Similar
in design philosophy to classic tube limiters, ART’s Dual Levelar features
electro-optical (Vactrol®) and vacuum tube electronics. This design delivers
superior dynamics control, musicality and classic sound without the pumping,
breathing and noise associated with most VCA-based compressors.
The Dual Levelar offers both compression and limiting settings in either dual
channel or stereo configurations. In the same fashion as the Pro VLA (its
“big brother” and Electronic Musician Editor’s Choice award winner), the Dual
Levelar allows you to apply heavy amounts of compression without hearing it.
Due to its very fast attack and release response times, the Dual Levelar provides
the "classic" punchy and transparent characteristics of the "LA-" type compressors.
Ask any audio engineer what makes a great compressor/ limiter and they will
tell you - "sound". Classic compressors and limiters have a "sound". Tubes
alone were not responsible for this sound, but rather the complete circuit
design. The Dual Levelar has characteristics reminiscent of these classic
pieces, and offers a "sound" you simply cannot get elsewhere.
For the latest in state-of-the-art tube compression and limiting, we invite
you to pick up the next link in your signal processing chain with the ART
Dual Levelar. Check one out at your nearest authorized ART dealer today.
