Lexicon 224 style Reverb ?

I like your question and was going to ask the same thing! I've had the great fortune of working with real Lexicon 224 and 224XL reverbs for some years and it would be very cool to know if anyone has accurately modeled it, or come close to it's very unique sound and reverb tail modulation...

Indeed. We are extremely lucky to have this amount of power to bend to our will. I had the Intellifex, Rocktron Prophesy II, Marshall JMP-1, Roland GP-8 and GP-100, Alesis Quadraverb GT, ADA MP-1, Digitech GSP2120, V-Stack... so many that I forget all of them!

It certainly sounds like we've had a similar experience. Trying different solutions eats up a lot of time and is exhausting. It was only worth it because it cemented some realities for me: 1. Fractal Technology is still years ahead of any other company and while other companies attempt to...

Indeed. Having some templates of the mono and stereo (dual mono) amp setups I normally use and then adding my saved user preset effects from the library is what I've been doing for a while and it's as efficient as things can be for now. I always get this image in my mind of Tom Cruise in...

It's definitely not your standard forum post. It's a summary of a lot of experience, being on the Fractal Audio train from the beginning - from the first Axe-Fx Standard model until now. I also haven't posted anything here in over 7 years, so this is what I have to say after a long silence.

5 Minute Tones

Undulator in my Eventide Eclipse is one of my favorites. Thanks so much for looking under the hood of the Eclipse and re-creating it in the Fractal to your taste. While I had done a version of that myself, I really enjoyed watching you take us through how you set it up with all of your extra stuff!

That's very nice of you to write. Mostly I enjoy what I hear in film soundtracks and I'm not really sure who the composers are a lot of the time. I just like the music I hear in some films and I take that feeling with me when I leave the theatre.
