    Hello,

    I computer music product, I did That a home studio.

    Voila, j'site normment between the "2 Fat" and the ivory V2-5051.
    Can you give me your opinion on these 2 compressors / Pramp.

    I need a good compression for Bass, Drums, guitard elec and ventuelement for vocals.

    The presets of "two fat" are they really good?
    What are the main differences?
    Are what "2 Fat" is the same as the FAT1 or FAT2?

    Thank you very much for your answers.

    Complete period. Lack of serial digital.

    UTILIZATION

    Quite simple. It must still control the base.

    SOUND QUALITY

    I changed the bulbs for ENGL. I used the base coupled to an AT4050 for vocals. But I find it more efficient on low.
    The soft knee compressor is if the drive is not pushed. The equa is not bad, without more, it does its job but is rough in addition subtraction.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Slice that does its job, it is a good brand that respects the manufacturing quality of its products.
    It will be very useful and efficient on low, a little less on the voice, and the cart for acoustic guitars.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 1 year now mainly for my taking his acoustic guitar and the amp did a good job, but he must be aware that pre-amp has a signature sound has a little bite with a british interesting.

    For my part, I am delighted with this amp and I must say, it is still difficult to make the wrong
    with her. mics that I Deputy static or dynamic, it fits well. effectively to
    those who research sound very neutral, so there go your way, because it provides a color we like or not like it.

    OVERALL OPINION

    For about six months. The sound is colorful it is, but what I like most is that it is possible
    through a compromise, it changed the lights to approach a particular preamp
    legend, or rather to compose a new sound through various lamps.

That said, there's the Phantom power supply and if you do not look clean all costs, and you like "some personnalitquot;, may be a choice. But someone will advise other!

    UTILIZATION

    Very simple, very simple.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Personally, I find it brings a color limit (I always talk about the old version). But I like that touch of personality to what I do, and I especially like the fact that it is for INTERESTED string instruments as a microphone jack (Deutsche guitar, bongos, etc. .).

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 3 years, I especially like the sound it gives my old guitar and versatile (the EQ in vain stepfather me a little fuzzy, I came back in this thing!). With the exprience, I would do this choice that price. But above, I would do a little comparison.

    UTILIZATION

    It is as complex as it is complete. It takes a few months connatre (this may be why has not Plastok AIM), both rglages can change the sound. Personally, I find the EQ a bit vague and excessive in certain ranges (yes, Plastok: treble, etc.). The big problem is the gate and have to start one day a whole spiel of 6 minutes to get it to rgl Manir too optimistic. Use it only as a cut-down breath (the rest is dcoupe on the computer). Like I said, it is a complex machine dj. Equalize before or APRS compression is as subtle diffrence, but there a. Difference And we also still have the choice to compress or not. Then the slecteurs frequency drives are good tags and plutt After a few months, they are handled quickly trs. In short, he must learn a prampli mater. Finally, the manual, I do not know if it is clear or not. I have not read. I put 7 because it is complex, not least because it is full.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Me, transparency, has not only m'intresse. So here, I color, and it is well trs. I have an old Framus electric guitar, and with the 5051 is a really good couple. The one senses the lamp (because these guitars Designed to taient). On a synth I do not see the intrt. When the voice is well RULES (the numrotation brief note does not help rglages), is frankly not bad at all. There's color, the heat if you want (question of legalization of all, I think), and the atmosphere is l. The 5051 is one of the color of my lments zik. But Obviously, this is a bias.

    If I had a studio pro, I probably would have a prampli of this kind, among others, because he has the personality. So, I give 9 because without him I would be lost! (I would have given 4 for a transparent product).

    OVERALL OPINION

    I uses it for 3 years. I love the guitar, I find it more difficult rgler on the voice, with all of the same AKG 3000B dj prcis enough. But I'm going to do. As I said, the report is very well qualitprix and color me very flat. With esprience, I take two for the linker in Stereo and all go by (except synths) ...

    MODEL lamp, few available rgalges

    UTILIZATION

    Frankly, trs Prmpli soft, no potato ...
    Not present compressor, the ratio of rglage is virtually imperceptible
    Equalizer trs sweet.
    In short, it is not nervous, lgre color ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    Sound quality but not too much personality for the price

    OVERALL OPINION

    Do not buy this product!
    Prampli too sweet, it's for the kids.
    To put pramps my sound card is also good.

