Now that you’ve learned a little bit about the LX480 and what it can do, let’s add more tricks to your arsenal. This trick was a staple of the legendary Abbey Road Recording Studio, one of the most successful recording studios of all time. Not only that, but because of the groundbreaking studio work done
How many times have you heard a song and thought to yourself: “Damn, that’s a great snare”? And a great snare sound can sometimes be pretty elusive. You can end up throwing everything but the kitchen sink on it, and still not get the sound you’re looking for. But one thing is for sure…when you
Get that big, wide vocal sound you want with Relab Development’s LX480. It can drive a person crazy, trying to get their vocals to sit just right. It’s one of the hardest, and sometimes most frustrating, things to do while mixing. And contrary to what you might think, having a lot of different tools doesn’t
The LX480 offers the best of the Lexicon 480L, but with even more modern features and functionality. Want to maximize your LX480’s potential?

Is there anything quite as magical as the sound of a voice or instrument floating through a large space like a concert hall? It’s how humanity has enjoyed live music for centuries. Because of their natural size, Hall reverbs often have very long decays. And their strong early reflections help give a sense of “air”
Sound is an incredibly broad and complex subject. You can ask 5 different engineers to mix the same piece of music, and you will get 5 different interpretations. But that is also what makes music so interesting…it is completely subjective. Just as painters do with colors, mixers and producers interpret the concepts of ‘space’ and
Let’s start at the beginning to see what makes it so special. Some of the first artificial reverbs ever used in recording were created using plates (and springs). And based on their name, they work pretty much exactly how one might think… Plate reverb comes from a steel plate, under tension by springs, vibrated
