Any questions please ask.Klark Teknik 76-KT Classic FET-Style Compressor with MIDAS Transformers Main FeaturesClassic FET-style compressorCompletely discrete signal pathClass-A line-level output amplifierCustom-built, MIDAS input and output transformersPush button selection of compression ratios: 4:1, 8:1, 12:1, 20:1Transformer balanced inputs and outputs on Neutrik XLR connectorsAuto-ranging universal switch-mode power supply
Designed as an homage to the classic 1176LN, every effort was made to keep the 76-KT FET-Style Compressor true to the original D and E versions of the iconic signal processor. At the same time, Klark Teknik modernised the completely discrete signal path using hand-selected components and custom-engineered MIDAS input and output transformers for the ultimate in pristine sonic performance.
Sublimely Easy to Operate
The compression ratio is selected by pushing any, or all, of the Ratio buttons located to the left of VU meter. Ratios available are: 4:1 for moderate compression, 8:1 for severe compression, 12:1 ratio for mild limiting, and 20:1 for hard limiting. Using the ‘All-Button’ mode can be especially effective when applied to drums, bass, guitar, and room mics or for more aggressive ‘in your face’ vocals.
Attack & Release
76-KT’s Attack knob adjusts the amount of time it takes the compressor to respond to audio that exceeds the threshold. The response time is slower at the fully counterclockwise position and faster when turned clockwise. The Release knob adjusts how long the compressor remains engaged after the incoming audio falls below the threshold. The response time is also slower at the fully counterclockwise position and faster when adjusted clockwise.
Vintage Style VU Meter
In keeping with the design of the original processor, the 76-KT features an illuminated, vintage-style VU meter for visual confirmation of gain reduction (GR) and output levels. A meter reading of 0 corresponds to an output level of +4, +6 or +8 dBm, depending on which button is engaged.
Auto-Ranging Universal Switch-Mode Power Supply
76-KT features a universal power supply, which is auto-voltage sensing for use on a worldwide basis.
