APPLIED RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY PRO VLA III

Applied Research and Technology has launched the Pro VLA III multi-voice compressor. Like the earlier models, the Pro VLA III is an optical compressor with two channels that can be used independently or linked for stereo operation. Multiple meters lets users simul- taneously monitor input, output and gain reduction levels. New to version III, the voice switch selects between a 12AT7 tube and solid state signal path to best complement the source material. The ratio range has been extended down to 1.25:1, providing even more subtle control for tracking, mixing and mastering. The updated version also features increased headroom, lower background noise and improved channel symmetry in the linked stereo mode. The front panel has also been refreshed to match the Pro Channel III . {artproaudio.com}
