Next door are the customisable VU meters. Next to these are the Ratio controls which, in a pleasing development, can now be 'hot-rodded' to produce the 'All Button' effect known as 'British mode', whereby all Ratios are enabled simultaneously for more distorted, crunchy results. The Rev A 'BlueStripe' represents Putnam's original, the Rev E 'Blackface' emulates the early '70s 'Low Noise' revision overseen by Brad Plunkett, while the 1176AE offers the sound of the 40th 'Anniversary Edition' which provides unique 2:1 Ratio and 10mS 'Super-Slow' Attack Mode.Īll three versions offer broadly the same control sets with prominent Input and Output dials to the left, followed by Attack and Release knobs which, in classic 1176 fashion, work the 'wrong way'. Like plenty of other classic hardware boxes, the 1176 underwent numerous revisions and the most pleasing aspect of the new V6.2 release is that the 1176 plug-in has now become a collection of, arguably, the most coveted three models.
The reason this is such a personal product for UAD is that the original 1176 hardware, first produced in 1967, was designed by UA's own Bill Putnam.
