Acousticas has announced the release of its impulse response version of what have managed to manifest itself as the "Studio Standard" throughout many years. Consisting of 711 unique impulse responses this library covers a wide range of the capabilities of the Lexicon 480.
The library has been divided into 9 categories ranging from the complete Lexicon Factory presets to carefully tweaked plates, churches and chambers etc. The "Stereo Maker" category is very special and is exclusively made for providing width to any sound source. A cluster of 4 delays have been assembled to achive this and the delay time is variable by adding multipliers to the delay times.
Besides being compatible with any convolution reverb capable of reading .wav files, Acousticas offers proprietary preset support for the following plug-ins on both Mac and Windows platforms : Altiverb, IR1 & IRL, Revolver, TL-Space, Space Designer, Structure, Kontakt 2 & Kontakt 3.
Pro Tools users receive presets for the Short Delay II Plug-In which emulates the modulation of the actual device. Users of other DAWS are provided with the information, via screen shots of digidesign's Mod Delay II, on how to recreate the modulation within their choice of DAW and plug-in.
The Acousticas L480 IR Library is available now and is priced at €69. Note that many sound demos and a blind test video are provided at :
