Relab 176

Accurately modeled from the entire audio circuit of a vintage 1960s 176-style compressor: every tube, transformer, timing network, and power supply interaction is re-created using a real time circuit solver. This preserves the tone, timing, and dynamic behavior of the original hardware.

• Hardware-Accurate from Input to Output
  The Relab 176 reproduces everything: the tone, timing, and dynamic behavior of the hardware. Every tube stage, transformer, and timing network responds as it does in the original.

• Compression That Adapts to the Music
  Fixed-threshold, variable-gain design where ratio, drive, and source material interact to shape timing, curve, and harmonics.

• Instant Control Over Tone and Transients
  Switchable interstage transformer, asymmetry detection, and calibration trims allow quick changes to character and transient handling.

Put the 176’s tone, timing, and control into your next mix – and hear it for yourself.
