Lexicon 224 HD Library offers HD Multi Impulse Responses from one of the most used Reverb Units on professional recordings during 1979-1990. The original Unit was captured with Lynx Studio Aurora AD/DA Converter and long sine sweep in range from 20 Hz - 32 kHz.
Maximum possible IR quality at lower input levels was achieved through our patented XDC processing (extended 2-pass deconvolution).
- 1.052 Impulse Responses from legendary Reverb Unit
- all 8 Algorithms, available on original unit
- HD resolution IRs (24 bit / 96 kHz)
- extended deconvolution (2-pass for smoothing reverb tail at lower levels)
- multi IRs (30 x 4 per Algorithm)
- 1.052 Presets for Apple Logic Space Designer and Waves IR1
- original factory Presets (9 IRs x 8 Algorithms)
- 20 Xtreme Samples Presets for general purpose (vox, drums, brass etc.)
- easy setup of desired IR through Lexicon Remote-related
- Preset names.

.Based on Waldorf's notable Q-series hardware vocoders, and featuring an integrated 16-voice synthesizer and a multi-effects processor, Lector lets you create everything from classic vocoder effects to whispering strings, talking drum loops, rhythmic pads, resonant bells, dripping water, and much more. Street price is only $199.99.
Lector's 100 discrete bandpass filters can be used to process an external sound source or the signal from the on-board synthesizer---a 16-voice subtractive-style dual-oscillator design with a complement of essential analog waveforms, including sine, triangle, sawtooth, square/variable pulse width, sample and hold, and noise; user-loading of single and multi-samples is also supported. In addition to traditional vocoder parameters, Lector also lets you process the signal with FM and ring modulation, three bands of equalization, and a variety of multi-effects, including tube overdrive, transistor distortion, hard clipping, six-voice chorus/flange, syncable stereo delay, and reverb.

Sep 26 - 09:24 AM | Event > Audio Engineering Society (AES) |
For over 60 years, the AES has been the largest gathering of audio professionals and enthusiasts on the globe, attracting delegates from over 100 countries worldwide.
Workshops, tutorials, technical papers and the exhibition floor provide attendees with a wealth of learning, networking and business opportunities.
New Event Calendar:
With the culmination of fine-tuning for the eagerly awaited 131st AES Convention, comes the posting of the Preliminary Event Calendar. Chock full of descriptive abstracts, dates, times and presenter details, the PEC represents a full year of intensive activity. The volunteer Convention Committee focused on developing timely, meticulously researched and impossible to duplicate: Broadcast/Streaming, Education, Game Audio, Historical, Live Sound, Master Class, Paper, Platinum, Product Design, Special Events, Tech Tours, Tutorials and Workshops. A microcosm of the Convention itself, the AES PEC symbolizes the very best that the pro audio industry and the AES have to offer.

Boost 309 v3 is based on the complete sample set of the vintage, lo-fi but charmingly sounding machine Rave-o-lution 309 by a company named Quasimidi. We have created 90 brand new combinator drum machines for you with these samples. It all ranges from the old original 309 thing to amazing and unique patches that could have never been created within the 309 itself. Besides cool beats and complex, crazy rhythms Boost 309 will offer you even more!
While closing this ReFill we found ourselves putting 210 brand new combinators into this product. Version 3 is a huge update which adds 10 new combinator patches, 20+ 'Bitrman' flavoured rex loops making use of the original Rave-o-lution groovebox recorded thru an Alesis Bitrman fx unit, as well as 15 awesome Kong kits making use of Kong's synthesis methods...
