The WA76-D2 accurately reproduces 2-channels of one of the fastest and most loved studio compressors of all time known for its generous headroom, ultra-fast dynamic control, and rich analog tone. Using premium and custom components like O-12 (input) and 5002 (output) transformers from CineMag, WA76-D2 achieves authentic 76 rev D style compression, known for low noise preamp stage with unmistakably analog character. Added modern controls to achieve parallel compression, active & true-bypass, and variable sidechain filtering flexibility make WA76-D2 an ideal choice for modern recording workflows that require vintage tone shaping. WA76-D2 recreates the legendary tone & control of the vintage 76-style compression used in studios by artists like Missy Elliott, Timbaland, Van Halen, Rick Rubin, Daft Punk, and many more.Main Features:100% Analog Discrete 2-Channel FET CompressorFaithful Recreation Of The Vintage Rev D FET Compressor With Added Recording FeaturesVU Meter Options: Gain Reduction | +8dB Output | +4dB Output | Off Powers off unit100-230v IEC Inlet Universal Power SupplyClass-A Line-Level Output Amplifiers100% Discrete Audio Signal Path Using 600 Input Impedance AttenuatorSelectable 10k Input Impedance To Better Match Modern Audio Interface Specifications100% Dry-Wet Mix Control | Variable Sidechain High Pass Filter: 30 – 300Hz, 12dB/OctaveActive Bypass For Running Unit As Line Amplifier & True Bypass Option For A/B Comparisons3 2-Channel Operating Modes: Stereo Linked | Primary:Secondary | Dual-Mono2U 19 Rackmount ChassisUtilizes Premium O-12 Input & 5002 Output Transformers From CineMag USAVintage-Spec Attack & Release: Attack = 20 S – 800 | Release: 50 mS – 1.1 SecondAll-Buttons-In Setting For Experimental & Hard-Limiter TonesFrequency Response: 1 dB 20 Hz – 20 kHzBalanced XLR & TRS Inputs & OutputsTotal Amplifier Gain: 53dBSignal-To-Noise Ratio (SNR): 92dB (a-weighted)Total Harmonic Distortion Ratio (THD+N): -67dB (at -6dBu)Specifications:Product Description & External Specs (Per Channel):100% Analog Discrete FET CompressorFaithful Recreation Of The Vintage Rev D FET Compressor With Added Recording FeaturesVU Meter Options: Gain Reduction | +8dB Output | +4dB Output | Off Powers off unit100-230v IEC Inlet Universal Power SupplySelectable 10k Input Impedance To Better Match Modern Audio Interface Specifications100% Dry-Wet Mix ControlVariable Sidechain High Pass Filter: 30 – 300Hz, 12dB/Octave Stereo Link & External Sidechain AccessActive Bypass For Running Unit As Line Amplifier & True Bypass Option For A/B Comparisons2U 19 Rackmount ChassisAll-Buttons-In Setting For Experimental & Hard-Limiter TonesBalanced XLR & TRS Inputs & OutputsComponents & Internal Specs (Per Channel):Class-A Line-Level Output Amplifier100% Discrete Audio Signal Path Using 600 Input Impedance AttenuatorUtilizes Premium O-12 Input & 5002 Output Transformers From CineMag USAPerformance Specs (Per Channel):Vintage-Spec Attack & Release: Attack = 20 S – 800 | Release: 50 mS – 1.1 SecondFrequency Response: 1 dB 20 Hz – 20 kHzTotal Amplifier Gain: 53dBSignal-To-Noise Ratio (SNR): 92dB (a-weighted)Total Harmonic Distortion Ratio (THD+N): -67dB (at -6dBu)Additional 2-Channel Specs:(3) 2-Channel Operating Modes: Stereo Linked | Primary:Secondary | Dual-MonoNote On WA76-D2: No external sidechain access or stereo linking options.
