While the preamp and compressor are identical to the original LA-610 that users have come to know and love, user-requested features such as true compressor bypass, larger metering, improved output signal, an auto-sensing power supply have been added bringing the end user an enhanced user experience. The LA-610 Mk II also features the highly popular \"black on black\" cosmetics of the LA-610 Signature Edition. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe LA-610 Mk II packs tremendous sonic versatility and is an ideal front-end for tracking with modern DAW’s and the serious project studio looking to get the UA sonic experience: real quality and character at an accessible price. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe LA-610 Mk II is based on the legendary console modules developed by Bill Putnam Sr. in the '60s. Noted for their musical character and warmth, countless classics from Sinatra to Van Halen have been recorded using these preamps. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter the preamp section, the LA-610 Mk II offers the T4 optical compressor. The simple operation and program-dependent nature of the LA-610 T4 compressor provides the same extremely musical control that has made the LA-2A such a well-loved classic for over 40 years. The electro-optical detector or \"T4 cell\" is the very heart and soul of the Teletronix LA-2A. The unique combination of electroluminescent panel and photo-resistors inside the T4 cell are the crucial circuit components that give both compressors their signature sound. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeatures\u003cul style=\"margin: 1em 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 40px; list-style-position: initial; list-style-image: initial;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eBased on the legendary Bill Putnam 610 tube mic pre and EQ used on countless classic recordings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eAuthentic Teletronix LA-2A-style T4 Opto-Compressor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eComplete vintage channel-strip at groundbreaking price within project studio reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eMic Pre with Gain and Level controls, variable impedance switching, and Instrument DI for recording tone \"color\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eMk II features such as true bypass, larger metering and improved signal output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eUA build quality and heritage, audiophile components, hand-assembled in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eMK II Improvements\u003cul style=\"margin: 1em 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 40px; list-style-position: initial; list-style-image: initial;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eTrue bypass of the compressor circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eLarger and better lit metering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eImproved output signal performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eAuto-sensing universal power supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eImproved stability with feedback-style shelving EQ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eImproved consistency with input gain values\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eLED jewel light never needs replacing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eGeneral\u003cul style=\"margin: 1em 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 40px; list-style-position: initial; list-style-image: initial;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eMic, Line and Hi-Z input; Line output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eDual impedance Mic and Hi-Z inputs (Mic: 2K, 500?, Hi-Z: 2.2M, 47K?)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e5 position stepped preamp Input Gain, continuous preamp output level\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e-15dB Pad switch (15dB Pad\/Off)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003ePhase reverse (0\/180º)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e48 volt phantom power switch (+48v\/Off)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e+\/- 9 dB stepped High Shelving filter (4.5, 7, 10 kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e+\/- 9 dB stepped Low Shelving filter (70, 100, 200 Hz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eT4 optical compressor with continuous peak reduction and makeup gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eCompress\/Limit\/Bypass modes of dynamic operation (3:1 \/ ?: 1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eMeter source selector switch (Preamp\/Gain Reduction\/Compressor)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eFront panel power switch (On\/Off)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eCustom Altran and Cinemag transformers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Universal Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450203140199,"sku":"94945","price":1195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/universal-audio-la-610-mk-ii-pre-compressor-012110-used_94945_1_845b451e-b386-4448-9cd3-84f0278f5522.jpg?v=1787092106","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/universal-audio-la-610-mk-ii-pre-compressor-012110-used","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
