Treble Decay, Depth, Predelay, and Diffusion controls
03Mode Enhancement with adjustable Amount and Pitch Shift
04Decay Optimization for improved clarity with input-dependent response

06Four discrete outputs (A, B, C, D) with Rear Outs switching
07Hidden controls including Input/Output Gain, Pitch Shift, Bug Fixes, and Display Hold

Things to Try

  • 01Use P2 Vocal Plate or P5 Percussion Plate A with Bass and Mid set to relatively close values for the most natural sound
  • 02Set Diffusion to values near 32–37 for the fastest density buildup, or use lower Diffusion (around 10–20) with strings, horns, and vocals for a clear, bright sound
  • 03In P4 Acoustic Chamber, set Depth to zero for the most chamber-like sound and shorter reverb times of 2 to 5 seconds
  • 04Reduce Input Gain to prevent processor overflow when using long decay times, as indicated by the Overflow LED
