The LA-610 MkII is based on the legendary console modules developed
by Bill Putnam in the 60's. Noted for their musical character and
warmth, innumerous classics by artists ranging from Sinatra to Van Halen
have been recorded using these preamps. After the preamp section, the
LA-610 MkII offers the T4 optical compressor. The simple operation and
program-dependent nature of the LA-610 T4 compressor provides the same
extremely musical control that has made the LA-2A such a well-loved
classic for more than 40 years. The electro-optical detector, or "T4
cell, is the heart and soul of the Teletronix LA-2A. Its unique
combination of electro-luminescent panel and photo-resistors are the
crucial circuit components, giving the compressor its signature sound.
