Warm Audio WA76 Single Channel Discrete Compressor

This is a great compressor for many applications. Construction is solid. Sounds great for lead vocals, I've been using it as an insert for vocals during mixing as well. Not fast enough for the snare sound I want, if you're looking for a snare compressor maybe go for a Distressor. Overall a great buy.

Sumamente transparente con el trabajo que realiza, pero con carácter dejando los audios com mucho poder y estilo. Fácil de usar, pero se debe tener conocimiento previo del manejo. recordemos que es un compresor tipo FET de rápido ataque, es decir si no se controla el IN/OUT, podría saturar rápidamente. Digno de ser una opción viable para obtener un sonido muy, pero muy similar al original 1176 Rev. D

It's work just as good and any compressor out there. It's really a great product that I mainly use on my bass. It also can be utilized in many different studio/recording applications.

This thing is legit! For the price, I challenge anyone to find a superior product with as good of sonic quality and aesthetic appeal. Faithful reproduction of the 1176. Go ahead, take the Pepsi challenge with this bad boy and prepare to be dazzled.

Received the item today 4/24/2022. I video recorded the unboxing, the issue is that I immediately noticed that the item was not packaged well at all. It had zero shipment protection. When i pulled the white wa76 box out, the bottom right had a label on it that did not seem like it was from amazon. The box had no tape or anything that made the box seem new. I opened it up and immediately noticed that the cable was not a power cable for this unit. I pulled the unit out and immediately noticed that the internal component had a shake to it. Probably fixable if amazon fixes this and then sells it as used. The problem is that this unit also had a clear household smell to it. This was very much a broken and used item that was returned and put on the brand new shelf at the amazon warehouse. Likely the last person who sent this back claimed that it was a normal return when it was not. They will need to do some internal examination to figure out if this was a fraudulent return from the last individual. I do notice a few people had some issues and I hope this was not the same unit. The customer support said they will send me a new one and wrap it better, but I am not sure if they will. Hopefully as I need it by Wednesday for a major interview with a prominent figure. All being said, my review is entirely negative atm due to this experience. The customer support asked if I attempted to utilize the equipment and plug it in after I told them 2-3 times prior that this item is clearly used, damaged, and has a cable that is not even the proper cable for the device (it is a power cable with an end that is circular for a separate device. I had no intention of writing this review until the customer support agent began implying that this was a brand new item (it was supposed to be) and kept insinuating that the issue was probably from shipping or on my end. They refused to listen. What prompted me to write this review was because the agent aggressively pushed me off the chat after I reiterated more than 4 times that this issue was broken upon arrival. I want a replacement as I need to do an interview. This guy immediately closed chat right after I said that was the main reason I am in this chat. Very rude. Their name was Mariel or something like that. I will update this review when the replacement arrives. I have the video and photos for evidence in case amazon thinks this issue is on my end.
