We know our productsUniversal Audio UA-1176-COMP-U Studio Compressor Pedal
The Universal Audio UAFX 1176 Studio Compressor leverages the company's industry-leading emulation technology to pack the sound of the illustrious 1176LN Limiting Amplifier into a compact stompbox. You'll benefit from three modes of classic guitar compression effects with familiar 1176-style Input, Output, Attack, and Release controls. You also get a Ratio knob, which includes the world-famous "all buttons in" mode, supplying you with the gritty, hyper-compressed textures pro engineers have relied on for decades. The 1176 Studio Compressor also includes a parallel compression mode and selectable true- or buffered-bypass switching. Whether you want to inject some punch into your clean tones, infuse your lead work with FET-fueled sustain, or add a studio-quality sheen to your guitar rig, the UAFX 1176 Studio Compressor is destined to become a staple on pedalboards everywhere.
Familiar 1176-style controls
Those who have used a rackmount 1176LN will find operating the UAFX 1176 Studio Compressor is like meeting up with an old friend. Just like its studio hardware predecessor, this guitar effects pedal includes Input and Output knobs for dialing in your gain reduction and output levels, plus easy-to-use Attack and Release knobs. The 1176 Studio Compressor's Ratio knob ranges from Off all the way through All — a.k.a. "all buttons in" — for those occasions when a full-blown nuke is desired.
One pedal, three modes
The Universal Audio UAFX 1176 Studio Compressor gives you three flexible modes. Single mode is perfect for giving your signal a subtle squeeze, much like running your guitar into a single 1176LN hardware unit. Dual mode replicates running your signal into two units wired in parallel for a thunderous compressed crunch. Lastly, Sustain mode will give your solos that "special something" that always seems untouchable for anyone outside a professional studio. The guitarists are blown away by how perfectly the 1176 Studio Compressor replicates the iconic tones and effects we've been chasing. Best of all, you can put it right on your pedalboard — no studio rack required.
Indispensable extra features
Universal Audio designed the UAFX 1176 Studio Compressor so that you can integrate it effortlessly into any guitar rig. Its parallel compression mode functions as a wet/dry control. You also get selectable true- or buffered-bypass switching, allowing you to put it in front of anything, such as a fuzz pedal, whether it likes buffers or not.
