The organic chorusing as the treble horn and bass rotor start speeding up. The grit of the internal tube-driven amplifier, creating additional harmonics that spin around the room. Plug into Lex, close your eyes, and be transported by this classic sound, recreated with astonishing realism and depth for your pedalboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Complete Rotary Speaker System.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLex provides you with a complete, accurately reproduced rotary speaker system: the low-frequency bass rotor, the rotating treble horn, the tube-driven amplifier, finely tuned microphone placement, and all the complex sonic interactions between these elements. Powerful, intuitive controls mean you can quickly dial in just the customized sound you desire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClassic Sound, New Features.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur second generation Lex gives you the same rich rotary sounds of our original and adds significant new features, incorporating technological advancements, hardware improvements and design enhancements to give you additional flexibility, power, and ease of use on stage and in the studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMIDI\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFull MIDI implementation means you can control just about every switch, knob, and setting remotely by sending MIDI commands from your controller or DAW via Lex’s EXP\/MIDI jack or USB-C connection. Rotor speed can be synchronized via MIDI Clock Sync, and the sync setting can be saved for each preset. 300 MIDI preset locations are available for loading and saving your favorite settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHardware Improvements\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA premium analog JFET input circuit ensures superb responsiveness to your playing, and you can select mono or stereo input with the flick of a rear panel switch. All this, plus a new ARM DSP chip provides more processing power for every sonic nuance, with less energy consumption on your pedalboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUser Interface\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA more powerful and intuitive user interface gives you instant control over mic position and distance, dry level, acceleration speed, volume boost\/cut, and easy customization of rotor speed. Everything you need for the full rotary speaker experience is at your fingertips.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSound Design\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur goal with Lex was to create the most realistic sounding, flexible rotating speaker effect ever fit within a pedal. Lex features a full suite of practical controls to help you shape your rotary tone. A dedicated Horn Level control adjusts the output level of the high frequency rotating horn. A Dry mix control allows you to add more dry mix for a cleaner, clearer tone, or go full wet. A Volume knob provides +\/-6dB boost\/cut for dialing in the best level for a live or studio mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMic Controls\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe smallest changes in how a rotary speaker is mic’d can have drastic changes on its tone. Lex offers you all of the flexibility of different mic setups without ever needing to set one up. Bring Lex’s microphones closer for more prominent modulation and a wider stereo image, or back things up to include more room ambience. A dedicated mic position switch lets you choose between miking the partially covered front of the rotary speaker for a more diffused tone, or mic the open rear of the cabinet for a cleaner, more direct tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpeed Control\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeamlessly shift between a slow or fast rotating speed with the dedicated Slow\/Fast switch. Press and hold the Slow\/Fast switch to gradually brake the rotary system, and let go to ramp back up to your chosen speed. Lex’s dedicated Ramp switch lets you choose how fast things slow down and speed back up when changing speeds or when braking the rotary system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBi-Amp Mode\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBi-Amp Mode splits the output of Lex’s woofer and horn signal by sending only the horn signal to the left output and the woofer signal to the right output. Great for applying specific effects to just the lower frequencies of Lex, or individually tracking or mixing Lex’s two distinct speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreamp Drive\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of Lex’s rotary speaker is a tube preamp, ready to be pushed to add some grit to your tone. Lex’s Preamp Drive knob lets you control the drive of the rotary cabinet’s tube preamp and phase inverter stages. Set it low for a sparkly clean tone, or push things up to add tasteful texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCab Filter\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWant to run Lex directly into an audio interface, mixer, or full-range speakers instead of a guitar amp? Lex’s Cab Filter Live Edit setting tailors the speaker cab filter response for use specifically with those types of systems, giving you a fuller tone when not using a guitar amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeatures\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJFET Input. Exceptional touch sensitivity and responsiveness thanks to a high impedance ultra-low noise discrete Class A JFET preamp input.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrue\/Buffered Bypass. Choose electromechanical relay switched true bypass, or premium buffered bypass that conditions your signal to preserve its integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStereo. Lex features full stereo in\/out capabilities. A single TRS input jack keeps its compact form factor while giving you the option to use a stereo input signal. Low impedance dual TS output jacks let you use Lex as a stereo effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLine\/Instrument Level. By setting Lex to line level input mode, you get 10dB of added headroom, allowing you to use Lex with bass guitars with active pickups, synthesizers, keyboards, effects loops, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIns, Outs, and Switches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHigh impedance ultra low-noise discrete Class A JFET TRS stereo input.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLow impedance independent TS stereo outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpression pedal input allows the connection of a TRS expression pedal, MiniSwitch, MultiSwitch Plus, or TRS MIDI connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUSB jack for controlling via MIDI from a computer or for performing firmware updates.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDedicated Slow\/Fast rotary speed \u0026amp; On\/Off footswitches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAudio Quality\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePremium JFET analog front end\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUltra low noise, high performance 24-bit 96kHz A\/D and D\/A converters provide uncompromising audio quality\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e520MHz ARM Superscalar processor\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e32-bit floating point processing\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e20Hz to 20kHz frequency response\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAudio Input Impedance: 1M Ohm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAudio Output Impedance: 100 Ohm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStrong and lightweight anodized aluminum chassis\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e9V DC power supply included\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePower requirements: maximum 9 volts DC center-negative, with a minimum of 300mA of current\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 4.5” deep x 4” wide x 1.75” tall, 11.4 cm deep x 10.2 cm wide x 4.4 cm tall\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned and built in the USA\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Strymon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47533018710194,"sku":"ACSTRLEXV2","price":349.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0084\/0659\/7712\/files\/bmbqf70drvrhn4uy1fhr.jpg?v=1779969695","url":"https:\/\/www.citymusicannex.com\/products\/new-strymon-lex-v2-rotary-speaker-guitar-effects-pedal","provider":"City Music Annex","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
