The analog channel strip of your dreams.
Â
Experience Universal Audio’s 70+ year analog heritage with a supercharged plug-in version of their flagship tube channel strip, the 6176. The new LA-6176 Signature Channel Strip plug-in gives you three iconic UA products in one: the 610 mic preamp, the 117 6 Limiting Amplifier, and the LA-2A Leveling Amplifier.
Â
Released in 2004, the hand-built 6176 has been the channel strip to stars including Coldplay, Adele, and Pharrell. Now you can get an entirely new UAD channel strip that puts decades of classic and modern vocal, guitar, drum, and bass sounds at the flip of a switch.
Â
Key Benefits:
Â
Plug in to the World’s Most Famous Tube Preamp
Bill Putnam’s 610 Modular Amplifier preamp was a milestone in audio history, introduced in the 1960’s and used to record everyone from the Beach Boys, Ray Charles, and Johnny Cash to Coldplay and Adele. The LA-6176 plug-in features the modern 610-B circuit, giving you even deeper EQ controls for adding rich tube sound that works on everything.
Â
Get the Legendary Punch of an 1176LN Limiter
The 6176 hardware is the first channel strip to pair the iconic 610 tube preamp with classic 1176 Limiting Amplifier. The 1176 is the compressor that defined decades of popular rock and pop music, from Led Zeppelin to Bob Marley to Beyonce. Its FET-based circuit delivers ultra fast response to guitar, bass, and drum transients making your tracks pop through the speakers.
Â
Add Smooth LA-2A Tube Compression
Borrowing from UA’s LA-610 MkII hardware channel strip, the LA-6176 plug-in packs iconic optical compression at the flip of a switch. In LA-2A mode, you’ll get the same silky compression heard on classic vocal and instrument recordings for over 60 years. Plus, you can easily toggle between the LA-2A and 1176 modes to find your perfect sound. Unison-Enabled for Realtime Recording on Apollo Interfaces
Â
With an Apollo interface and Unison technology, the LA-6176 Signature Channel Strip makes you forget you’re recording through a plug-in. You'll get all the unique impedance, gain stage sweet spots, and circuit behaviors of an original 610 tube preamp. And when you add in two legendary compressors—it puts three of UA’s most famous analog circuits on a single Unison channel.
