![]() Reverb time is set using the Bass and Mid decay controls, while turning on the quantisation noise introduces some extremely subtle enharmonic noise components that would almost certainly be completely buried in a typical mix. As Depth is increased, the reverb tail dominates the sound, with the impression of the direct sound's contribution becoming more diminished. The Depth parameter changes the apparent listening position within the room, higher settings equating to being at the rear of the room. Clicking on Options provides input and output gain controls, the option to view or disable the real-time analysis display, and the option to include or omit quantisation noise. RC24 has fader controls for Pre-delay, Depth, Intensity (of modulation), Bass, Mid and Hi-cut, plus rotary controls selecting one of four modulation types and the bass/mid crossover frequency. Both models have a Wet/Mix switch and a Mix control that is greyed out when Wet is selected. ![]() Both plug-ins have very similar interfaces featuring six sliders, although the function of these differs slightly. It also incorporates some useful modulation options to mimic the Spin and Wander parameters that Lexicon developed to reduce metallic resonances and add complexity to their reverb tails. RC48 provides just two hall algorithms, Hall and Random Hall, with control over all the usual parameters, plus Diffusion and Spread controls. RC24 offers Large Hall, Small Hall and Room emulation programs, and models the old-school 12-bit converter sound of the original. NI RC24.Like the original that it seeks to emulate, RC24 creates a rich, flattering sound with a hint of grit, while RC48 adds a little more density and realism. ![]() All the common plug-in platforms on Mac and Windows are supported: VST, AU, RTAS and AAX. As the names suggest, these are based on the classic Lexicon 224 and 480L algorithmic digital reverbs the originals were heard on countless records at the end of the last century, and are still popular (and expensive!) today. The Vari Comp compressor, Enhanced EQ and Passive EQ were reviewed in SOS January 2013, and have just been joined by the RC24 and RC48 reverb plug-ins. Native Instruments' latest plug-in suite aims to provide the classic Lexicon reverb sound at a budget-friendly price.Īlhough best-known for their synths and samplers, Native Instruments also have some impressive processors in their portfolio, and have recently joined forces with Softube to develop emulations of some classic studio hardware.
