Citation : The LA-610 Channel Strip
Thank you for purchasing the LA-610 Channel Strip. This unit combines a modified channel of our 2-610 Mic Pre with an LA2A style T4 Optical Compressor. Our 610 was inspired by the microphone preamp section of the 610 tube console designed by my father, M.T. “Bill” Putnam, in the 1950s. The 610 was a rotary-control console and was the first console of the modular design. Although technologically simple compared to modern consoles, the 610 possessed a warmth and character that kept it in demand for decades. As a prominent part of my father’s United/Western studios, the 610 was used on many classic recordings by Frank Sinatra and Sarah Vaughan. The Beach Boys Pet Sounds, the Doors LA Woman, and Van Halen’s debut album were all recorded on the 610. The legendary Wally Heider used the 610 in his remote truck for many of his bestknown live recordings. At Ocean Way Studios (formerly United), the 610 is lovingly preserved and still used in Studio B.
The T4 Compressor element in the LA-610 is identical to the circuit components housed inside the T4 optical cell used on the legendary LA-2A compressor. The heart and soul of the LA-2A is mostly a result of this special optical gain control element. The unique and musical behavior of the LA-2A is present in the LA-610 as well, the main difference being a more colored sonic signature with the LA-610. Unlike the LA-2A, the LA-610
offers a wide variety of tone and character by virtue of the dual stage level controls and EQ section. The incredible price/value of the LA-610 is the result of using the existing 610 tube amplifier and simply adding the T4 optical element creating a mono channel strip that can serve as a mic or Instrument preamp with or without EQ and compression. In addition, the LA-610 has a line level input for use as a dedicate compressor with or
without EQ and tube saturation. In addition to the LA-610, Universal Audio has released reproductions of the classic Teletronix LA-2A Leveling Amplifier and 1176LN Limiter as well as the 610 tube preamp and 2108 microphone preamplifier, which is based on the 1108 line amps that
were used in my father’s studios. Universal Audio also creates software emulation’s of our vintage hardware that run on our UAD-1 DSP card as well as Digidesign’s Pro Tools platform. All of these products are designed to meet the demands of the modern recording studio, yet retain the character of vintage equipment. Please visit www.uaudio.com to see and read about other great recording tools from Universal Audio. These products have been quite an enjoyable adventure to develop and we’re sure the next phase will be even more fun! We thank you for your support and we thank my father, Bill Putnam.

Thank you,
Bill Putnam
