Main Features:
1. 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.
2. True stereo operation: 2 x ng76 mono compressors can be linked via dedicated
software. It allows linking compression detectors (with special cables included with
stereo matched pairs) for true stereo compression, or dual mono compression with all
parameters linked.
3. MIX knob for parallel compression – We all know FET style compression to be lightning
fast, punchy, and aggressive. The mix knob for parallel compression allows us to dial in
the amount of this sonic flavor we want!
4. 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.
5. 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!
6. 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!
7. Selectable Input stage – Modern and Vintage modes to support two 1176 revisions (F &
G):
a. Vintage – transformer balanced input,
b. Modern – Electronically balanced input.
8. Side Chain EQ sections – Sophisticated side chain circuit EQ with two independent
sections:
a. HPF 60 hz / 90 Hz / 150 Hz – to maintain low end information while compressing,
b. High Shelf of 2kHz / 5kHz, 10kHz – to tame high frequencies by emphasizing
high/hid mids content.
9. Hardware A/B buttons to compare two independent settings.
a. Even using ng76 as a pure analog signal processor you can easily switch
between two parallel settings with the magic of a simple button.
10. USB or Ethernet Connectivity
11. Gain reduction, input and output metering – ng76 is armed with classic Vintage Gain
Reduction meter we all recognize and know. To provide a high level of usability, it also
visualizes very precise input and output levels at the same time!
12. Analog Automation – Just draw automation lines in your DAW and your analog device
will follow! And remember, you can use five touch sensitive encoders to record
automation TO your DAW!
13. TOTAL Recall and plug-in control.
