Waves CLA Intro |
The CLA Classic Compressors bundle comes with four compressors. The CLA-2A is modelled on perhaps the most famous tube-opto compressor in sound engineering, known for its transparent sound and its relatively low harmonic distortion. The CLA-3A is another accurate software emulation of a famous solid state opto compressor offering a warm, but discrete subtle harmonic distortion.
Waves CLA Classic collection comes with two versions of the famous CLA-76 compressor series. The CLA-76 "Bluey" and "Blackie" are modelled on the revised B version and later D-LN version of a famous solid-state FET compressor from the 60s and 70s respectively.
With Waves CLA Classic Compressors Software you can harness the unmatched power, these tried and tested compressors deliver, in your computer setup. With these plugins used correctly, you can perfect the vision for your mix, whatever the vision these compressors can deliver.
