Universal Audio has released UAD Software version 9.7. The new release adds the Lexicon 480L Digital Reverb and Effects plug-in for UAD hardware and UA Audio Interfaces. Priced at $349, UA say the new plug-in is the world's only Lexicon-endorsed emulation of this classic studio reverb — "capturing its unique, infinitely moldable ambience and modulation splendor".
Released in 1986, the Lexicon 480L Digital Effects System and its iconic fader-driven remote control have resided at the center of famous studio consoles for more than 30 years. The 480L's spacious reverb and vivid effects textures are a coveted sonic benchmark, helping to shape thousands of chart-topping tracks to this day.
In addition to Lexicon's prized reverbs, the Lexicon 480L's random time-varying "Effects" algorithm provides dramatic reverse, doubling, tremolo and chorus sounds. Combined with its unique four-voice Twin Delay algorithm, the Effects algorithm is designed to turn the 480L into a versatile multi-effects system with creative potential.
