OT: UAD Lexicon 224 wet signal heavy on the right

[Dave Labrecque]

Well...not using it in SS, but to confirm I just tried it in PT, and the return is balanced. However I do recall some online chatter years ago about the original Lexicon 224 actually being slightly right-heavy inherently, and that UAD was consistent with that in their modeling. But I don't ever recall the plugin being noticeably out of balance in any DAW I've used it with. Not to the point of distraction, at least. And I still do use it frequently in music mixes.

Hi Sean,

Interesting.

What I'm hearing isn't subtle. Any chance you could do a little test and see if you don't perceive heavy-right-side early reflections in your 100% wet stereo field for almost all the reverb programs? Mono source, of course, of course. (nonsequitur Mr. Ed humor) Thanks!

Currently swamped but I'll try to give it a go later in the week. I'm curious as to whether the plugin previously worked fine for you and just started this behavior recently.

Wish I knew. I've never noticed it before. But, then, I haven't used this plugin much before. Not sure if I've ever listened to the 100% wet signal.

Thanks.
