The WA76-D2 brings legendary studio compression to your fingertips with authentic 2-channel reproduction of one of the fastest and most beloved compressors in recording history. This powerhouse unit captures the generous headroom, ultra-fast dynamic control, and rich analogue tone that made the original 76-style compressor a studio staple. Built with premium CineMag transformers — O-12 input and 5002 output — the WA76-D2 achieves genuine rev-D style compression with the characteristic "low noise" preamp stage and unmistakably warm analogue character.

Modern recording demands have been met with thoughtful additions including parallel compression capabilities, active and true-bypass options, plus variable sidechain filtering flexibility. These contemporary features make the WA76-D2 perfectly suited to current recording workflows while maintaining that vintage tone shaping quality. The same legendary compression sound used by artists including Missy Elliot, Timbaland, Van Halen, Rick Rubin, and Daft Punk is now accessible for your productions, bringing decades of proven studio magic to your setup.
