Universal Audio 1176 Compressor Pedal with Three Iconic Setup and Simple Attack and Release Controls

Introduced in 1967, the Universal Audio 1176 Compressor Pedal remains the king of audio limiting, heard on more classic records than any other compressor. Built on the powerful UAFX engine, the 1176 Studio Compressor delivers the same punchy, expressive tones of the world-renowned hardware, now in a compact stompbox.
Get Three World-Famous Sounds in a Single Pedal
From the subtle squeeze of a single 1176 to the endless sustain of two units in parallel à la Lowell George or the compressed crunch of Led Zeppelin IV, you can get the same iconic tones and effects heard on thousands of classic records with a trio of legendary 1176 setups.
Punch up and Elevate your Clean Tones
From slithery ’70s slide to chicking picking and funk, the 1176 Studio Compressor gives you an iconic squeeze for any genre. With simple Attack and Release controls, plus infinite Ratio settings and the infamous ‘all buttons in’ for smashed sounds, you’ll get classic tones and tons more.
Pack Classic Compression from Stage to Studio
Built for decades of dependable performance on stage and in the studio, the 1176 Studio Compressor gives you switchable true or buffered bypass and a parallel compression mode in a compact pedalboard-friendly enclosure - so you can elevate your effects chain in a snap.
