Legendary LA-2A and 610 Mic Pre in One! The LA-610 brings UA's legendary vintage "all tube" luxury sound into a modern channel strip format by combining the 610 mic pre/EQ/DI section and a T4 opto-compressor into a single 2U design with a ground-breaking price! Universal Audio LA-610 Channel Strip at a Glance: Preamp, DI , and EQ from the award-winning 6176 Compression with the same musical control of the LA-2A Great front end for digital recording Designed in collaboration with original UREI engineer Preamp, DI , and EQ from the award-winning 6176 The 610 tube preamp, DI and EQ is from UA's TEC award winning 6176 and is based on the legendary console modules developed by Bill Putnam in the 60's. Countless classics have been recorded using these preamps, noted for their musical character and warmth. Compression with the same musical control of the LA-2A After the preamp section, the LA-610 offers a new T4 optical compressor. 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 these compressors their signature sound.

Great front end for digital recording The LA-610 packs tremendous sonic versatility and is an ideal front end for tracking with modern DAWs and the serious project studio looking to get the UA sonic experience : real quality and character at an accessible price. Designed in collaboration with original UREI engineer In collaboration with Dennis Fink, one of the original UREI analog design engineers, the LA-610 was carefully designed to deliver the essence of the "LA" sound but without the costs of being an exact LA-2A component clone. The LA-610 uses three 12AX7As, a single 6072A and a single 6AQ5 tube for amplifier warmth and overall tonal balance. Universal Audio LA610 Features: Complete vintage channel strip at groundbreaking price within project studio reach! Legendary Bill Putnam 610 tube mic pre and EQ used on countless classic recordings Authentic Teletronix LA-2A-style T4 opto-compressor Mic pre with gain and level controls, variable impedance switching, and instrument DI for recording tone "color" UA build quality and heritage, audiophile components, hand-assembled in the USA The Universal Audio LA-610 is a great step up for your studio! Customer Reviews  Definitely a good buy!   by Marvin Querido from Manila, Philippines, May 11, 2007 Music Background:  Session Keyboardist, Arranger, Producer “Next to the Pendulum Audio Quartet, this piece of equipment works the hardest in my studio. Very good for vocals and bass. Recorded the most glorious kick drum sound i've ever heard with this and an akg d112.” • Click Here to Read More Customer Reviews • Write Your Own Review Sweetwater Expert Advice     "If all your digital gizmos still aren't filling the void, check out the LA-610. The LA-610 delivers vintage warmth and smoothness to vocals and instruments, and it's intended to be experimented with like any artist should!" Mike Hammond   "Easily one of the best boxes for the mic front end of a DAW. Simple operation and gorgeous, clean sound, opto-compression and "semi-parametric" EQ make this a first choice for many of my customers (and for me)."
