After many hours of hard work, calculus, and matching we finally bring you the VLA-2A plug-in. We have put all our knowledge, engineering skill and heart into designing the most authentic native emulation of this unit to this date. We love to use the VLA-2A on drums, but it also performs outstandingly well on bass or vocals and carefully adjusting the compression really helps to make your signals shine and just sit in the mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAuthentic Circuit Emulation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur real-time component-based circuit simulation approach allows for authentically capturing the sound and feel of the analog unit as close as possible.

It's a totally different device in terms of construction where all the compression magic happens inside an optically coupled element formed by a fluorescent panel and some photocells: the famed T4A element. There is no electronic circuitry involved with the compression itself. It's just a tube amp with photo-resistors, lighted by a fluorescent panel driven by the output signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the time of this invention, there were not many ways of making an audio compressor: only variable-mu and optical.
