Universal AudioUAFX 1176 Studio Compressor Effects Pedal - Silver
1/4
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around circuit-accurate 1176LN compression modeling, the silver UAFX 1176 puts several compression behaviors on a pedalboard. Single delivers normal compression, Dual runs two modeled compressors in series, and Sustain uses parallel compression for extended sustain; an all-buttons-in setting handles extreme compression. Attack, Release, Input, Output, Ratio, and Blend give direct control over response, recovery, level, amount, and dry/compressed signal balance. Choose true or buffered bypass to suit the rig.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Pedalboards that need normal, series, parallel, or extreme compression from one compact effects pedal.
- Travel and stage rigs where the cast-aluminum enclosure is part of the required build.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Power setups unable to provide isolated, center-negative 9V DC at 250mA minimum.
