CA-2A is a plugin emulation of the legendary Teletronix LA-2A hardware compressor. It puts the silky, smooth sound of this highly desirable unit right into any VST compatible DAW. CA-2A wears same controls as the LA-2A hardware, such as Gain (gain make-up), Peak Reduction (threshold), and a Ratio switch between compression and limiting. The VU Meter Mode sets the VU meter to display either gain reduction, db-Full Scale output, or either of the analog simulated metering modes.
