The Tube-Tech CL 1B is a modern studio staple for a reason. As a vocal compressor in particular, its mixture of musical opto gain reduction and surprisingly versatile can’t-sound-bad operation have really made it a modern classic.

Featuring both generations of the classic comp in a single interface, Tube-Tech CL 1B Mk II allows you to easily switch between the Mk I and the Mk II versions so you can discover which best suits your production needs. Delivering versatile compression brimming with warm character, the CL 1B effortlessly allows you to beef up your drums, smooth your vocals, or enrich your bass in seconds.

Could it be your new favorite compressor? Most definitely.

Use it to add a rich harmonic tone to electric guitars or go more subtle with a single instance on your master bus for a bit of organic mojo on the way out. Whatever the application, Tape will help you raise your tracks to be the best they can be.

Just add Tape. It’s the reel deal.
