In the studio, advances in computer-based recording have led many engineers to value the instant control and heads-up use of plug-in effects – but many still yearn for the rich, complex sound found in a dedicated hardware processor. Now, Lexicon provides a USB interface with intuitive cross-platform VST® and Audio Unit plug-in windows, allowing the MX200 to function as a "hardware plug-in" – recognized and functioning within VST and Audio Units-compatible DAWs as a plug-in effect, but still operating as a dedicated hardware unit. This unique USB plug-in feature allows users to easily control the MX200 in their computer-based recordings within the graphical interface that appears in the recording application like a plug-in, with full automation and recall features. Now software-based recording engineers can stay focused on the heart of their studio – the application window of their recording software. A powerful cross-platform Editor/Librarian software package is included as well. MX-Edit™ lets you create, edit, compare, save and load reverb and effects programs for use with your MX200 on your Mac® or Windows® XP computer.
