Lexicon Offers MP-100 Option for Core2 Audio System

The Core2 System

September 27, 1999 -- Lexicon, Inc., the world's foremost manufacturer of digital effects processors for both live performance and studio/production applications, introduces the MP-100.

The MP-100 incorporates all of the effects and controls from Lexicon's popular MPX 100 Dual Channel Effects Processor on a snap-on card. This option gives true stereo dual-channel processing with hundreds of presets with classic reverb programs such as Ambience, Plate, Chamber and Inverse, as well as Tremolo, Rotary, Chorus, Flange, Pitch, Detune, 5.7 second Delay and Echo. Dual channel processing allows two independent effects in a variety of configurations: Dual Stereo (Parallel), Cascade, Mono Split and Dual Mono.

The MP-100 is the latest option for Lexicon's Core2 Desktop Audio System. The Core2 system provides connections for four channels of analog in, eight channels of analog out, eight channels of ADAT™ digital I/O, and a stereo S/PDIF pair. TOSLINK connectors (mounted directly on the Core2 card) can also be used for S/PDIF connections which require an optical I/O, allowing simultaneous format conversion between, for example, two DATs, one with coaxial (RCA) and one with optical connections. Beyond powerful I/O, audio performance is the highest quality, with ultra wide-range 24-bit A/D and D/A converters with selectable dbx Type IV™ soft-knee limiting on every input channel to simulate tape compression and provide 4dB of improved headroom.

The MP-100 will have a suggested retail price of $149.00
