Tegeler Audio Manufaktur Vocal Leveler 500

The Tegeler Audio Vocal Leveler is a 500 series classic Opto compressor with a no-frills design. With just two knobs for gain reduction and output volume, you have exactly the parameters at hand that you really 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.

More than just for your voice

The musical compression behavior typical of Opto compressors makes the Vocal Leveler a flexible dynamics tool that is not only suitable for voices. Signals such as bass, acoustic guitars, etc. also get along very well with its soft, inconspicuous compression. The Vocal Leveler remains transparent and subtle, even when it’s hit a little hotter, and thus also serves as optimal protection against overloading signal peaks during recording without destroying the micro-dynamics or the character of your audio signal.
