UTILIZATION

Using a relatively simple ... The publisher is still welcome ...
Who does the head regularly on the effects, the manual is obsolete, except for "routing" comprehensive but confusing (no summary diagram based on the number called ...).

SOUND QUALITY

The effects are pretty uneven ... There are some nice reverbs, a time that sounds good ... The dynamic effects are, how shall I say, entry level, too late in adjusting to achieve a specific result ... But hey, when you take a Lexicon multi effects, we look mainly reverbs, compressors not ...
The sound is generally correct, some reverbs are very good. Heat large processor brand is a bit lacking, but it's not as cold as what some would have us believe, and in terms of reflection, some Japanese fashion effects sound much more "metal" and chemical. And we must adapt the presets that it is ....

OVERALL OPINION

This is an entry-level effect, so do not expect this little MX200 with the sound of a 960L ... I was looking for a little reverb to listen to the recorded catches hot, give them a small spatial, not to lead me to give color to customers. This small multi-purpose fulfilled its function perfectly, some reworked presets can even get into the final mix ... A good little machine troubleshooting, which will fill his role very well live, the sound is good, but did not reach the heights of the brand, PCM70, 480, 960, and many others who shaped the image Lexicon.

I do not agree with those who say that this device does not ring, reverb presets are correct, and acceptable delay ... For the rest ... In any case, a perspective reverb is better than 01V96 ... Stay in the reverb time compatible with the type of preset selected, the rooms of 4.5 s, it may not sound ... Or with a NonLin2 (but the check is not the same ...)

This effect is dedicated to those who do not stretch the budget, which are ready to go in the presets to suit their needs, and know tastefully dose levels of effects to give the feeling of third dimension to their mix ....

There are better, but so much more ....
