Description

The Pedal76 accurately reproduces one of the fastest and most powerful studio compressors of all time known for ultra-responsive dynamic control with rich analog tone. Using premium and custom components spec’d to duplicate the professional performance and tone of studio units, Pedal76 achieves authentic 76-style FET compression. Added grit from the FET, the rich character of the transformer, and critical gig-ready controls make Pedal76 an ideal choice for recreating timeless studio sound on stage. Pedal76 recreates the legendary tone & control of the vintage 76-style compression used in studios by artists like Jack White, John Mayer, Foo Fighters, Van Halen, Led Zeppelin and many more.

Key Features

Premium Components & Build From 76-Style Compression Experts – Pedal76 uses premium and custom components to achieve authentic 76-style FET compression. The custom CineMag transformer is spec’d to duplicate the professional performance and tone of studio units in a pedalboard-friendly format. Premium capacitors, resistors, and transistors round out a circuit that cuts no corners in delivering an authentic studio experience on stage.
Added Features Optimized For Live Performance – Pedal76 features an external switch for true and buffered bypass operation, ensuring the compressor plays nice in your rig. Switches for input sensitivity, ground/lift, pad engagement and high/low gain modes (both for DI operation) provide added utility at gigs or in the studio. The separate balanced (DI) out also sends proper signal to the mixer or live recording rig, with the high gain mode adding grit and rich transformer tone.
Hand-Tested In Austin, TX– Like all Warm Audio gear, the Pedal76 is meticulously hand-tested and inspected by trained technicians with a passion for making music in Austin, TX USA.

Classic Studio Compression Recreated For The Stage

Like the original 76-style FET studio compressor that has been used on countless guitar, bass & keyboard recordings, Pedal76 controls dynamics without squashing character. Added harmonic depth from the FET circuit and rich tone preservation from the custom transformer blend perfectly to recreate the ultimate compressor for guitar and bass players who demand pristine studio sound on stage.

Critical Studio Compressor Controls

Like studio compressors, Pedal76 has Attack & Release, Ratio, and Input controls, critical for taming unwanted changes in volume on stage. Attack and release govern when the compression acts. Ratio determines the “strength” of compression against the raw signal. Input determines how much raw signal to feed into the compression circuit, and output acts as a makeup gain/master volume to make sure Pedal76 plays nice with your rig, or provides additional boost as needed.

A History Of Building Premium 76-Style Compressors

Warm Audio has been building a premium 76-style studio compressor, the WA76, for over 10 years. Having shipped over 20,000 studio units worldwide, Warm Audio brings expertise in building this circuit and knowing what drives the sought-after tone of the most prized vintage 76-style compressors. Just like in the renowned studio WA76, Warm Audio includes custom CineMag transformers and premium components to deliver studio compression on your pedalboard.

Boost

A boost pedal does one simple thing brilliantly — it makes your signal louder, stronger, and more alive. Whether you’re pushing a valve amp into natural breakup, lifting a solo above the band, or adding a touch more presence to your core tone, a clean boost gives you extra headroom without changing your character.

Use it at the front of your chain to drive other pedals harder, or after your gain stages to raise volume without adding distortion. Subtle or powerful, transparent or slightly coloured, a boost is one of the most useful tools on any pedalboard — small box, big difference.

Compressor

A compressor pedal evens out your dynamics, smoothing peaks and lifting quieter notes so everything feels tighter and more controlled. It adds sustain, clarity, and balance — making clean chords ring longer, country licks snap with precision, and funk rhythms pop with consistency. Subtle or pronounced, compression shapes the feel of your playing as much as the sound.

Use it at the front of your chain to tighten your core tone, add sustain to leads, or keep complex passages sitting neatly in the mix. From gentle polish to unmistakable squash, a compressor is one of those foundational tools that quietly makes everything sound more professional and dialled in.

DI

A DI pedal (Direct Injection) lets you send your signal straight to a mixing desk or audio interface with clarity and confidence. It converts your instrument’s output into a balanced signal, reducing noise and allowing for longer cable runs without losing quality. Whether you’re playing live or recording, a good DI keeps your tone clean, controlled, and stage-ready.

Use a DI to go direct at a gig, split your signal between amp and PA, or capture a pure track in the studio. It’s a practical, dependable tool that ensures what leaves your pedalboard arrives exactly as intended — solid, noise-free, and ready for the mix.

New

This is brand new, fresh in, and a UK warranty is included. New Gear always comes from trusted UK music retailers.

used

Used pedals bring character, value, and often a bit of history to your board. Whether it’s a well-loved classic or a recent release looking for its next home, a used pedal offers the same core tone at a more accessible price. Fully tested and described clearly, it’s a chance to grab great gear without paying brand-new money.

Go used to explore different sounds, track down discontinued favourites, or build your setup more affordably. Sometimes a pedal with a few marks on the casing still delivers flawless tone — and might even have a story or two behind it.

Volume

Volume pedals control the output level of a guitar signal using a foot-operated treadle. They allow smooth volume swells, dynamic control during playing, and easy muting between songs. Volume pedals can be placed at different points in the signal chain to either control overall loudness or adjust gain and drive behaviour when positioned before distortion or overdrive pedals.
