A Compressor with a Classic Sound
A sound with harmonics that generate a very special vintage color.
These plugins are great for music and sounds with retro effects.
V. German
A thick, fat sound!
Great compressors, thanks UAD!

The Tube version of the 1176?
I like how the 176 is sorta like if you combo a LA2A with an 1176, but with one plugin instance. Sometimes it can feel a little too "clampy" and then you back off a little, but imo it's a bit less clampy than the Fairchild or Manley tube comp plugins. I wish people were a bit more critical in their reviews, but I'm still a dumb fanboy, so I'm a be "real" and leave 4 stars, because it really has a cool 'color' to it, but it's not something I could get away with using in every scenario.

Immediately became one of my favourites.
I fell in love with this compressor because it filled the hole in my collection between ones that too bold or too soft. Don't get me wrong, this thing can be aggressive and almost invisible too. A must have, in my opinion.

I Wasn't sure about buying these...BUT
I didn't need any more compressors did I?
Turns out I did.
They're great. I love vintage stuff but if you don't have the budget, space or patience for the real thing, plugins like this one make it like we have the gear in our studios.

UA Compressors
Yep! Bags of character. Squishy and warm with genuinely valvey tone. Great on drums and vocals. Quite extreme if you want. Nice results from attack and release settings.

Nice tone and vibe
I've only had these two compressors for a short while and already I'm seeing their potential usage in my future projects. I don't like to compress distorted guitars too much in the mix but I used the 176 on a guitar bus and it gave the tracks an added lift to an already good tone and I was surprised by this!.. I think these two compressors are a nice alternative to the usual 1176 (which I love...especially the 1176AE), and they have a nice tone & retro vibe which is cool. I'm looking forward to using these more and more in the future. Thanks again Universal Audio!

Old but gold
Love them both but the 175b is my go to for drums. And bass guitars. And voices. And guitars. And…

I was real skeptical and hesitated to buy. But this one has turned out real nice and useful. Thanks!

All I can say that it's awesome with easy of use and with the right settings dialled in you have a winner with a classic sound if you are looking for a bit of tube emulation colouring to any of your tracks

It’s alright!
Used it once or twice. Can’t recall. I should spend more time learning it due to its popularity. Initial impressions were “It’s alright!”.
