The WesAudio ng76 FET Compressor is a fully analog FET compressor with digital recall and automation.
FET compressors have been an essential tool in recording studios for over 50 years. Its distinctive sound and reliability have made it a go-to for producers and engineers around the world. The 76-style FET compressor has left its mark on countless hit records which has helped to establish its reputation as a reliable and versatile tool in the recording technology. We have improved this design, creating a whole new level of versatility with seamless DAW integration – We present ng76 – fully analog FET compressor with digital recall!
Carnhill transformers
Transformers in audio compressors aren’t just for electrical isolation – they can add a warm, sonic saturation we all love in our recordings. Carnhill transformers are part of the ng76 adding all that vintage flavor!
Saturation mode
Special mode where static compression is triggered to produce sonics based on FET circuit, and One knob which sets INPUT and OUTPUT in an opposite way. It allows the use of the unit as a saturation box / clipper. The harder the drive will hit the compression and saturation circuit, the more sonic content we will get!
Hardware A/B buttons to compare two independent settings
Even using ng76 as a pure analog signal processor you can easily switch between two parallel settings with the magic of a simple button.
USB or Ethernet Connectivity
ng76 supports direct USB connection, or you can also managed it in your local network, just plug in ethernet cable to Your router!
Analog Automation
I’m sure all of us wanted to use different device settings based on the song section. Now it is possible! Just draw automation lines in your DAW and your analog device will follow! And remember, you can use five touch sensitive encoders to record automation TO your DAW!
