UAD 1176 Compressor Comparison (ALL Five Versions!)

This video explains the key functional and characteristic differences between each of the five versions of Universal Audio's 1176 Compressor plugins: Revision A, Revision E, 1176AE, 1176LN Legacy & 1176SE Legacy. We take an in depth look at which version you'll want to use in certain scenarios, like when you want more harmonic distortion or as clean of a sound as possible, and also when you may want to conserve DSP and CPU. We also perform a listening test on a set of vocals, swapping through each revision so you can see and hear for yourself the difference in compression characteristics. Let us know in the comment section which style of compression sounds best to you! (Just an FYI, keep in mind the differences you may be hearing probably aren't 100% accurate after going through Mac Screenshot compression and then Youtube compression!)
