another classic
For the triumvirate of modeling plugins, this one is a swiss army blade of compression. Doesn't really work on mixbus or too complex busses, but can be the ticket on rear buss techniques. For spiky instruments that need a bit of distortion with the compression, it's up there with the best of the best.

absolute favorite compressor for vocals
I am one of the many ppl who have recently adopted spark, I saw a deal for the first 3 months for a dollar or something like that. I know UA has a great reputation but I had never really had a chance to try any of the plugins that they make. thanks to my subscription, I was able to play around with several of the plugins from the UA library, and there is a lot that I like, some that I love, and honestly even the ones I'm not particularly in love with are still great at what they do. that being said, olone reaally stood out. for whatever reason I just loved the 1176 compressors, and what they do you all the tracks honestly, but specifically vocals. one small feature I will say is so small but to me its just so nice to have it, there is a simple "mix" knob that for me gets such great results by simply using the "average vocal compression" preset and just dialing it back with the mix knob to taste. just that little trick is such a simple, easy, and really quite good sounding technique to just give a vocal track a smoothness that I have difficulty achieving with other plugins. 10/10 it just works. there is o e small thing to mention. when I first felt like I needed these compressors, they actually weren't available to outright purchase unless you bought some specific hardware from UA. I got love for UA but I felt like "man I want to spend my money on their software but I don't need hardware" well needless to say within a month or 2 of that unfortunate issue, sure enough the 1176 compressors are on sale now, with no requirement to purchase hardware. so the decision to do that was unbelievably appreciated, I can't express how much I wanted to buy these. thank you for all that you guys do

A must have compressor
What can you say about the UAD 1176 plug in. You can use it anywhere and everywhere, and you should. You can use it to tame things down or to add punch. It’s a real workhorse, I don’t a have single session that isn’t using a number of instances of the 1176 plug in.

Great compressor!
A really nice and fast compressor! I have not tried the hardware so I cannot compare, but it stands out from most other plug-ins I have tried. Very versatile and adds mojo!

UAD 1176 impression
I worked for years with the 1176 hardware and the plugins sound as good as the HW to me. Very cool!

Il top delle emulazioni
Se state cercando delle emulazioni fedeli all'1176 questi fanno al caso vostro. Sono impareggiabili e li stra-utilizzo. Consigliatissimi
J. Branam
very nice work UA
of all the 76 emulations i have tried (and i have tried the lot) this gives a slightly wider soundstage and is mid forward and can bring anything to the front of a mix if need be. of course it works exceptionally well for smashing in parallel also. thank you UA for going native with single perpetual licenses. keep adding more product to the list.
cheers

Combined with the LA-2A, you can't go wrong!

Every good
I love Uad
M. Leo
Love them
The new addition of a mix dial makes these even better and they were already the best.

Great plugin, does what it's supposed to do.
This is an easy-to-use, great-sounding plugin that does exactly what it's supposed to do. It's a must-have compressor, and is super versatile, as it should be. I would definitely recommend.

The GOAT
If I could only have one plug-in to use for the rest of time it's the blue stripe 1176 and it isn't even close.

Amazing sound, the best simulation of 1176's out there

On every channel
I use this as the first compressor on each channel - it adds up to fullness and loudness

The best of the best
Why did avoid UAD for so long? I guess I was using other interfaces and heard they UAD stuff would eat your processor without an external DSP chassis. Stupid mistake on my part because these emulations are incredible. They’re easy to tweak and very inspiring sonically. I have many 1176 emulations and use rack units all the time. UAD versions are the very best I’ve used.

Magnifico
E' il compressore che utilizzo di piu', non fa rimpiangere l'HW!
