Altec

Altec Lansing, established in the 1930s, was a prominent audio company known for groundbreaking innovations in professional sound. Their early compressor-limiters, like the Altec 436 and 438, were tube-based units prized for their smooth dynamics control and warm sound. These models became classics, widely used in recording studios and broadcasting, influencing the design of later audio processing equipment.
