Description
Discover the Warm Audio WA76 Discrete Compressor
At Terry Carter Music Store, we proudly present the Warm Audio WA76 Discrete Compressor. This Class A line-level output amplifier is inspired by the sought-after D revision of the iconic solid-state limiting amplifier. Given that it features a completely discrete signal path, this compressor delivers exceptional audio quality for your recordings. It utilizes US-made Cinemag input and output transformers, ensuring reliable performance every time.
Exceptional Performance and Versatility
The WA76 supports the famous all-buttons-in ratio setting, providing flexibility in sound shaping. It boasts an ultra-fast attack time, achieving 55dB of gain with ease. In fact, this compressor has an input impedance of 600 ohms, along with a bridges-T control feature. The frequency response spans from 20Hz to 20kHz, maintaining high fidelity. With XLR and TRS inputs and outputs, connectivity is straightforward and efficient.
Unmatched Sound Quality and Reliability
Furthermore, the Warm Audio WA76 Discrete Compressor achieves less than 0.4% total harmonic distortion from 50Hz to 20kHz while limiting. The signal-to-noise ratio exceeds 74dB at +25dBm, ensuring clarity in your mixes. The equivalent input noise is impressively low at -104.1dBm. During operation, the meter provides clear dB gain reduction and output readings. This 2U, 19" rackmount chassis is designed for both professional and home studios alike.
