Warm Audio WA 76

A great recreation of a classic

Warm Audio's WA76 has set its sights high: the most iconic solid-state limiting amplifier in history. How does Warm do that? Mainly through economies of scale. They don't skimp on components (the WA76 uses genuine American Cinemag transformers), but they order parts and build in bulk, which keeps costs down. Like the original classic unit, the WA76 offers a completely discrete signal path and the same layout of controls. And yes, it replicates the explosive performance of the original when all ratio buttons are pressed. Take your studio to the next level with the Warm Audio WA76.

Comp to see

Every studio needs a good compressor, and the Warm Audio WA76 is designed after the mother of all limiters. With its lightning-fast response time and pristine, completely discrete signal path, the WA76 is your go-to device for everything from subtle, transparent dynamics control to full limiting. It's great for bass, kick drum, snare, vocals - you name it. It's a must-have for punchy parallel processing on drums, and if you have two, the possibilities become even greater.

Value for money

Klundert Music is all about performance and value, and that's what the WA76 offers you. Think for a moment what another high-quality outboard compressor would normally cost you, for this great price you can double your value and get two. With a pair of these in your rack, you can let that stereo piano sit proudly in a thick track, boost your drums, stretch a stereo pair over your stereo bus for some mastering magic and give your mix a serious slam factor.
