Lexicon® 224 Digital Reverb
-
An era-defining digital reverb.
From the moment it was unleashed in 1978, the Lexicon 224 Digital Reverb — with its tactile, slider-based controller and famously lush reverb tail — single-handedly defined the sound of an entire era.
From Talking Heads' Remain In Light to U2's The Unforgettable Fire, the Lexicon 224 remains one of the most popular digital reverb units of all time. Now you can track and mix with this singular piece of audio history with the Lexicon 224 Reverb plug-in.Versions incluses

UAD Quick Tips
In this video, learn how to thicken lead vocals, tighten up drum loops, and give synths stunning ambience with the Lexicon 224.
A Breakthrough in Emulation
Using the exact algorithms and control processor code from the original hardware, the Lexicon 224 plug-in precisely captures all eight legendary reverb programs and the chorus program — based on the Lexicon 224's final and hard-to-find firmware version 4.4. The Lexicon 224 plug-in also incorporates the original hardware’s input transformers and early AD/DA 12-bit gain stepping converters.
Easy Navigation
Every parameter from the original hardware is present in the Lexicon 224 plug-in, and exposed as dedicated sliders and buttons. Lexicon’s distinctive Bass/Mid “split decay” adjustments and Crossover control set the highly tunable reverb image, while the Treble Decay rolls off high frequencies. Use the Depth control to adjust the distance between source and reverb, while Predelay produces a short delay between the sound source and the onset of reverberation. Diffusion affects how quickly the echo density in the reverb builds up over time.
Modeled to the Last Detail
For total authenticity, the UA-exclusive System Noise control enables or disables the inherent dynamic system noise of the original Lexicon 224 hardware — removing the modeled gain stepping, parameter zippering, and quiescent noise. Clicking the “Open” text to the right of the display panel exposes several hidden controls, including Input/Output gain and Pitch Shift, and even a selectable “Bug Fix” mode which enables/disables historical bug fixes from the Hall B and Chorus programs. Taken together, the Lexicon 224 plug-in is the world’s most authentic model of a true studio classic.
“My love affair with the Lexicon 224 continues unabated. UA has done a tremendous job bringing this original classic into the software realm.”
– Kevin Killen (U2, Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush)
“The UAD Lexicon 224 Digital Reverb is stunning on vocals. It brings dynamics, without smearing anything. It breathes magic into a track.”
– Armin Van Buuren
“I can remember the first time I heard a Lexicon 224, the excitement from that huge sound and its haunting beauty. When I listen to this plug-in I'm transported to that place.”
– Chuck Zwicky (Prince, Soul Asylum, Reggie Watts)
“Warm, lush and detailed with the right amount of vintage is the perfect way to describe the UAD Lexicon 224. ”
– Ivan Barias (Musiq Soulchild, Jill Scott, Estelle)
“The UAD Lexicon 224 plug-in is excellent for fattening up sounds.”
– The Glitch Mob
“I'm very familiar with how the Lexicon 224 sounds and the UAD plug‑in is an amazing replication!”
– Jeff Balding (Taylor Swift, The Eagles, Florida Georgia Line)Watch The Reviews

Seems better than the original
I never liked Lexicon reverbs when they were the big guy in town. They were a massive standard, and well, sounded... standard, which, in music production, is a very bad idea. In this plugin form, lost among many, many others, they have a place and a distinct personality, which make them usable again.

Excellent (what else could it be)
Very good late 70's type of lexicon sound.
It isn't 480 though, it is somewhat different sound. I think you need both.J. Pena
Just really good
The very first thing I used this on when I got the demo was on vocals for a old style bluesy rock song. I had to mess with it for a little to get a sound I liked, but when I got it there, it sounded really good. It sounded like the vocal and reverb just blended into each other in a way that I never got from any other reverb plugin that I own. By the way for me to get that sound I send a slap delay (galaxy echo) into the reverb, and I also blended in a little bit of the pure plate verb. After I heard that, I purchased the 224 the next day.
A. Pradier
Excellente Reverb!
Il y a pas à dire, cette reverb sonne très bien et elle est très flexible sur les voix et instruments.
Comme d'habitude avec la qualité UAD.
Je vous la recommande.M. Woods
Quality
I just run my vocals through the Lexicon 224 Digital Reverb…job done!
I don’t spend a lot of time tweaking parameters..no need..default is excellent..just take it out of solo . The soundscape possibilities are endless.

Five star
I just bought this plugin and I'm blown away by the difference compared to other Lexicon plugins out there. It's a game-changer, I love it !!

Really worthwhile
Not required of you have an outboard Lexicon of any standing, just use an insert and introduce your old effects unit into your workflow. Even an old LXP1 or Alex had this vibe. Gets the PCM70
Vibe though which is a lovely flavor.
I preferred it to the 480L when you want to really hear the reverb but the 480L lets you create incredibly long sound design type tails. You don’t need this though if you use Convology XT (free) or any other IR reverb so it’s really for those who always wanted a 480L which I am one too. I do really like the interface with the faders right there, you can’t get around the research that was done into the original user interface but falls short in that midi control should be implemented clearly so you can assign controls to emulate this workflow. Bigtime missed opportunity here but that’s the problem with the plugin world. Not enough synergy between the tactile and mouse worlds. Anyway, it’s the UAD reverb plugin to get for the old school studio reverb unit vibe.S. bagman

I would love to... But it doesn't work...
I have paid and downloaded The Lexicon Software. It worked for a day... then ceased to work... I contacted UA support, who basically said it was a problem with ILok. My understanding is that it needs to be licensed and UA don't seem that willing to do so... Very sad... I will update this review if things change.... But for now... That's where i am... I will get a refund from the credit card peole if i can...
