What's your take on the DP/4? Mine is highly underused (it lives its 
solitary life in the guitar FX rack at the moment...), and I can't quite 
decide whether I should make an effort to dig deep or ditch it instead...

Interesting observation. I does sound relatively dry, yet I find that it 
opens up spaces beatifully without cluttering the mix. Given that I like 
to throw tons of reverb at my electronic mixes, that suits me.
It also works particularly well on classical recordings where you'd want 
a natural sound instead of an "effect". I compared against some 
convolution presets from Samplitude 8 and the M3000 won every time hands 
down.

I can't comment regarding either the Lexi nor the Eventide.
