Picking up where UA's legacy LA-2A plug-in left off, the new LA-2A plug-in collection provides unrivaled emulations of three distinct Teletronix hardware units, right down to their transformers, amplifiers, and aged luminescent panels.
The original LA-2A hardware — still hand-built at UA headquarters in Scotts Valley, California — is an audio industry icon, bringing smooth, warm compression to anything it touches, especially vocals. With the new LA-2A Classic Leveler Plug-In Collection, Universal Audio modeled the entire electronic path of three highly coveted hardware units — "Silver," "Gray," and the original LA-2 model — providing the most authentic plug-in emulations available of this iconic compressor.

Feb 16 - 03:23 PM | Plug-ins > StepSequencer |
An upgrade of the step sequencer "Lauflicht" for the Novation Launchpad to the version 3 has been released. The plugin for Renoise is a moving light, multitrack and multitimbral step sequencer with 8, 16 or 32 steps, turning your Launchpad(s) into a hardware step sequencer. It was especially designed for editing beats, melodies and patterns without the mouse in order to allow an intuitive workflow in the studio or an excellent possibility to perform live.
The version 3 has two new core features: multiple Launchpads support and a new pattern load and mix mode in real time.
If more than one Launchpad is connected to the computer, the plugin will detect all Launchpads automatically and cascade them to one big hardware step sequencer. Two Launchpads will result into a hardware 16 step sequencer and four Launchpads will result into a hardware 32 step sequencer. With the different note resolution modes and unlimited tracks this setup leads to a huge level of granularity and in-depth step sequencing.
