Lexicon MX500

The Lexicon MX500 Reverb Processor is - get this - a hardware plug-in. This innovative idea from Lexicon allows their top of the line MX500 to plug into your computer via FireWire and appear in your DAW as an insert without draining your CPU. Since Lexicon's reverb algorithms eat CPU like Takeru Kobayashi in a hot dog contest, this feature is a very good thing.

Stay tuned to Gearwire for more very good things from the 123rd AES in New York City.

Umm, could that have been

By: Anonymous Coward
Umm, could that have been any more useless? Since when does using a Lexicon hardware unit crash a computers CPU ? Oh yeah, before since before the MX500...I'd expect better from Lexicon...no?
