Attack
Adjusts reaction time of the compressor after the signal crosses the threshold. Unlike most
compressors, you rotate this control clockwise for faster attack (as with the original hardware).
Tip: 1176 attack times are much faster than most compressor/limiters.
Release
Adjusts how long it takes for the signal to return to normal after compression. Unlike most
compressors, you rotate this control clockwise for faster release (as with the original
hardware).
Tip: Set Attack and Release fully clockwise for extra harmonics and distortion. This is especially
effective on bass.
Ratio
Adjusts the character and amount of compression applied to the signal. Higher compression
ratios sound more compressed and squished.
Compression ratio Description
OFF The signal is colored by the 1176 circuitry, but no compression is
applied. Input level increases gain and harmonics.
4:1, 8:1, 12:1, 20:1 The selected compression ratio is applied. The higher the ratio, the
more compressed and squished the signal sounds.
ALL Special “all buttons in” compression mode, with heavy compression
and unique character.
