is based on the legendary console modules developed by Bill Putnam in the 60's.
Noted for their musical character and warmth, countless classics from Sinatra to
Van Halen have been recorded using these preamps. After the preamp section, the
LA-610 Mk II offers the T4 optical compressor. The simple operation and program
dependent nature of the LA-610 T4 compressor provides the same extremely musical
control that has made the LA-2A such a well-loved classic for over 40 years. The
electro-optical detector or "T4 cell” is the very heart and soul of the
Teletronix LA-2A. The unique combination of electroluminescent panel and
photo-resistors inside the T4 cell are the crucial circuit components that give
both compressors their signature sound.
