Ease of Use
:
9
It sounds really great, so the only difficulty is finding the best choice for a given source.
Editing is easy from the front panel or an editor that comes up in your DAW.
Manual is pretty good.

I'm running it in AES-EBU. 24 bit 44.1khz or 96khz
So far, the firewire streaming is not working reliably with my DAW, so I'm using it as a normal outboard reverb.
The sounds are beautiful!
I think this may be the best Lexicon verb ever produced.
I've used them all in various studios, and I am blow away.
I plugged it in to my board and it was very soon promoted to the top of the list.
Reliability
:
7
I'm sure it is very reliable.
As a piece of outboard gear, it seems rock solid.
The firewire streaming is not working "as promised", but they are working on fixes for that.
I would give it a 10 were it not for the firewire issues.

I've owned lots of verbs over the years.
I've worked in lots of studios with high end verbs.
I think the PCM96 is a worthy successor to all of the great Lexicon verbs.
It sounds so sweet and has a huge arsenal of spaces.
It was an instant improvement to my studio.
