The legendary 1176 compressor that shaped countless classic records since 1967 is now available in a compact stompbox format. Universal Audio's 1176 Studio Compressor brings the punchy, expressive character of the world-renowned hardware unit to your pedalboard, powered by their advanced UAFX engine for authentic analogue warmth and response.
This versatile compressor offers three iconic 1176 configurations, from the gentle squeeze of a single unit to the parallel setup favoured by Lowell George, plus the compressed crunch that defined Led Zeppelin IV. The simple Attack and Release controls, combined with infinite Ratio settings and the infamous "all buttons in" mode, provide everything from subtle dynamics control to completely smashed tones that cut through any mix.
Perfect for any musical style, the 1176 Studio Compressor handles everything from slithery '70s slide guitar to chicken picking and funk with equal finesse. Built for professional use both on stage and in the studio, it features switchable true/buffered bypass and parallel compression mode, all housed in a robust, pedalboard-friendly enclosure that's built to last decades.
