Used ART Pro VLA II Two-Channel Tube Optical Compressor

The ART Pro VLA II is a professional two-channel tube optical compressor and leveling amplifier designed to deliver smooth, musical dynamic control for recording, mixing, mastering, live sound, and broadcast applications. Utilizing a VCA-less Vactrol® optical compression circuit paired with a tube gain stage, the Pro VLA II provides transparent compression at subtle settings while adding rich harmonic warmth and character when driven harder. Each channel features independent Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release, and Output controls, along with detailed VU and LED metering, and the unit can operate in dual-mono or stereo-linked modes for exceptional flexibility. Balanced XLR and 1/4-inch I/O, selectable +4 dBu/-10 dBV operating levels, and ART's renowned low-noise design make the Pro VLA II an outstanding choice for vocals, bass, guitars, drums, stereo bus compression, and mastering applications. It has earned a reputation as one of the best values in tube optical compression for both professional and home studios.
