Standard Audio's Level-Or MKII is back in stock and ready to bring some compelling compression and more to your rack. Try out Level mode for a high ratio limiter or opt for Crunch to run your signal through a series of Class A discrete transistors: bit.ly/SALevelOr

Larry Crane: "It works, it's fun, and it offers a versatile way to achieve a wide variety of highly useable sonic mutations quickly. I think it's staying in the rack." tapeop.com/reviews/gear/161/โ€ฆ

Vintage King and @highnotefm are teaming up in the Studios Spaces series to highlight some of our favorite workspaces this April. Longtime producer, mix engineer, and composer Jim Kaufman recently revitalized his studio, and the room turned out amazing.

Anyone thatโ€™s used a Level-Or knows what we mean by โ€˜Smash & Grab!' The Level-Or Mk2 has two distinct operating modes, Level for aggressive JFET limiting and Crunch for mellow-to-extreme Class-A distortion & grit. Visit our website (link in bio) to find a dealer near you!

its an incredible compressor without even starting on all the filter options

The Stretch is as flexible as it is enigmatic. A complete 4-band multiband compressor with one-of-a-kind filter options that enable radical tone shaping and enhancement. The classic noise-reduction "Stretch" mode is just the tip of the iceberg. Curious? instagram.com/p/Cj_Iyw_v7Fh/โ€ฆ
