Speaking of the company without TOKO inductors. :wink:
I was reading about their opto compressors.

" A similar principle was found in the older Teletronix®** & Urei LA-2A®**, LA-3, and LA-4 units which used a slower electro-luminescent panel-light on a conventional LDR encased in a light-tight enclosure. Ours uses modern VACTROL technology (but with a trick!) for exact sample-to-sample tracking and no high frequency loss while digging deep into limiting-- problems commonly associated with older LA-series limiters and other opto-based units. "
What exactly is their trick? Anybody reverse engineered their Vactrol control circuit?