    Is complete.
    It is beautiful and trs why we can congratulate TLA.

    UTILIZATION

    Hyper intuitive! in 2 seconds you take it in hand and you hear the diffrence that you are making a ds knob. 2 routing capabilities: the EQ before the compressor or APRS.

    Lamps can really customize the sound, the compressor is working, the EQ is impressive as is the gate (careful though the pumping effect).

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had 3 months and for life. I strongly advise anyone who wants to invest for the long term in a Preamp / Comp / EQ / Gate.
    I bought new London home TURNKEY for 360 pounds (3600 dollars) while in France it is found twice. DSOL our gossips but this award, worth to dplacer.
    In conclusion, I would say that the big burger (but only my opinion )!!!!!!!

    Modified: September 15, 2004:
    The outlet does not inspire confidence ... a move in any direction. I have installed the TLA in a rack and it does not move as it will not change the electrical outlet. The notice goes global, so for me 10-8 because it's still disappointing given the quality of gnerale 5051

    Lots of lamps (6 floors with 3 tube twin-triode) including the compressor.
    English equation.
    solid, nice, clean.
    I love everything on it except the gate (that is a behringer better deal!).

    UTILIZATION

    Everything is simple and it is difficult to make bad sound on it.
    one branch and it works.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Transparent in that it does not promote things like a JOEMEEK and seems to go unnoticed. but soft, round, dynamic but not super serious, reliable, pleasant and "class" in its tone color.
    very nice on a bass or a dynamic mic.

    no interest in pushing the gain on the lights, saturation (difficult) is not very "pretty".
    fine for voice (where tj is not seeking a dynamic mind-blowing ... but rather to control it and a beautiful sound), it is not worth an avalon and is less bright than Symetrix.
    the gate is unusable, except to put it in "Auto Sleep".

    OVERALL OPINION

    Used for 3 years at least, but not every day.
    I like it. it's a beautiful immediately and without history.
    équalo its compression and can be used in good taste (and it works ... of course !!!).
    if it was a hi-fi system, it is rather that of the quad yamaha.
    English is the sound ... we like it or not ...
    I trust him tj.
    and so many lights at this price ... good value.

    Then we enter the subjective. It is excellent, but then very good on the kick
    (Beta52A and SM91). It is also low for the royal line, with the EQ is Byzantium (Friends of bass you can throw your POD). For voice, but there are gonna surment best in the category above.
    I prcise I use a T-BoneSCT2000 or Neumann TLM103, ca does it well, the beast is forgotten and this is what I demand a slice of cnsole.On often criticized ca compression a little soft but let's say straight out, and c unit is not a compressor. It makes your life easier has the record, a point that is all.
    So as I am fortunate to have a friend who one another, m 'comes to borrow his to make mastering (with link function). The result again is excellent, your most powerful mix parrait , warmer, clearer! Now if you want the sound from benassi bro, or massive attack: it is clear that is not the compressor for you.
    If you have a small garage band, recording a concert on the console DAT .... Brrr that is nice but that is cold. Zou TLAudio once and we thought on vinyl ....

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's been a year since I 'Utis enough regulirement
    The preamp is good
    The compress a little soft
    The EQ is fantastic
    The gate is zero
    The saw is too nice to

    I tried the Berhinger dja, prosonus blue tube, Art TubeMP .... AC did not

    Quality / price: good but not great so I put 8

    If c 'is silent again? I 'buy two instead of one or even 5052!

    microphones that I used above? Beta 58, Beta 87, SM58, apex 415, for all these microphones well it restores their original stamp Global Warming signal significantly, but not make it home to hell!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had four months, I use it mainly for my lives, I was looking for a real pramp, well above the pramp Intgr the tables, which adds clarity, power and heat, I served ! the compresso or qualo are much better than we are used to see insert, so it's perfect and live my way out of the mix but not too much, I wanted to stack!
    I had OCCAZ Allemangne ​​for 570 on ebay in the first silent owner very very careful and had not used so we can say that I got it almost new price!
    Now I'll find my way around other brand pramp, not that I dcut TLA, on the contrary, but I want me a nice park forg channel strip and have diffrent a nice range of color ^ ^

    I used it for 2 months to record an album. Compared my Brhinger ULTRAGAIN possde that a light, the sound is not beucoup best. Three times as many lamps but not three times hotter. It is much easier rgler has obviously. But I think for the small budget, any thing with a 12AX7 you spell the same sound, a microphone chouilla prs. Well it's nice when the compressor has even saves time mixing. But the price is really too high and the quality is not the appointment. SAVE as much and buy a LA610 (or 6176!) And then keep his first pramp 12AX7. You will not change due.

