Just buy it!
Who cares if the plugins are not 100% identical, what matters is they enhance the sound. I have used Waves and other plugins but UA offer a fatness which the others don't. To me it's a mute point if analogue sounds better than digital plugins because it will go digital, its cheaper and if enough people buy into it then companies will have no choice but to keep improving the digital world until it becomes better than analogue. This or any other UA plugin is the best you are going to get so demo it have fun and try to not think of comparing it to the hardware unit as I bet if you stuck them side by side not knowing which was which you would choose the plugin and the hardware on certain choices. Great plugin, great reverb and great company!

This reverb sits nice in the mix
I have some nice Lexicon style plugins ,,, But when I use this one Its more like the real deal ,,, Love the input /Output controls too . I can bring more of it in the mix without stepping all over everything. Nice Presets!

2nd review after more than a year of use.
When I compare the sound of audio today to 15 years ago, it seems a lot dryer, reverb tails are much shorter but the audio itself seems much more robust, multilayered and hard hitting. Back when the hardware Lexicon 224 was new, those long reverb tails were part of the culture of music. Snare drums, lead vocals etc. The way we are mixing is always changing. I don't necessarily use reverb to create long tails. I use reverb by aux bussing certain elements of the mix through the Lexicon and placing them behind the audio by using the pre-delay and depth controls. The Lexicon 224 is still my choice reverb for this task due to the fact the unit is so easily eq'd and so rich sounding. Really adds a nice thick and supportive layer.

Lexicojn 224 digital reverb review:
Recently I purchased a quad core UAD custom bundle and chose the lexicon as one of my plug ins. This reverb is amazing. Preset 1 sounds warm smooth and soft. Unlike some other reverbs I've used before I find the lexicon doesnt really have any bad or harsh presets or sounds. Anything I send to the Lexicon just sounds super smooth. Favorite applications are vocals and acoustic guitars.

sweet, so sweet reverb
It's special, the design is special but beautiful, no waveform or others "usable" graphics, just sliders and digit numbers.
But what a sound, that's unique, wonderful, specially with voices but not only by far!
The best UAD plugin for me because its quality and exclusiveness.

Best Yet!
I have so far been unable to find a digital reverb that didn't sound digital. Then I demoed the 422.
I have been fortunate enough to have used the 224 and 422 in the past. This is it. Again UAD gives us as close to the real deal as is possible. After a couple minor tweaks to fit the flavoe of each song, It just sits in the mix. It will be on every mix for a long time. Many thanks UAD!!

Like the real thing
Well there are tons of reverb-plugins out there, but this one blows me away and stop me think about hardware units. It sounds and behaves just the same. This is the only reverb you'll ever need.

Beautiful！！！
The reverberation time of the day I used to contrast, compare the reverb I've used, including avid of reverb one, I can only say, far beyond my expectations, and I love him very much, I will forever use, beautiful! !

This Is Unbelieveable!
Bought this plug-in recently and was at the end stages of writing a production music album. I've been writing production music for the last 20 years and recorded in some amazing studios. All of which had the 224 in hardware form. Being a committed UAD user, I expected great things from this plug-in but this really is sublime. The sound is totally there and of course, at a fraction of the price of the original unit. And of course, you can run multiple instances of it. Which I did, with a sense of deep joy. Needless to say, I swopped out the convolution reverb I had been using with this baby and boy, did it make a difference.
Big thanks UAD, keep up the excellent work!

Behold The God of Reverbs!!!
The 224 has been the staple of my mixxes since the days I use to cut tape. I love it sounds the same and feels just as good!

Lexicon 224 same as 20 years ago the real thing
I have the real Lexicon 224 Digital Reverb 20 years ago inside my recording studio ( Sound Station, in Hong Kong ), need to cost me about US$10000 at that time, now I can have the real sounds and effects and the setting is almost as the real Lexicon 224 as before but with only a fraction of the cost which I have paid before and of course the plug in bring back so many memories about the Lexicon 224 I used to have.

fantastic
I love this reverb it takes me back to the good old days.
Uaudio are simply the best

Great!
Does it sound exactly like the real thing? No. Does is have the same impact on your music? Yup. It just works. I love reverb, but hate reverb plugs. I don't hate this one. I also spent a few hours with the plate settings trying to mimic the emt 140. I can get pretty darn close. Good job UA.

Not my go-to reverb, but indispensable
Anyone growing up listening to Eno, Lanois, U2 et al will probably recognize the wonderful sounds coming out of this plugin. I still can't say that I use this for vocals and particularly drums, because it sounds a bit 'dated' to my ears. But for atmospheric guitar work it's unlike any other reverb I've ever used. So lush yet sits so right in the mix.

This is pretty close to the real thing. Very easy to manipulate and sounds great! Definitely my first option when wanting to add an extra dimension to recordings.
