In 2001, Universal Audio set the standard in analog emulation with the original UAD LA-2A plug-in. Today, UA's engineers have redesigned the LA-2A plug-in with more obsessive detail. The LA-2A classic leveler plug-in collection features immaculate models of three highly sought-after LA-2A units, giving you the most authentic emulations ever of this iconic compressor. </p><p></p><h2> Three Historical Units </h2><p> Teletronix founder Jim Lawrence first used photocells for controlling audio gain in the early 1960s. His ingenious optical compression design was a technological breakthrough, far surpassing the stability and transparency of earlier circuits. Universal Audio founder M.T. "Bill" Putnam later purchased this patented technology, continuing to manufacture the LA-2A for years to come. The Teletronix LA-2A Leveler Collection puts three of the most coveted incarnations of the iconic Teletronix processor at your fingertips. Like the hardware, the LA-2A Silver, LA-2A Gray and LA-2 models offer distinct variations in time constants, compression knee, headroom, distortion, program and frequency dependence and more. </p><p></p><h2> LA-2A Silver and Gray </h2><p> With a brushed aluminum panel and original T4B gain reduction module, this cherished late-1960s "Silver" version of the LA-2A, manufactured by Bill Putnam, is perhaps the most flexible of the three plug-ins in the collection. Its fast time constant makes it suitable for the widest variety of program material, including transient-rich sources like drums and percussion. Jim Lawrence’s original mid-1960s Gray version the LA-2A maintains a more average time constant, providing a range of "medium-speed" compression. </p><p></p><h2> The Original LA-2 </h2><p> The exceptionally rare, early 1960s LA-2 unit preceded the LA-2A by several years. It provides the slowest response and a unique "mellowed" sound due to 50 years of luminescent panel aging inside the T4 module. Use the LA-2 with legato tempos and vocal sources for a transparency and sublime mood unlike any other compressor. </p>", "value":"59.00", "priceMin":"59.00", "priceMax":"59.00", "priceSavingsMaxPrice":"240.00", "priceSavingsMaxPercent":"80", "inventory":"0", "brand":"Universal Audio", "reviewStarImageUrl": "https://static.musiciansfriend.com/img/brand/mf/cmn/Sprit-Sm-Stars.png", "reviewStarRating":"0.0", "reviewStarRatingInteger":"0", "reviewHowManyReviews":"0", "usedOrNew":"new", "discontinued":"0", "onOrder":"0", "clearance":"1", "canBeSold":"1", "accessoryCategories":"site1JPD,site1YBK,site1YC", "stickerText": ""}
