The Cali76 FET Compressor is a studio-grade compressor pedal which is inspired by the world famous Urei 1176 studio compressor, heard on many of the greatest studio recordings since the 1960s.

Key Features

  • All Analogue – An all-analogue signal path.
  • Fast Compression – Ultra-fast FET compression.
  • Inspired by the Classics – 1176-inspired circuitry is used to make sure the authentic 1176 tone is delivered.
  • Dry Blend Control – Use the Dry Blend control for parallel compression.
  • Monitor your Gain on the Meter – 10-LED bar graph gain reduction meter.
  • Higher Headroom – Voltage increased internally to 24V for high headroom.
  • Ultra-high Input Impedance – Improved dynamic response matches “large format” Cali76.

The Cali76 FET Compressor uses uncompromising all-analogue circuitry to make these distinctive, ultra-fast FET compression tones available to modern guitarists and bassists.

Origin Effects

Origin Effects was founded in 2012 by Simon Keats, whose first pedal design recreated the response of a UREI 1176 studio compressor. That design became the Cali76 and set the direction for a range that combines studio-inspired compression with analogue amp recreations and drive. JustPedals listings include the RevivalDRIVE Compact, MAGMA57, DELUXE61, DCX Bass and Halcyon Gold. Origin says every pedal is hand-built and listen-tested at its factory in Buckingham, England. Its products are designed for players who want detailed control over compressor response, amp character and familiar studio tones.

Compression reduces the difference between louder and quieter parts of the signal. It can restrain peaks, lift decaying notes and make picking feel more even, but strong settings also change the attack and add audible sustain or pumping. Threshold, ratio, attack, release and blend determine when gain reduction begins, how firmly it acts and how much natural transient detail remains.

The signal is shaped by continuously varying electronic circuitry rather than being converted into a digital effect algorithm. Component choice, operating voltage and circuit tolerances influence headroom, noise, clipping texture and the small variations in response between designs.