    I also changed the three lamps Sovtek basis for three to six dollars "in January Philips 12AX7 WA United States" there is a difference between the United States Sovtek and Philips, the sound is less Soft, it takes effect and attack! the preamp, they further enhance the overload threshold input circuit producing as much harmonic color, it's actually nicer and dynamic.

    OVERALL OPINION

    For the price is great! even with 3 x lamps philips United States in January to 35 dollars apiece, you win a lil something and it's not a very expensive machine!
    Type and use! warmer, the staff Focusrite cheap
    "Excellent on dynamic microphones, it is less effective on static!"
    I think a SM58 is really a good alternative, now an U87 is not good at all!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have used the version in the studio stereo chanels (Ivory Series 1) for 1 year
    and I just bought the 5051.
    When you buy a tl is the compressor, and seriously can not be of, unless it is not known to use it and that starts to swing anything in it.
    I tip for bass, and the battery (though tedious as mono (so you have to take some the head, a reconnect and re-registration by chanel chanel every time.
    Dja Having used many other systems of compression (for the most part digital, the TL really has nothing to do, it brings warmth and potato research (also works very well with an MPC and very effective use pure computer music). HOWEVER: s'apperoit it very quickly it takes two, because that does not pass through rings at once hollow and weak compared to what comes out.
    in the clear if you made a low pass through it immediately will prevail over all other 'normal for a compressor but, it has nothing to do with a digital compass in a 2franc 6. the result is Excellent but we get used to dealing with chanel chanel :-(!
    The report price is Excellent quality but that was just for 130 euro more you can have a stereo version (5021) (see DIGITAL VILLAGE I Discoveries this site after buying Thomann and I must say it's a bit nerva! TLA Ivory 2 5021 to less than 600 E-books!
    with the experience I took the stereo (which is also a 2 chanels spars (5021), less a broken foot and then use guain of time, you lose against the EQ and when we taste to that of the 5051's is hard to do without. EQ is all just the best I've had the opportunity to use simply because the frequencies are well chosen and it brings the desired result very quickly without stifling and without breath. (this is the advantage of this Trache all in one) some people criticized the 5052, there are four possible hypotheses: either the driver of a UPS flingus lamps by manipulating the box ( very possible, as fragile). is the compressor begins to age and the lamps begin weakening. or the people they had the same brain and ears grills and / or does not know how to use it . the 5052 and 5051 twice. this compressor is for use "melo" and not a death of Bourin (prod ideal for POP, HIP HOP, TRIP HOP, surely at least for hard rock, mtal and / or hardtech big sound, Bourin electro, drum & Bass pure.
    Some people criticized the sovtech lamps supplied with the compressor, I will simply say that dpend on what you want to do with. incoming sound while still having the same Determines relative to the desired result. if they do the job (that means you're more pop, "duffy" or hip hop style "Nas, DJ Premier," is what you need.
    I read that if you want the bass massive attack you can forget two years and having lived in Bristol (world capital of trip hop) I would say that it is false (that virtually all the studios bristolien TL Audio quips are maded in england). Massive Attack uses electro bass notes that have undergone different treatments (the compressor is not that matters) the old Rolland is also something and want the Fx.Je to believe that there are better, but even when it is sure it's 500 E and it was worth the money! I think some people have been delivered by clumsy! and it is possible that the lamps will be ammoches along the way (this is the stuff fragile, if we play soccer with the box is sure it's dead), which explains the " Ignorance "some criticism after having put electroharmonix. the sovtech gives a good potato, but then again what is dpend research. I'm going for my chopper electroharmonix and I'll keep you posted!
    Note: Avoid touching the lamp with doight because fingerprints left on the glass part used as fuel and therefore the lamps start to exterminate a warm barbecue sauce that you had on doights!

    I'll let you read the previous review

    UTILIZATION

    Yes it's simple.
    We get a good sound easily bcp faster than on other devices more expensive and more accurate!

