Best comparison ever. Please do keep this format!!
Thank you!
Great Video!!! If you click and hold the Fabfllter spectrum will turn blue & freeze😃
Great video on the LA 2A vs the WA 2A!!!!!..... But I really can not wait to see your comparison video on the LA 2A vs the Audioscape Opto Comp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......
Yeh same here I need to get my hands on one first lol
Awesome video! Thanks for taking the time to do this. I do know for a fact that you could take an extra step from a calibration standpoint. When speaking with one of the engineers at Black Lion audio, he informed me that there is essentially a sensitivity calibration knob inside of each unit, it could be that even though the meters are saying that they’re compressing the same amount, they actually aren’t. For your own personal use, I would definitely consider calibrating that knob inside of each unit this one ensure that the meter responds in a way that correctly reflects the amount of gain reduction. Awesome video, my friend!
That’s great to know. Thanks for the tip
Thanks great video
Glad you enjoyed it
WARM was good for Bass but man those Drum Samples and Piano differences... it's pretty much clear the price tag difference, and the limitations of the hardware itself. Personally, I wouldn't mind owning any of those, like I see every piece of gear as usable it only depends on the context. For me here, I would pick LA-2A whenever I'm after a cleaner more transparent sound and the Warm Audio for more character, punchy saturation and bite, or maybe make the sounds more lofi and destroy the samples, kinda like a real life devil-loc. Of course, if it's a clone you should expect they do the same or something I personally don't care but I get the argument of "What's the point if it's failing on doing what the original it's supposed to" or something like that. But like I said before I would be very happy if I had any of those on my studio and just being able to run audio on them for fun.
The room mic example is night and day. Surprised by how different they are on that source.
Agreed!
It’s amazing how the difference between them changes as you change the source, some more some less and some are almost identical.
That’s why at the end of the day the gear will never replace the engineer you have to always use your ears to get to the result you want
Vocals are also... LA2A please. I would pay the extra $$$. Difference I suddenly don't mind.
Commenting so I can come back to this video lol!
Haha!! Hope you enjoy it.
The WA killed the transients on the piano.
I love the UA but honestly in a record with with all the other stuff no one will be able to tell the difference
I don’t disagree!
I have the Golden Age Project’s version of the LA2A and it’s nice. I would love for someone to have a shoot out between the Golden Age Projects version and the Warm Audio version. In the box I use the UVI Opal for an LA2A emulation
Where are you located ?
@@fadygergis In NYC
@PharaohLawLess1 I was gonna say if you wanna bring it over but that won’t work I am in KC MO
@@fadygergis Lol oh ok
I wonder how the Audioscape version compares
I know. I have heard great things about it.
But haven’t had my hand on one yet.
Honestly the wa-2a is great. Update the opto with black lion opto and you’re set
🙏
on the room mic, the LA kills that WA. Muffled is exactly how I would describe that WA.
Agreed on the drums room mic I could tell the difference the most.
The question isnt is it better but a 4,000 better... and id say no its not
Really? You don’t know what a LPF is? 🤡
What are you talking about?
