I thought it was broken, but I was informed I was using it wrong - which is weird since I've never had a problem with any other compressor.
So, I'm not really into UA hardware. It never seems to do what I want it to do. Perhaps I'm just using it wrong. But there's plenty of other pieces of hardware that do exactly what I want them to do, so I doubt how much time I'll take to learn how to use them correctly. |
I feel UA hardware can be difficult to set just right sometimes, for instance the 610 preamps, especially the LA-610.
However I have never had an easier to use compressor than my 1176LN, and such depth it delivers!
I find the LA-2A to be practically a plug and play box. Everything that goes in comes out sounding better regardless of how its used.
but thats just lil ol' me!
