It is also great on vocals, after the event, or for tracking. Drive it a bit, and it really is an awesome, gorgeous sound, with a sweet, slightly grainy warmth to it.įor more modern sounds, I slightly prefer the API, which is clean, chunky, dimensional, and which has a beautiful natural compression to it when pushed.īut this 610A now lives on my unison input for all things bass. I can skip amp models these days, good as they are, because a nicely driven pre into LA-2 gets me everything I need.įor the vintage guitars, I found UA 610A the standout. I just want to enhance the natural character of the bass, be it a vintage P, a jazz, or something modern with Bartolinis. In this case, I was looking for something to complement a growing bass guitar collection something that would let me record DI. I already own several of the Neve models, which have become indispensable to my studio. I recently spent a full day reviewing pretty much all of UAD's pre collection in demo mode what a fascinating exercise that was. I would recommend it to anyone who wants not only an emulation of LA2A but a great-sounding compressor. There's something special that other LA2A emulations are missing. The description of the characteristics of the three plug-ins in the Manual is very useful and makes it easier to choose the right model for the instrument. I've never worked with the original hardware unit but there's something special about this plugin that I've always missed when working ITB. Something I have not experienced with any other emulation of this equipment. Suddenly the piano sounded "like a record" and not like a sample library anymore. I immediately liked LA2A when I tried it on synthesizers, but the real magic was when I put it on a piano (sample library). After many years of listening to very positive opinions, I could finally see if the LA2A is really that good and if it can beat the current competition. I got the LA-2A quite recently in the native version.
