The 2A version is tube-based and delivers a warmer, harmonically rich tone. The 3A version is solid-state based and has a faster attack, cleaner tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eBeyond the Original Hardware\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eComp LA extends the features of the original hardware: it combines the flexibility of the digital world to the sound character of the analog processing. Select the 2A (Tube) mode with a harmonically richer tone, and the 3A (Solid State) mode with a faster attack time and a more transparent tone. You can control the amount of generated harmonics. Increase or reduce their content compared to the original behavior and monitor its amount through the meter.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eMid-Side and Parallel\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eYou can separately compress the Mono (Mid) and Stereo (side) elements of the track as well as enable the Parallel Compression without using an external bus or MS matrix.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2A model has the electro-luminescent light powered by a tube, while the 3A uses transistors. Tubes can provide less current than transistors, so their response to attack transients is softer and has more harmonics due to the slight distortion introduced.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eOpto Attenuator and Dual Stage Release\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the original unit, there is a photo-cell coupled with an opto-attenuator, which are faithfully reproduced into the Comp LA plug-in.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe photo-cell provides a very natural dual-stage release which results in a very characteristic compression response, more transparent than that of other compressors:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e70 ms for first half of the release\r\n500 ms to 5000 ms for second half of the release (depends on first stage reduction)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Overloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450484486247,"sku":"125966","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/overloud-gem-comp-la_125966_1_eaeff2a8-eae7-4d5d-902a-258bbd16c1b7.jpg?v=1787093251","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/overloud-gem-comp-la-electronic-delivery","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
