Authentic UA 1176 Compressor in Your PedalboardIntroduced in 1967, the Universal Audio 1176 is an unmatched limiter, heard on more classic albums than any other compressor. Now, thanks to the UAFX engine, the 1176 Studio Compressor delivers the same punchy and expressive sounds that have been the hallmark of this legendary equipment – in a compact stompbox format.

Three Legendary Sounds in One PedalThe compression modes Single, Dual, and Sustain allow for a variety of iconic sounds – from the subtle compression of a single 1176, through the endless sustain of two units in the style of Lowell George, to the compressed crunch of Led Zeppelin IV. All of this is possible thanks to the three legendary 1176 configurations.

Enhance Your Clean TonesFrom '70s slide to funky picking, the 1176 Studio Compressor offers iconic sound for every musical genre. With simple Attack and Release controls and infinite Ratio settings, including the famous "all-buttons-in" mode, you'll get classic and unique sounds.

Classic Compression from Stage to StudioDesigned for reliable performance both on stage and in the studio, the 1176 Studio Compressor features switchable true/buffered bypass and parallel compression mode.
