Up for consideration is a brand new Warm Audio WA76 compressor / limiter -- a modern recreation of the classic Urei/Universal Audio 1176 Revision D limiter, complete with the original design Reichenbach/CineMag transformer. Originally released by Urei in 1968, the Bill Putnam design was the first solid-state peak-limiter on the market, and soon became a staple of every major recording studio for the last 50 years.

USER TESTIMONIALS
"WA76's can sound like an 1176, but they can also do their own thing. It is excellent on snare. We also used it on trumpet with a ribbon mic and it sounded huge!!!"
