Description

In perfect working order. Expertly built and calibrated. Sounds great on just about everything. Loved it on bass, acoustic guitars, and vocals. I've run out of space right now, I'll probably get a matched pair of them sometime down the road. Has the rogue 5 op amp which sounds killer.From the web:Classic opto leveling with new features and your choice of Modern or Vintage signal path.Classic Opto Leveling, Upgraded Signal Path. The Urei LA-4 leveling amplifier has always lived in the shadows of it's older siblings, the LA-2A and LA-3A. Despite possessing the distinctive, musical compression character its family is known for, the LA-4 was compromised by the muddy sound of early chip technology.With the OLA5, we've painstakingly recreated the LA-4's leveling behavior—including cloning the original opto cell after finding that no modern substitute would do—but that's where the resemblance to the LA-4 ends. The OLA5's signal path is completely overhauled and upgraded. And the workflow hews closer to the LA-2A and LA-3A, while adding new features like a sidechain high-pass filter and parallel MIX control.Modern Clarity or Vintage Tone. Choose between a clean and modern or vintage and colored output stage. If both outputs are installed, you can switch between them with a solderless jumper on the board.The Modern (stock) output is a clean, robust, balanced output for excellent noise performance. Choose this output to use the OLA5 for transparent, natural leveling. This option does not come with an output transformer or DOA (discrete opamp).The optional Vintage output employs an API-style DOA and custom transformer for a livelier dynamic character. The vintage output gives signals a more visceral, forward feeling that helps them translate clearly in a mix while requiring less level to do so.Stepped controls (21 positions) for easy recall and stereo operationAnodized aluminum knobs and front panelUnique, custom opto assembly that replicates the original10-LED gain reduction meterSwitchable wet/dry MIX knobPushbutton select switches:LIM switches between compress (2:1) and limit (selectable) modesHPF filters low-frequencies out of the sidechain (150Hz)MIX engages the wet/dry mix controlLINK enables stereo linking IN engages the compressorOptional vintage DOA/transformer output sectionStep-by-step manual and guaranteed support Fully compatible with the 500-series format
