Warm audio WA76-D
The WA 76-D is a faithful reproduction of the "Revision D" FET analog compressor with additional recording features offered by Warm Audio.
The WA76-A accurately reproduces one of the most legendary studio compressors, renowned for its generous headroom, lightning-fast dynamic control and rich sonic texture.
Using high-quality components such as CineMag's O-12 input and 5002 output transformers, the WA76-D reproduces the famous 76 Rev-D compression, known for its low-noise preamp and unique analog character.
Modern controls have been integrated, including parallel compression, bypass, input impedance selection and flexible sidechain options.
Ideal for adding a vintage touch to contemporary recordings, the WA76-A recreates the iconic sound embraced by artists and producers such as Chris Lord-Alge, Missy Elliott, Timbaland, Van Halen, Rick Rubin, and Daft Punk.
