Overview
The Warm Audio WA-2A is a mono optical compressor / limiter with tube electronics, inspired by the classic Teletronix LA-2A first introduced in the 1960s. The control layout, like the original, is as simple as can be -- just threshold ("Peak Reduction") and gain makeup ("Output Gain") with switchable ratio for compression and limiting.

More Information
The rear panel also features variable stereo linking for two units, as well as a "Pre-emphasis" control which gives you a sweepable high-pass filter in the sidechain to let low frequencies go through uncompressed. All-discrete circuitry with custom Cinemeg input and output transformers, primo vacuum tubes and a Kenetek opto cell provides an incredible vintage tone, giving a great big hug to any signal that passes through. Stunning on bass, acoustic guitars and vocals, the WA-2A is also super affordable, putting classic sound into any studio without having to sell any vital organs.
