Universal Audio 175B™ and 176™ Tube Compressor Collection

Experience the legendary sound of the Universal Audio 175B and 176 compressors, now compatible with any soundcard on both Mac and PC. Originally introduced in the early 1960s, these compressors were designed specifically for studio recording and mixing, and are celebrated for their rich tube gain reduction character, fast attack, and remarkable sonic flexibility.

With only around 1,000 units produced, vintage 175B and 176 compressors command prices exceeding $5,000 on the vintage market, making them a prized possession in some of the world's most prestigious studios. Now, you can harness the authentic sound of these iconic compressors with the only plug-in emulation that captures their essence.

A Pioneering Limiter

The UA 175B and 176 compressors revolutionized audio processing with their fast attack time and independently variable Attack and Release controls, surpassing all previous broadcast limiters. They were quickly adopted by renowned studios such as United/Western and Sunset Sound, where they continue to be used today. As all-tube predecessors to the famous 1176, these compressors have added warmth and character to countless classic recordings by artists like the Rolling Stones, Elton John, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Aretha Franklin, and Miles Davis.

Emulating a Masterpiece

Based on UA's golden units from the 1960s, the UA 175B and 176 Tube Compressor Collection plug-ins meticulously replicate Bill Putnam’s tube-based gain reduction designs, capturing the ultra-musical harmonics and rich low-frequency transformer saturation. The unique feedback compression circuit provides softer compression at lower input levels and harder, nearly brickwall limiting at higher levels, delivering the signature sound that defines these compressors.

All-Around Champ

Sonically, the 175B and 176 compressors are often compared to Fairchild compressors, but with more versatile controls, making them ideal for a variety of applications including vocals, drums, and guitars. The UA 175B and 176 Tube Compressor Collection plug-ins offer all the character and energy of the original hardware, indistinguishable in blind listening tests.

In Action

These plug-ins provide delicate control when needed, while also delivering vibrant color when pushed. They can enhance room mics or a drum bus, add definition to guitars, anchor a bass in the mix, and energize vocals. Additionally, you can bypass the compression entirely and use the 175B/176 plug-ins as a "tone box," infusing your sound with rich tube amplifier and transformer textures.
