Soft-Clipper - disengaging all the Ratio buttons (Shift+Click the currently selected ratio) disables compression, but signal continues to pass through the 1176 circuitry. It can add a very useful, gritty compression effect, especially pronounced in all-buttons mode. Fastest attack and release constants produce abrupt level fluctuations that sound like distortion. Grit Technique - great for bass, synths and screaming lead vocals. The unique and constantly shifting compression curve that results yields a trademark overdriven tone intrinsic to the 1176 family. The ratio is between 12:1 and 20:1, and the bias points change all over the circuit. In this mode, saturation increases radically due to a lag time on the attack of the initial transients. Great for adding snap and punch to drumsĪll-Buttons-Mode - great for saturating drums and bass, as well as putting vocals in your face.Good for mid-range content (synths, vocals, snares etc).The actual release time varies slightly based on the particular model in use and partially depends on the program material. Release - 50 milliseconds to 1100 milliseconds. The 1176AE offers a fixed 10 ms Attack mode when fully counter-clockwise. Lower ratios will maintain the fastest attack times.
The actual attack time varies slightly based on the selected ratio and the particular model in use. This model provides UA’s rare 1176 40th Anniversary Edition, complete with exclusive mods including its lower 2:1 compression ratio and a fixed “super slow” 10 ms attack mode.Īttack - 20 microseconds to 800 microseconds. This model covers the early 70’s / Brad Plunkett “LN” (Low Noise) era of the 1176 circuit lineage, with variations including a more linear compression response, transistor gain amplification, and a change to the program dependency. This model represents the original Putnam FET limiter design, complete with its higher distortion and unique FET gain amplifier characteristics. The 1176 Classic Limiter Plug-In Collection provides three distinct 1176 revisions, representing over 40 years of design iterations to the original 1176.
