NG76
Next generation 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.

AIN FEATURES
ng76 fully analog FET compressor with digital recall.

100% analog FET compressor with 24dBu of headroom
2 x mono-channel devices can be linked together through dedicated software
Classic lightning speed compression style based on WesAudio Beta76 design
Flexible DAW/Live plug-in control for instant recall
MIX knob for parallel compression
Carnhill Transformers (input and output)
Saturation mode – Special saturation / clipping mode based FET circuit
All ratio combinations including ALL BUTTON MODE!
Modern and Vintage modes to support two 1176 revisions (F & G)
Two independent side chain EQ circuits
THD – total harmonic distortion with LOW and HIGH settings based on the FET circuit

ANALOG SOUND, DIGITAL CONTROL
True ANALOG sound with extremely convenient control!

100% analog FET compressor
ng76 is a 100% analog processing unit with 24dBu of headroom
Regardless of its full digital control, the analog signal path provides lightning speed compression sound we all know from countless records.

True stereo operation
2 x ng76 mono compressors can be linked via dedicated software
It allows to link compression detectors (with special cables included with stereo matched pairs) for true stereo compression,
Or dual mono compression with all parameters linked.
Just change the setting on one unit, and it will be reflected on its matched twin!
MIX knob for parallel compression
We all know FET style compression to be lightning fast, punchy and aggressive.
Mix knob for parallel compression allows us to dial in the amount of this sonic flavor we want!
Mix knob also allows saturation mode to be mixed in.
THD – total harmonic distortion
Total harmonic distortion button which allows You to dial in additional sonic content in Low or High settings.
This design is fully based on the FET circuit and allows us to choose how saturated Your compression becomes.
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!



Selectable Input stage
Modern and Vintage modes to support two 1176 revisions (F & G).

Vintage – transformer balanced input,
Modern – Electronically balanced input.



Side Chain EQ sections
Sophisticated side chain circuit EQ with two independent sections:

HPF 60 hz / 90 Hz / 150 Hz – to maintain low end information while compressing,
High Shelf of 2kHz / 5kHz, 10kHz – to tame high frequencies by emphasizing high/hid mids content.
Hardware A/B buttons to compare two independent settings
Even using ng76as 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!
