Overview

Level up your mixes

We ran hundreds of hours of audio through the original hardware, then trained a neural network to replicate it. Every non-linearity and subtle distortion captured.

Fast, even control on a lead vocal at 4:1

Neural network engine

A new way to model hardware

Most emulations rebuild the circuit from equations. NN76 uses a neural network that learned the real unit by listening to it, so the character comes straight from the hardware.

Metering

See exactly what it's doing

Input, output and gain reduction meters with RMS, clipping and peak hold.

Mix control

Parallel compression built in

Squash it hard, then use the mix knob to blend in the dry signal. You get the weight of heavy compression and keep the punch of the original.

Presets

Save it, recall it

A preset browser and A B C D compare banks for fast decisions.

Auto gain

Take out the guesswork

Louder always sounds better. Auto gain keeps the output level matched to the input, so bypassing gives you a fair comparison.
