Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 66628, member: 636"] Wes Audio will release the ng78 stereo compressor in November 2025 at a price of 1,999 euros. The device features two channels of FET-based compression that operate independently or as a linked stereo unit, drawing inspiration from the classic 1178 hardware. Attack times extend to 20 milliseconds for enhanced transient control, while a new 2:1 ratio setting provides gentler dynamics processing alongside the traditional all-buttons mode. The ng78 combines analog circuitry with digital control through DAW plugin integration, enabling parameter automation and instant recall of settings. Additional features include a mix knob for parallel compression, selectable high-pass or high-shelf side-chain filtering, and adjustable harmonic distortion levels. Modern and Vintage modes replicate the sonic characteristics of original 1176 F and G revisions, with a Carnhill transformer output stage adding analog weight to processed signals. [/QUOTE]
