Tegeler Audio Vocal Leveler 500 500 Series Opto Compressor

The Vocal Leveler is a classic optical compressor with no frills.

With just two knobs for gain reduction and output volume, you have exactly the parameters at hand that you need to achieve fast and convincing results.

Thanks to the link function and stepped potentiometers nothing stands in the way of processing stereo signals and recalling your settings easily.
You can also control the reaction times of the compressor via a toggle switch and are thus prepared for a wide variety of recording or mixing situations.
