  proaudioplugins's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Absolutely Fabulous"

  Characteristics

  This is a reprint of the famous UREI LA2-A, so tube compressor.

  Utilization

  The config is super simple:
  
  - A gain potentiemètre
  
  - A reduction peak potentiommetre
  
  
  
  A switch for on / off switch and the meter (position output gain or gain reduction).
  
  
  
  At the rear a knob to calibrate the link
  
  
  
  You can not go wrong. It's simple and effective.

  Sound Quality

  Then there is the top. Absolutely incredible. Even when the compression is a bottom, it's still music. Otherwise, with a softer compression, the sound of lamps brings this round without losing definition.
  
  
  
  It works incredibly well on vocals, bass, acoustic guitar, electric accordion, cymbals, hi-hat.
  
  
  
  
  
  Short to be used in all recording sessions both at the time of registration that insert at the mix (DAW output type Pro Tools, Cubase, Logic).

  Overall Opinion

  For 1 week.
  
  I tried mainly to mix the old mixes I made. This unit is excellent. Choice again without hesitation.

  Julien Manaud's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  See above

  Utilization

  Very simply, 4 buttons.

  Sound Quality

  Compressor remarkable.
  
  
  
  the sound is vintage, very faithful to the technology of yesteryear.

  Overall Opinion

  I had the chance to try this compressor studio in New York and Anthony Demaria meet in person.
  
  
  
  this guy is a genius, he has a full line of high-quality products. the ADL-1000 is a good example.
  
  
  
  the must is the reproduction of the Fairchild 670 (used at Abbey Road studios for the Beatles and all the others ...)
  
  
  
  The Fairchild 670 is now located, and worth more than $ 50 000.
  
  
  
  Anthony Demaria copying is still worth 20 000 euros ... but was found by technicians at Abbey Road as a perfect copy.
  
  
  
  of high-end products to be discovered.

  matt07's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  Opto compressor / limiter mono 2U rack manufactured 100% by hand (ie a collection outdoor finish imperfect but solid and irreproachable quality overall).
  
  2 rglages: "Peak reduction" and "gain". Given the nitre there is the output volume is the compression in dB.
  
  Rponse in frquence: 15 30000 Hz, 40 db gain possible, same for the rduction. Fixed attack and release (automatically adapt).
  
  Lamp Technology (4 lamps: two 12AX7 tubes, a lamp and a lamp 12BH7A 6AQ5A.
  
  The input and output are XLR.

  Utilization

  Simple operation, the manual is available on the manufacturer's website (in English).
  
  Formidable efficiency. I finally heard what a true compression (nothing to do with the Plug'ins and compressors that I used before).

  Sound Quality

  A sound die for! Ideal for bass, sax and vocals (basically, on everything I recorded.

  Overall Opinion

  A "box of race," by driving a Ferrari is against forcment onreux more than drive a Twingo.
