![]() The Native instruments VC2A is probably my favourite version in a plugin. I used a hardware one constantly in 1990's when I was a studio recording engineer. The LA-3A model offers similar functionality but without the tube circuitry, giving it a cleaner sound. It is available in faithful plugin form as the CLA-2A. I use this style of compressor as a leveller. The LA-2A hardware unit is ubiquitous in commercial studios and has been heard on countless recordings.

Great for bass, guitars, keys, and vocals (in conjunction with another compressor like an 1176 if you need to deal with a vocalist's transients).

It leaves transients alone and averages out the signal over time. ![]() ![]() Gain would make the panel inside brighter optically and then you adjust the peak to control the amount of compression (how much of the light the photo cell responds to). ![]() You control it by using the input gain and peak together. It worked using a luminescent panel as an input and photocells 'seeing' and adapting the compression ration and release, if the photo cell sees light it continues to work. If it was modelled properly then the attack/release and the ratio are dependent on the source signal but generally the original Teletronix was a 10ms attack time, a 4:1 ratio and the release was around 60ms on quick signals with a further hold from 1s - 15s depending on the signal. ![]()
