I can use the Early Reflector or Master Verb on channels as much as I need to add extra depth or distance, but AUX mixing w/ the SpaceF MB4-II using it's bleedover and stacked inserts gives me many option.
I use the 5.1 Room, X-Plate and X-Ambience on 3 of the 4 AUX's for main reverbs. On the 4th AUX I have a stacked X-Inverse, and X-Chorus/Delay which I can bounce back & forth to with the push of a button that can use both, or mute/bypass combinations. The depths are all controlled by a pair of knobs on my controller for live performance.
And yes my last pair of Lexicons have been sold...
I have to use a DAS Poltec or similar EQ stacked on each AUX to replace the AES/EBU hardware effects, but we have a nice MultiChannel reverb solution w/ the XITE-1.
This alone, and a quality mixer are worth buying the XITE-1.
A Kurzweil KSP8 w/ the AES/EBU & ADAT I/O plates is 2000 USD used.
These reverbs sound better and can do 5.1 and use many more the KSP8 could dream of.
One of the more sought after FOH touring engineers who demo'd this last week was impressed. Of course he is an avid Gamble console user that has an LARC w/ the 480L, but watching him laugh as he tweaked the verbs and AUX's was rewarding.
He tagged the XITE-1 as the poor mans 480L so I take that as a nod of approval.
