- This would be ideal for any musician or Noisician to me but beware of the bugs that may occur maybe in early operating systems... This sounds like a million bucks the reverbs are full bodied and rich as is The Lexicon Sound
- Good Points: The reverbs are very rich I can hardly wait to own the pcm-91.
- Bad Points: The bad point are that it may contain bugs try to get a later than operating system 1. Other than that it does what it does gives the user the Lexicon sound very affordably!

- Controls are very much like a pedal. Very good preset effects; and there are lots of them. Each preset has its OWN critical parameter that can be altered. For example, the pitch transpose can be set to the interval that you need. Each preset can also be mixed with the original signal and the amount of effect can be dialed in. Many good effects and combos for noise: pitch transpose--makes even a fluty voice sound dangerous when transposed down, digital delays (ping-pong, arythmic, and so on), cavernous reverbs, and a few special effects that immediately mangle sounds into noise. Has MIDI input for those using PCs and sequencers in their setup. And SPDIF if your noise gets processed by plug-ins. As usual with effects, having two units is more fun than one.
- Good Points: Not deep at all for a rackmount unit; more like an odd-sized pedal :-) Very inexpensive for what it does. Comes with a clear, useful and short manual. Presets can be altered in useful ways--the Lexicon engineer who designed this either knew what customers really wanted or had a good imagination for simplifying an interface. Fairly rugged for a rackmount. Has a Tap Tempo In function (on some presets) for making noise go into rythmics or pulsing. Can self-oscillate.
- Bad Points: "dual channel" can be misleading: assigning different effects to each channel is preset and always feels like a compromise. Generates background noise (huh?!) when only one channel in use--that can be a distraction when a/b-ing noises or trying to quiet down your studio before the fun starts. Referring to the manual/making notes is a must for some applications, but the manual is in a handy format. Unit is no longer in production, replaced by an upgraded (?) MPX-110. Pricier units in the line (200, 500) give more bang for buck.
