Unique Optical Compressor with Modern Features
The brilliant Neold U2A optical compressor plug-in has everything you love about LA-2A-style compressors, with additional control and flexibility that make this beloved compressor even more versatile. You can use the Aging knob to blend between differently aged devices. There are also a Recovery control for adaptable release times and a Drive knob for saturation that won't affect compression. Plus, no modern compressor plug-in would be complete without a sidechain, a dry/wet Mix control, comparison options, and a host of presets — all of which you'll find in the Neold U2A. Add to this the true-to-life behavior of a hardware LA-2A-style compressor, and you have a compressor plug-in that's sure to become a staple in your productions.

Blend the sound of two different units
Some prefer the sound of a brand-new compressor, whereas others might prefer a more aged one that has seen some usage over the years. While you can choose between one sound or the other, the Neold U2A’s unique Aging knob allows you to continuously blend the sound of a newly serviced compressor and a more vintage device. This thoughtful control enables you to add as much or as little grit as you like.
More versatile than ever
With a Recovery control for adaptable release times and a Drive knob for independently adjustable saturation that won't affect compression, the Neold U2A is even more versatile and user-friendly than classic LA-2A-style compressors. Whereas the original hardware exceptionally shone on a few sources, Sweetwater studio engineers have found that they can use the Neold U2A on almost anything.
Must-haves for modern workflows
Finally, your workflow will benefit from the Neold U2A's sidechain filter, a Mix knob for dialing in the ideal amount of compression, A/B/C/D comparison options, and a broad range of factory presets that make excellent launchpads for your ideas.
