Warm Audio WA76

Warm Audio's WA76 set its target high: the most iconic solid-state limiting amplifier in history. How does Warm do it? Through economies of scale, mostly. They don't cut corners on components (the WA76 employs genuine US-made Cinemag transformers), but they do order parts and build in quantity, which keeps costs down. Like the classic unit, the WA76 gives you a completely discrete signal path and the same arrangement of controls. And yes, it replicates the original's explosive performance when all the ratio buttons are pressed. Elevate your studio to the next level - with the Warm Audio WA76.

What can the WA76 do for you?

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

Top-tier performance - and a stunning value

At this amazing price, you can double your value and get two. With a pair of these in your rack, you can make that stereo piano sit proud in a thick track. Punch up your toms. Strap them across your stereo bus for some mastering magic, and juice your mix with serious slam factor.
