Description

Modeled on the legendary electro-optical tube compressor, the CLA-2A compressor/limiter plugin emulates the original’s smooth, frequency-dependent behaviors that have made it a favorite of engineers everywhere. Like the mid-‘60s classic, the CLA-2A sounds great on guitars and bass, and really shines on vocals. Top it all off with Chris Lord-Alge’s personal presets, and seemingly limitless instantiations, and you’ve got a model that surpasses its inspiration. Featuring compressor and limiter modes, a sidechain frequency filter, zero latency, and great on guitar, bass, and vocals.

Aside from some of the sonic characteristics from different units, compression with the FF C2 may give you a launching point to start to hear differences. Use it across an entire practice mix and then notice how your needs for different feels and movements require different parameters. I'd...
