PCM 96 REVIEW IN FUTURE MUSIC: 'COVER ALL BASES WITH ONE MACHINE'
1st October '08

"That Lexicon have been at the top of the digital reverb market for 30 years should tell you something about the quality of the algorithms they use. This is a very fine unit that stands pretty much alone".

The newest addition to the PCM range, The PCM 96, is reviewed in the latest issue of Future Magazine and is rewarded a very respectable 9 out 10 in its 'Build', 'Versatility' and 'Results' categories.

An artful blend of heritage and innovation, the PCM96 Stereo reverb/Effects Processor delivers 28 new and legendary Lexicon reverbs, delays and modulation effects straight into your DAW. Appearing for the first time are new Room and Hall algorithms, plus an assortment of new mono reverbs and effects. With decades of legacy products to pull from, the PCM96 also includes the finest collection of factory presets available in a stereo processor - over 1200 and growing - including some recognizable classics from our immense library of sounds.

"I'm very pleased to report that it sounds just like a Lexicon reverb! That is, big and warm, and as you move from patch to patch, alternately bright and sparkling to deep and dark. Lexicon have a vast vault of great-sounding reverbs to plunder and they have used it to very good effect here".

"It does what I would expect of it and has some great new additions, such as an infinite reverb, which allows you to trap the 'tail' of the reverb, holding a chord or making a drone, from any sound. There are all the old classics such as the Concert Hall and Room simulations, and even the Resonant Chord algorithm, which is hours of fun".

"If you regularly use a hardware unit live or in recordings through an analogue or digital console, the PCM96 will give you excellent results and slot right in to your setup. If you tend to 'mix in the box' it will open up possibilities for you that other purely hardware or software units simply cant do".
