Lexicon IONIX FW810S 8-input / 10-output FireWire Audio Interface

The Lexicon I-ONIX FW810S 8-channel FireWire audio interface does much more than provide a great way to get audio into your computer! In addition to the high-quality preamps onboard the I-ONIX FW810S, you get the benefit of Lexicon's signature reverbs, courtesy of the updated Pantheon II plug-in. The included software suite (software mixer, dbx dynamics and EQ plug-ins, Cubase LE 4 recording software, and Toontrack EZ Drummer Lite) turns this interface into a true "out-of-the-box" production solution. Plug in the I-ONIX FW810S and let your creativity flow!

A quality front end
The high-voltage, ultra low noise dbx mic pre's on every channel provide optimal timbre and tonality on every track. Plus, the newly updated Pantheon II plug-in provides smooth, lush Lexicon reverbs for creating ideal sonic spaces.

Get digital clarity with analog feel
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.

Much more than just an interface
The Lexicon I-ONIXFW810S also features a powerful software mixer with integrated dbx dynamics (compresser, gate, limiter, EQ) to your digital audio workstation. The mixer's interface design feels familiar from the second you start it, making it easy to adjust levels, route signals through eight inputs and 10 outputs, and apply and preview reverbs and dynamics. And 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. Save and load up to five monitor mixes - one for the main control mix, and up to four for individual band members. Or assign the I-ONIX FW810S to start up with a snapshot.

Software suite included
The Ionix software suite also includes the new Pantheon II reverb plug-in from Lexicon and Toontrack's EZ Drummer Lite. And it all works together seamlessly in Cubase LE 4 (also included).
