Add the Sound of an Era-Defining Reverb

From Talking Heads' Remain In Light to U2's The Unforgettable Fire, the Lexicon 224 remains one of the most popular digital reverb units ever made, with its lush reverb tails. Now you can track and mix with this singular piece of audio history with the Lexicon 224 Reverb plug-in.

Experience a Breakthrough in Emulation

Using the exact algorithms and control processor code from the original hardware, the Lexicon 224 plug-in gives you the precise sound of legendary reverb and chorus programs as well as the tone of the vintage hardware's input transformers and early AD/DA 12-bit gain stepping converters.

Get Sounds Quickly with Easy Navigation

Every parameter from the original hardware is present in the Lexicon 224 plug-in, and exposed as dedicated sliders and buttons, so you can find the perfect reverb, and quickly season to taste.

Hear Every 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 — letting you remove the modeled gain stepping, parameter zippering, and noise of the original unit for quieter operation.

What They Say

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

Convolution reverbs can be great, but they don't offer the direct, simple path of adjusting a parameter on the Lexicon 224. I'm glad to have an old friend back.

Jerry Harrison

Talking Heads, No Doubt, Violent Femmes

When I began mixing 'in the box' I missed the Lexicon 224 [more than anything else]. Now it's back, with that dense, flutter-free reverb that I love so much.

Eric "E.T." Thorngren

Bob Marley, Robert Palmer, Talking Heads

    Wonderful Reverb

    This is an indispensable reverb. I'm kicking myself for waiting so long to pick this up.

    Fine!

    With this plugin you can create a fine, warm hall space, in which details are preserved; sounds very good also in combination with Ocean Way Deluxe: Ocean Way emulates the room, Lexicon 224 the "Shimmer" above...

    Great lo-fi reverb.

    By modern standards it's a very lo-fi reverb. However, if that's what you need, then you're on the right track. I wouldn't use it for rooms, plates and everything else where a dense reverb is needed. But it's good for large spaces.
