Introduction

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Lexicon
With a wealth of features – including dbx
pre's, Pantheon II reverbs, and a powerful hardware mixing board with dbx
dynamics and hardware monitor reverb – the Lexicon IO FW810S is more
than just an 10-in, 12-out FireWire
studio contained in a single rack unit.
Featuring newly designed dbx
phone preamps on every channel, the IO FW810S is more than equipped
to provide professional recordings that keep your music sounding its best.
The preamps run on a 60V supply to guarantee stability and provide you
with a superior recording across a wide dynamic range. Performance driven
A/D - D/A converters ensure pristine 24bit/96kHz audio to capture every
subtle detail of your performance. And the newly updated Pantheon II plug-
in provides smooth, lush Lexicon reverbs for creating ideal sonic spaces.
With built-in dbx Type IV
serve their dynamic range even when levels get too high. They'll acquire that
forgiving, oversaturated quality once only found on big analog recorders.
Conversion actually gives you more headroom, capturing subtle details in
higher level signals instead of hard clipping them.
Plus, the Lexicon IO FW810S adds onboard dbx processing (compressor,
gate, limiter, and EQ) to the front end of your digital audio workstation
along with a powerful hardware Mixer. The Mixer's true-to-life interface
design feels familiar from the second you start using it, making it easy to
adjust levels and route signals. The mixer allows you to save and load snap-
shots of mixer settings, and store your own power-on default snapshot; and
with it's 12 outputs you can create up to five unique monitor mixes or mix
7.1 surround projects. When you apply the onboard dbx processing and
Lexicon monitoring reverb to your input signals, the IO FW810S does the
processing in real-time without taxing your CPU.
With so many powerful and useful recording studio tools, it's more than just
a FireWire interface. It's the Lexicon IO FW810S.
