Hi Steve,
Thanks for the info..............so, you're saying it's an optical gain
reduction element compressor?
Sounds like you have a really nice rig; keep up the good work!
Regards, Jim

I know I said I would post details about some of the modifications I had
done to my console. Sorry the weekend took over and I had no time. Here's
a quick shot of the externals. The comps are a LA3-A, type. The difference
from the LA2-A was the lack of tube. The top pot is ratio and the bottom
is output make up gain. The toggle is a true by-pass. They are extremely
smooth. Just butter on vocals and overheads on the way in. You can really
smash with them but I use them very lightly just to add that little
goodness. The eq setting you see here is my overheads on the way in for my
current project. I shape on the way in and cut on mixdown as needed. I
only really use these series 1 channels for O.H. & vox everything else
goes through the series 1e strips. These sound good on everything but I
have all my channels dedicated per instrument with the eq in a good
starting range. Great for workflow. I have owned Api 512c, Avedis ma5, BAE
312&1272, trident,
Avalon, and many other preamp & eq combo's and all are really good. My
favorite to this day is the series 1e preamp/eq. I specifically remember
tracking bands using other pre's and during mixdown thinking damn I
really wish I just used the neotek console. I ended up selling all my
high end pre's and invested the money in a complete overhaul of my
console. I do not regret it.
