The WA76 is great for the price! I owned one until recently. For me I hear the biggest difference in the low end, and from experience, if you try to push it hard it has a bit less headroom than the more expensive units. Sometimes those are good things! I really liked it for making a bass guitar a bit grindy, for example! Personally, I think the UA reissues are a bit pricey for what they deliver, but the AudioScape units or a Hairball 1176 (especially if you build it yourself) are priced really fairly for very high quality "clones". I've got a handful of Hairball 1176s that I built myself in constant use here, both in 19" rack and 500 series format, alongside all my other compressors.

I’ve done my own shootout with an original vs Warm. On percussive sources the UA is so much better. The Warm doesn’t come close. On bass, the Warm is better than the UA, due to extra grit. Maybe I got a lack luster warm unit, I’m not sure. But I also listened to a friend’s mix a while back and I commented that the vocal sound was truly amazing, it turns out it was a WA76. If they improve the Warm on percussion sources in say a mkii version, I will most definitely buy four of them. Exciting company imo

the differences are neglible at safe recording levels, you have to start driving it into light saturation to start to hear it. the WA is actually a bit cleaner than the ones with the vintage transformers from the original production runs, but sometimes people like that 'distressor' type drive.

Thanks, I enjoyed the video. I've been using the WA76 with Rupert Neve Pre and JZ67 or SM7b and getting good results on vocals and acoustic guitar. I haven't had the opportunity to compare with a UA 1176. I find recording with a touch of compression makes my job of mixing the tracks easier, especially for vocals. I'll often use the UA 1176 plugin on the mix as well.

Like every clone of the UA 1176 - they come pretty damn close BUT THERE IS ONE THING: Those high compressed 8K/10K that You can hear for those "S" is just hard to copy for a cheaper units. That's just the hard true. The same with other vintage EQ/compressors. Make it by 24/48 tracks and You've got a CLA'ish clarity for the start. Then mix it with tie same amount of this high top end equipment and it's twice cleaner than normal stuff/in the box. Ofcourse those knock offs are way better for giving You an analogue feeling and puting track/tracks through the tubes but I just didn't hear any cheaper unit to mimique this high end compressed beautiful needle around 8/10K. Great video as always Warren!

Great shootout! I came to this video from the Produce Like A Pro email that was sent. I was wondering why the email referred to the 1176 by "the infamous Universal Audio 1176LN Classic limiting Amplifier". Infamous essentially means famous for a bad reason. Maybe they meant the classic, famous, popular, well known, legendary or industry standard 1176? I think so. Maybe just a misusage of the word. In either case, it got me here! 🙂 Great video! Very nice song.

I think the Warm Audio did a solid job, slightly different sound but that's what is great about hardware as you have more options available that you can pair with microphones for a more diverse sound. The 1176ln had more midrange articulation that suites the WA67 IMHO that slightly lacks compared to a U67. The more tools the better! Thanks for creating all the videos you make. They're informative.
