Toneloc Level-Loc Compressor ColourThe Shure Level loc was a cheap, brick wall limiter made in the '60s which seemed destined to languish in junk bins and obsolete public address systems. However, it's distinctive, trashy character earned it a second life as a secret weapon in the racks of 90's 2000's mixing engineers. And once the word got out that the Level loc was behind some famously flavorful drum sounds, it's used price ballooned to $200 300. Tonecraft Audio's John Erickson, of A

The Shure Level-loc was a cheap, brick-wall limiter made in the '60s which seemed destined to languish in junk bins and obsolete public address systems. However, it's distinctive, trashy character earned it a second life as a secret weapon in the racks of 90's/2000's mixing engineers. And once the word got out that the Level-loc was behind some famously flavorful drum sounds, it's used price ballooned to $200-300.

Tonecraft Audio's John Erickson, of A-Designs Pacifica fame, has packed the Level-Loc circuitry into a Colour module, the Toneloc. The Toneloc recreates the Level-loc's peculiar attack/release time constants and dense distortion character.

As it contains all the circuitry of a full compressor, the Toneloc is an advanced kit recommended for experienced builders.

MKII Improvements

The Toneloc mkII contains the exact same circuitry that made the original such a popular Colour, with an added Release option and easier assembly.

The mkII version features a solderless jumper to select between two release times. FST is the default option which matches the behavior of the original unit. SLO is slower than the original release time, and will make the compression smoother and less aggressive. Part of the character of the Toneloc is that the release time varies based on the input level, so there is no single time constant for either setting.

The Toneloc mkII uses surface-mount resistors and ceramic capacitors. These parts come pre-populated, making the assembly process much faster and easier than the original.

The most comfy shoes I own!
Size: 9.5, Color: Sand Suede
Do you know what I mean when I say these shoes are so ugly they are cute? They are not the prettiest shoes but boy do I love them!!! And I get tons of compliments all the time. They are sooooo comfortable! It’s like walking on cushions! They run a little big so I would suggest going down a 1/2 of size. I wear them with dresses and pants. I can wear these all day and that’s important for a 60ish year old woman! A little pricey but well worth every penny!

Love them
Size: 5.5, Color: Red Pepper
I have gotten so many compliments on these shoes! They’re true to size and comfortable. Because of the material feet might sweat easier if hot but they dry quick. Quality is great and the color looks good, it’s more of a orange/red color. I got a 5.5 size
