Inspired by a legendary tube-based unit, this dynamic processor plugin is a must-have for any serious music producer.

Just dial in the peak reduction and adjust the gain to let your vocals cut through the mix with smooth, consistent levels.

Unlike its analog counterparts, you can seamlessly integrate the White 2A across the stereo bus of your DAW without the need for multiple units. Whether you're working with vocals or taming the wide dynamics of a bassline, this plugin’s subtle harmonic saturation provides a pleasing warmth that’s hard to beat.
