Same As It Ever Was.

From the fast attack of the legendary 1176LN Limiting Amplifier, to the smooth tube-driven Teletronix LA-2A electro-optical compressor, to the classic 610 mic preamp — Universal Audio analog equipment has defined the sound of innumerable records for six decades.

Each UA Reissue, tube or solid state, is hand-built in our Custom Shop in Santa Cruz, California. We use identical components and painstaking old-school manufacturing techniques, delivering undeniably warm, rich and inspiring sound. And with forward-looking hardware like OX Amp Top Box, Universal Audio continues to innovate in the analog realm — same as it ever was.

True to the original design, UA’s famed tube-amplified T4 electro-optical compressor.

For over 50 years the Teletronix LA-2A has been revered for its smooth, natural, musical compression. WIth its unique tube-driven electro-optical attenuator system that allows instantaneous gain reduction with no increase in harmonic distortion, the LA-2A massages signals like no other compressor ever made.


Dial-in legendary optical tube compression textures for vocals, bass, drums, and more

Record your tracks through vintage UA, "handmade in the USA," circuits

Easily add iconic warmth and tube limiting with simple, easy-to-use controls

Track and mix with a piece of audio recording history

The Teletronix Story

The Teletronix Story

Teletronix founder Jim Lawrence first used photocells for controlling audio gain in the early 1960s. His ingenious optical compression design was a technological breakthrough, far surpassing the stability and transparency of earlier circuits. Universal Audio founder M.T. ”Bill” Putnam later purchased this patented technology, continuing to manufacture the LA-2A for years to come.


The Real Deal

Universal Audio’s Teletronix LA-2A Classic Leveling Amplifier reissue provides the performance characteristics of the iconic original. With painstaking care, every new LA-2A unit is point-to-point handwired at Universal Audio's Custom Shop in Santa Cruz, California, with every component carefully evaluated for authenticity. As a result, today’s LA-2A will bring the same legendary compression characteristics of the original to all of your recordings. Demand the original. Accept no copy.
