REVIEW
With a wealth of features, including DBX high-voltage, ultra low noise mic preamps, Pantheon II reverbs and a powerful software mixing board with DBX dynamics and hardware monitor reverb, the Lexicon I-ONIX FW810S is more than just an 8-in & 10-out FireWire audio interface. It's a professional recording studio contained in a single rack unit.
The high-voltage and ultra low noise DBX mic preamps on every channel provide optimal timbre and tonality on every track. The newly updated Pantheon II plug-in provides smooth and lush Lexicon reverbs for creating ideal sonic spaces.
With built-in DBX Type IV conversion, your digital recordings will preserve their dynamic range even when levels get too high. They'll acquire that forgiving, oversaturated quality once only found on big analog recorders. Type IV conversion actually gives you more headroom, capturing subtle details in higher level signals instead of hard clipping them.
Furthermore, the Lexicon I-ONIX FW810S adds a powerful software mixer with integrated DBX dynamics to your digital audio workstation. This mixer's true-to-life interface design feels familiar from the second you start it, making it easy to adjust levels and route signals through 8 inputs and 10 outputs, apply and preview reverbs as well as dynamics. Moreover, the I-ONIX FW810S does the processing, so you can mix and fine tune your recordings in real time with zero latency. You can even save and load snapshots of mixer settings.
