This pedalboard-friendly version perfectly captures the essence of the original hardware, delivering all of its captivating tones and timeless feel right at your feet. It's like having the legendary limiter, renowned for its hand-wired craftsmanship, in a compact, portable format.
The Universal Audio LA-2A is more than just a compressor - it's an instrument enhancer. Whether it's crystal-clear tones, distinct guitar notes, or accentuating the richness of bass, synths, and keys, this magical pedal infuses your music with a touch of classic character. It faithfully reproduces the large, three-dimensional sound of the original hardware, complete with its transformers, tubes and T4 optical cell distortions, right on your pedalboard.
Even without deploying its compression capabilities, the Universal Audio LA-2A Studio Compressor is a tone-elevating powerhouse. It accentuates your sound with bold tube thickening, effortlessly pushing your glowing tube amp into satisfying overdrive, bursting with rich harmonics and vibrant colour. Engineered for durability, the LA-2A Compressor combines legendary limiting effects, switchable true/buffer bypass, a Stock/Fast switch for speedy attack time, and a Mix control for effortless parallel compression, promising years of unmatched performance.
