An 1176 on STEROIDS - Stam Audio SA-76D+ Compressor
I don’t know about you, but I don’t have $11,000 laying around to buy a vintage 1176 compressor… But now I don’t need to!
The STAM Audio SA-76D Plus shares many of the features of the classic 1176 hardware, as well as some awesome modern touches, like one feature in particular that I never saw on an 1176 before … for about 90% less $$$ compared to a used 1176 Rev D found on Ebay.
In today’s video, I’ll go over these features and show you how I use the SA-76D Plus to compress drums, bass, acoustic, and vocals!
Do you prefer plugins or hardware compression in your mixes?
Let me know what you use!

Do you record or mix with hardware compressors? Let me know down below!

[@pdxgoathead]

Hi Chris. I have the SA400-5 and the 76A-5. Theyre in my 500 rack as external fx in c12. I use the externals during tracking to extend my channels to 24 with outboard pres and use the compressors often for vox monitor so they can push into it without printing. Also use them all during mixdown. Seems I always find a place they fit nicely. OTS Enjoyed your videos. They were helpful filling in areas where I didnt have as much exposure to the features. Loving c12, wish there was a mix% on the fw loop tho!

[@BullyMaguire4ever]

What is the attack time range with the slow attack mode setting?

[@PeaKock-be]

stam is amazing! I got the 6th sa76 d+ they made, needless to say I was quick to buy the unit once they announced it... the extra features are so amazing. I also have the stam sa47 mk2, the combination of both is a match made in heaven...or better yet, in Chile :p

[@DanielGuillaud]

hello chris. thanks for this presentation of this very interesting 1176. the slow position is a very good idea, it could make me buy it. and the tube position why not :) I almost always use the 10dc bae for recordings it adds du beurre dans les épinards :) and for mixing it is simply unbeatable on the kik. I also use for mixing a la2a for vocals and bass. my 1176 still in British mod position. for an essential parallel comp I use it on everything. this stam will be perfect for my vocal channel. I also use tegeler cream rc on my mix bus. it also works superbly on female voices i will test more things with it. Merci Chris

[@mixdownonline]

Looks like you have a nice setup, Daniel! This SA-76 D+ definitely works well on vocals, you will love it if you put your hands on one :-) Thanks for watching!

[@PurpleMusicProductions]

This looks promising. I work with analog gear in a hybrid setup. My interface is a RME Ucx II and RME Octamic 8, UAD MK610, BAE 1073. My Neve lunchbox has a SSL VHD Pre, dbx 160A and BAE 500c. I'm running Adam Audios 7X7s as my monitors. Cubase is my DAW of course lololol. My BAE 500c is a FET compressor, modeled after the original 1176 and honestly I haven't found a plugin that pleases my ears in the same way. The same is true for my DBX160a which is a VCA. When those along with my UAD MK610 give that hint or actual distortion it truly is magical and the instruments damn near mix themselves. So much body, harmonics, cream and girth. I'm still a student and constantly trying to learn and get better. I started out with purely in the box, but once I added some analog it is worlds different at least for me. It also takes you out of the incessant new plugins arms race, as you won't have a need to chase. I don't need a new saturator plugin or tape delay emulator, because I have real transformers and circuits. But be warned once you got analog it becomes an addiction and your credit card or bank account needs an intervention lololol.

[@mixdownonline]

Nice setup you have here :-) Yes, analog gear can be a rabbit hole where the bank don't follow Lol!

[@PurpleMusicProductions]

@@mixdownonline aye many thanks brother. I like your setup as well from what I have seen.... Omg yes. Whenever I look at my receipts I constantly have that conversation of "what was I thinking?" lololol

[@hanisiblini]

Hello Chris very exciting as usual congrats. I am asking for a favor regards your first cubase 12 episode you made kast March you demonstrate the Korn Nanokontrol. I am very interested in buying one. Do you know by chance if i can control the PreGain on the EQ page with a knob ? I looked on the net and found no clue Thanks bro.

[@hanisiblini]

Sent to your inbox thanks again

[@hanisiblini]

I found the video you gave the answers in. Sorry for disturb bro i am going to buy it love

[@mixdownonline]

No problem, glad you found the video that answers your question :-)

[@PaulIsbell]

I love the 175 and 176 plugins from UAD so the added tubes give me some of that richness to the 1176 that I’ve been craving.

[@LeBeautiful]

Stam audio going crazy 😂its either them or WA for me

[@3dogrecordingstudio628]

This looks very interesting.........🤔

[@mixdownonline]

I had a feeling that would catch your attention ;-)

[@brandonbee2816]

I mix hybrid with cubase. I love it. Stam is such a great company too. I wish that 1176 was a stereo to use it on a vocal buss

[@Bcwilderness]

hi what interface is this going too i cant get the external plugin to work on cubase with my prism im sick of it lol

[@pdxgoathead]
