Its early incarnation bore the Teletronix logo, presumably to show its connection with the LA-2A. Later iterations used the Universal audio name on the faceplate; in both cases the Urei logo was prominent. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe LA-3 has discrete circuitry and balanced ins and outs, along with adjustable input gain and threshold. it employs the same T4 opto cell for compression as found in the LA-2A.\u003cbr\u003eExcellent for vocals, guitars, and mix buss. Great mid-range presence that engineers love. Can be very invisible, or more pronounced, due to continuously variable rotary controls. 'Peak Reduction' increases the sidechain gain - lowering the threshold and increasing compression - while 'Gain' is used to adjust the makeup gain.","brand":"Urei","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450498642023,"sku":"129551","price":6495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/urei-la-3a-leveling-amplifier-pair-3885-3891-vintage_129551_1_b7d54e98-4e3d-478e-a349-d574a802628d.jpg?v=1787093308","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/urei-la-3a-leveling-amplifier-pair-3885-3891-vintage","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
