• [Sound＆Recoring WEB] Review of WARM AUDIO Discrete FET Compressor "WA76-D2" Published!

  

  2025/02/17

  A review of the WARM AUDIO Discrete FET Compressor "WA76-D2" has been published in the online version of Sound & Recording Magazine.
  The WARM AUDIO "WA76-D2" faithfully reproduces the fastest and most powerful studio compressor known for its ultra-fast dynamic control and rich analog tone in a two-channel format. It seamlessly blends a vintage analog character with a modern workflow by incorporating contemporary controls such as parallel compression, active & true bypass, and variable sidechain filtering.
  Engineers' reviews have been highly positive, stating that "even with strong compression, the S/N ratio remains good, and the sound image does not become overly blurred." They also praise its "richness characteristic of analog gear, well-balanced distortion, and a satisfying midrange presence similar to the 1176." Additionally, they highlight its excellent value, noting that "considering it as a 'well-maintained 1176-style compressor available in stereo,' it is an attractive and cost-effective product." Be sure to check it out!
