This time Universal Audio brings three distinct variations of the LA-2A, all of them modelled after real historical units and one of them even emulates one of the very first models with the original T4 opto-compression cell. With more accurate modelling methods it comes with a sound that’s closer than ever to the hardware it emulates. Universal Audio Teletronix LA-2A Classic Leveler CollectionĪ true studio classic that is easily spotted on many equipment racks since its introduction in the early 1960s, the LA-2A arrives at its second iteration for the UAD-2 platform with a significant “MK2” revision. A very deserving first spot and one can only imagine what could happen if Universal Audio decides to do a “MK2” of this plug-in.Ĭlick for New and Used prices, user Reviews, more Info & Discussions. Although it's acceptable to say that it’s hard to believe that one can fully recreate the sound of those big-heavy metal plates with mere bits of code, it’s also very safe to say that this plugin captured the greatest chunk of reverb magic with amazing authenticity and to the extent that our users consider it an irreplaceable tool. This plugin brings the three models of the EMT-140 that are installed at the Plant Studios in Sausalito/California, and besides presenting the faithful emulation that made UAD famous it also adds some benefits only found in the plug-in world such as dry/wet mixing, modulation and stereo width/balance controls - not to mention the awesome possibility of instantly swapping from one plate model to the other with a couple of clicks. The EMT-140 Plate Reverberator is one of the most distinguished effects of all time and its virtual recreation follows the same glorious path as one of the most loved plugins amongst our users and rightfully claiming the first spot on our list.
