Tube-Tech Compressor CL 1B for sale.
Classic valve optical compressor with serious vintage mojo. Legendary on vocals as well as many other sources. This is not a recent/new unit – it’s one of the early builds and sounds truly exceptional. Our techs have fallen for it completely and are requesting that it remain in the studio (with the CL-1A of similar vintage that’s just landed). Offers the effortless and gorgeous smooth musical compression that has made this a studio staple for many top artists and studios. Wish we had a new one to A/B it with as this sounds amazing.
Full working order with warranty. Thoroughly tested and checked over by our techs and being put to work in the Soundgas Studio where it’s in danger of remaining. Guaranteed to sound outstanding.