    SOUND QUALITY

    This amp is not transparent but very colorful so you'd better test it before. I really like it went very hot, I often hear that it sounds very British. I often gum in the lower midrange between 250 and 500 Hz
    My sound engineer boosts the lot is understood that sometimes a little soft. But what fun for the rest of the voice in concert.
    It is coupled with a Beta 87.

    I recorded my album with at least voice coupled with a Neumann.

    I especially compared with slices console: Midas ...
    Ascending: The warmth of sound, the grain
    The -: It can take well cut in the midrange bass.
    Excellent value for money. The beast is not too fragile for a tube preamp. Even if I had to have it reviewed there was not very long because of capricious knobs (but it has turned bcp) and it works again nickel.

    UTILIZATION

    A minimum so that we know how to use a preamp, a compressor, and an eq I think the usage is rather simple. For a clean sound: minimum entry level and high output for a dirty sound of course is the reverse. It actually has a single lamp (triode), so if you enter too much in the preamp, a small gain of makeup or eq will quickly saturate the signal.

    SOUND QUALITY

    I find good quality even though I could not make true comparisons with another preamp in this category. I did some comparative tests on a voice rapped with a small table for home studio Tapco 6306 (C414 XLII as micro). It is on that has nothing to do, the sound is much more "accurate", this, more …

I did some comparative tests on a voice rapped with a small table for home studio Tapco 6306 (C414 XLII as micro). It is on that has nothing to do, the sound is much more "accurate", this, more respectful of the source. Be careful though if you want a clean sound that does not hit too hard when the preamp input, the distortion appears very quickly, and what can be very smooth on a bass or a guitar is not necessarily a voice.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I used it in the studio along with a ISA220, I think I still prefer the ISA is still more complete, but for that price I think the 5051 is one of the best machines. I use it to record vocals, bass instrument input (DI not need to practice!), And most of my drums vsti or to compress and equalize (There's also an input line). My opinion of course can not be objective because I have not yet acquired much experience in this type of equipment.

    For those who do not think I could do without real light, I advise them preamp rather a more transparent, more versatile. The sensation of light will be more subtle.

    I did a riff on a Shoutout resumed in acoustic if you want to make you a notice with your ears, sources here (he also stallion in the preamps zoom R16, for fun):

    http://john.fender.free.fr/Export/AF/TLA5051VSOneQ/

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had it about two months. I also have a JOEMEEK Q1. Well, I prefer the sound of JOEMEEK, there's no picture. The TLA may well have clearly more headroom, without saturation, he eats too much sound from what I get with the JOEMEEK which highlights the fine bass and treble clear and precise with respect to a sound becomes very medium, may be softer, softer to me.

    Besides, I sell mine.

    UTILIZATION

    Configuration ideal for learning
    Getting a good sound requires an adjustment to the sources:
    - The voice, the record is generally very good with a microphone static if the following conversion is good, especially when the compression comes from the equation '
    - For guitar, device unsuited alone, requires a lot of boost and clarity is lost in the cream caused, however this can give with the pedals (the first try in first-position [before the band] and , but useful little practiced by time in post, ie before entering DAW) on the other hand, very good to take the mids of the guitar with a microphone
    - For percussive elements: it depends, but can be very useful in a battery made for Tom's or to soften the cymbals)
    - For BAR: provides added warmth and even swing with the comp 'in the extreme, it is still necessary that the initial sounds are minimally processed (reverb tends to drool)
    unless you are good converters: not recommended for treatment of external effects during mixing "in the box''
    - For synths: yes on tablecloths or to reduce the sound shrill stridency

    SOUND QUALITY

    - reproduction that can be flattering on the excellent singing proximity effect (sensuality, intimacy), eg. with a Neumann TLM; mezzo made it a standard dynamic SM58
    - The guitars are thereby muted, which may be interesting or to correct with EQ
    - Preamp rather go without colored in shades of garish range corresponding Joemeek: its brittish, creamy

    OVERALL OPINION

    Well to start, have used it for 2 years
    The +: a benefit very correct on vocals and wind instruments, to work, but also to rework: Second compresssion + Eq remedy: that between the logic of a chain of sound and color can make a very sweet welcome Park preamp '
    the -: good acoustics needed to go to a high level
    very good value for money
    With the experience: thank you Dad!
    Very correct
