Great video. I've just got the 224 on demo for 14 days as it's been price reduced to £89 from £324 in the UK. I think I'm going to buy it. I owned a PCM80 in the nineties and love the Lexicon sound.
Unfortunately some of us have the 224 but 75% or more of the video was on the 480L. Someone below said not to much difference in sound but the 480 appear to have more presets. This may appear true to them because the 224 was harldy demostrated compared to the 480L. .
Respectfully, you might have tried an alternative way to review 'verb.. The drums have already been processed, you can hear the room on the (very) compressed snare, so that's not a good source. Maybe using completely dry drums, or a drum machine, might have been a good alternative. Also, using reverbs appropriate to the types of applications one would expect...so, instead of drums in a hall, which is almost never done, maybe drums in a room, or ambience, chamber, or a plate, for example
Nice review but the snare drum sounds really grainy (8-bit sample?), so, unfortunately, it makes the reverb sound like it's breaking up a bit. Shame they're only on UAD platform as it's limited to their hardware. The Relab 480 version covers both units, I think.
The 224 “ambience” or “Ambient” preset is my go to on synths and swells. Automating Things to swell into it create this amazing tail

How much is DSP usage difference between both plug-ins?
I am using a Mac Pro tower early 2012 westmere 3.33ghz, so on this computer it may be different than others.
look up uad dsp chart
Nice! Love the info on reverb!
Glad you like it!
So if I hear well there is no too much diffferences in sound but 480 contains more presets

This is true- I didn't select completely dry sound, next video I will!
what's your fav? 224 or 480? or at least for instruments ? what's your go to?
I really love the 480 on vocals, for darker verbs on vocals I'd consider 224. Both are amazing.
@@themixclinic1120 thanks!

So the Relab Essentials is like the 224 ?
sounds like its the really loose snare wires.
The Relab cover only the 480L, the essential it's a lite version of the 480L. Not the 224.
Both UAD and Relab sounds phenomenal.
Great video man!
Thanks so much I am getting some more vids uploaded soon!
