TL Audio Ivory 5021 Tube Compressor
Valve compression is now universally recognized as one of the essential tools for today's recording engineer. The Ivory 5021 provides everything you would expect from a TL Audio compressor: first class audio quality, bags of flexibility and a price tag so modest you'd be forgiven for thinking it was a printing error. Now the TL Audio 5021 Compressor features hard and soft knee modes, four attack and release times, an improved optical gate design and an optional digital output. Like the C-1 compressor, the 5021 uses TL Audio's special transconductance amplifier design that avoids the use of VCAs, ensuring maximum audio transparency. So whether you're hitting the end stops or just providing gentle dynamic control, the 5021 delivers super-smooth results every time.

The 5021 employs two valve stages per channel, in the form of a Sovtek ECC83/12AX7A twin triode valve run from a stabilized 150V DC supply. One stage is in the preamp, and the other is in the gain control element of the compressor.
