The latest in a long lineage of Cali76 compressors, the Cali76 Bass Compressor features a full set of studio-style controls, a DRY knob for parallel compression and an improved sidechain that matches the response of the sought-after “large format” Cali76.

The Cali76 Bass Compressor also features an HPF control, which improves low-end clarity and preserves natural dynamics on the lower strings.

With a 10-LED gain reduction meter, a pedalboard-friendly enclosure and massive headroom thanks to internally increased voltage, the Cali76 FET Compressor and Cali76 Bass Compressor mark the culmination of over a decade of experience making the world’s finest compressor pedals.

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.

Compressor Pedals

Compressor pedals reduce dynamic range by turning louder peaks down and raising or sustaining the average level. Attack and release determine whether the pick transient remains sharp or is softened; ratio, threshold, blend and output gain decide whether the result is discreet control or an obvious effect. Compression can even out clean picking, add sustain before an overdrive, tighten bass or provide a steady vocal signal, but it can also raise noise and reduce touch contrast. Check the controls and metering, then place the pedal where its gain structure makes sense for the rest of the chain.

Analogue

Uses continuous analogue circuitry for some or all of the audio path, so clipping, filtering or modulation arises from physical components rather than sampled algorithms. Check the exact signal path.

Bass

Designed or voiced to retain low-frequency information and headroom with bass guitar or other low-register sources. Controls may centre on clean blend, low-end EQ, compression or drive.
