A really really really small and tiny percentage of the 7,800,000,000 do, it's still a big number for you or anyone else to say there's a "general people opinion or experience", that was the point.
I was clear in saying I totally respect living sounds opinion, and I totally respect yours.
Just because you have that opinion it doesn't mean it's the "General opinion" of others, and it's not
I couldn't care less about hardware or plugins, I personally use both, and as more time goes the less I miss any hardware unit.
And I actually think in a lot of regards Protools mixing and plugins sound much better.
Specially in the Reverb domain I don't use or care any longer for my old rack gear or the gear I had in the big studio I worked in, neither did the quality of my work got worse, on the contrary I think it just got better
This is my personal opinion as an Engineer, the fact that is different than yours means no disrespect, we can disagree,
I respect you as I told before, hope you are able to respect others people experiences and opinions also.
I don't have a Lexicon 480, I used one for many years, but If I had one I would sell it straight away and start to use the Relab 480
