The best opto-compressor that exists ...
Smooth, elegant, genuine, clean, and down-right seductive compression comes only from the La-2a. I love staring at it in my rack unit. Gotta pick on up if you can afford the real hardwar!
It does what it does really well and the only thing that will come close is an old Gates unit. But its not the be-all-end-all. I remember being so excited the 1st time I tried an LA2a only to find myself using a lot more 1176, LA4 and even the SSL G channel compressors on that project. The LA2A is not subtle even when you're just tickling the meter. It should be used when coloration is a priority over actual dynamics control. Have you ever tried a Sta-Level? If you like the LA2A you will love the Gates stuff!
