Finally, someone who will show a compressor at its extreme settings. I get so frustrated with compressor reviews because they never show what the thing will actually produce. Like a broken record each one of them that reviews it is always saying these words. “ I just like a little compression’ and then they get rid of anything you could possibly hear by bringing in the parallel dry signal all day long. Those make for terrible reviews. This man had the intelligence to do it right to actually show what it would do. Good job.👍
thank you for the complete review. It added to your tone but unfair to the compressor your so good your tone didnt change much. Your tone sounds amazing whatever your playing.
Very, very nice piece to demo this. Really excellent. Finally I hear what this pedal is really capable of. It can be set to have a bit of 1176 action, the signature fast, level dependent release which was impossible to hear on the Wampler videos. I agree with you re blend. Contrary to so much ill-informed advice, we owners of the actual UREI 1176 do not waste our time with parallel compression. Ditto LA-2A, LA-3, LA-4, etc… you get the picture. If you’ve got the best chocolate, diluting it with water is pointless. All the UREI, dbx, Neve, API, SSL compressors I use have the perfect set of controls to get the best out of them. I wish Mr. Wampler himself could realize the harm done to sales by his guitar playing on his own videos. I’ve come close to offering a constructive comment to him directly but can’t imagine anything I’m willing to say would sway him an inch.
Wampler says since the compressor is often (always?) added later in the signal chain in the studio he added the tone and blend control because those would be in play ahead of the compressor anyway as part of the signal chain. Great demo of how it works. A lot of times because compression is a "subtle" effect the demos do it no good. You made it really easy to hear and demonstrated the effect exceptionally.
I think for the most part studio compression or limiting is applied in post but that being said, some tracking engineers will print with compression on guitars and bass and even overhead mics on drums. Thanks for chiming in and for the kind words.
@@ShawnTubbsBut even then it's after the mic/mic preamp/console/console "tone controls"/etc... I don't think the 1176 has an instrument input, for example. Not sure as I've never used an actual vintage one. 😁
Great breakdown. Had been eyeing UA's 1176 mini pedal but the extra blend and tone controls on the EGO 76 add a lot of usability. And the Ego is a bit cheaper, to boot. This is the first vid of yours I've watched, instantly subbed when done. 2 thumbs up for your detailed and "easy listening" approach. 'LOVED your opening jam. Some of the sounds you dialed in during the demo were so SD "Hey 19" - very cool.
COMPRESSURE would be a good pedal name... Tone control and mix are great features to any compressor circuit. I like how this sounds and how much this does with such a small footprint.
Thank you for your very good demo. That was a catchy tune! is it a part of a whole song? -if so I would very much like to know where I can listen to the song?
Thanks very much!! I was using my Friedman DS 40 for this one. In general, I'll use my Suhr Bella or my Friedman DS when I demo pedals. I've got scads of amps that I love and my Revv D40 is at the top of the list, but I try to stick with what I've been using for years on this channel for the sake of consistency.
Which BRAND of Guitar WALL HANGER are you Using...? I'm looking to get one or two 5 Guitar Unit Size, Soon... , but haven't made up my mind yet..? And, are they Secured Directly into the Studs in the Wall... ? I am also interested in getting this compressor. Thanks!!
I always wondered why they don't up the voltage with compressors....I would thing 18 volt or even 24 volt would make it better.....and most power bricks can handle that......
Seems like there would be a lot of variables to consider. If you place components that run 18-24 volts, the cost to build will be higher for the top-shelf components. It's an interesting parameter to consider. Thanks for watching and for chiming in!

Shawn. Everything you touch simply turns to Gold.
That is truth.
Well, you're very kind indeed, but if that were true, all of my guitars would be gold tops!! I am a sucker for a gold top. Thanks so much again.
Pedal arrived today. Tried several of your setting. Very useful pedal! Thanks Shawn!!
I like how you are so relaxed in how you deliver. I subbed for that reason. You are very easy to watch and enjoy.
Thanks very much!

The most transparent compressor I've ever heard... and I've heard & played A LOT.
Thank you Shawn for this beautiful demo. The sound is beautiful! Your Tyler is simply superb!
Thanks very much! I really love that Tyler and it's great to have it back.
Shawn, another stellar demo as well as inspiring ideas.
Thanks very much!
Such a good 70s vibe intro! You rock!

Very nice playing and demos! :)
Thanks so much!
Awesome demo Shawn!
Thanks so much!!
Awesome Tune And Tones, Subscribed.
Thanks so much for the support!

Love the Suhr guitar. On my list
They build good stuff!
Hey Shawn - Great looking (and sounding) Hamer Newport 12!!! Don't see many of those around these days!

Had the UA 1176, sold it. Just not what I expected. This Wampler pedal has so much more. As you pointed out better price. Shawn is a master...
A nice sticky sound. I like it :) Regards Shawn!
Beautiful composition on this one, Oil of Bro-lay
Haha, thanks!
Good stuff Thanks..
Nice tune
COMPRESSURE would be a good pedal name...
Tone control and mix are great features to any compressor circuit. I like how this sounds and how much this does with such a small footprint.
Thanks for chiming in John!
That would make a great soundtrack for a Western!!
That's what I was going for!! Thanks so much!
New T Shirt. "Not kinda, Lets do it!"
Debating this or the Origin Effects Cali76 at twice the price. 😬 Great vid Shawn.
Great stuff Shawn! You could play a guitar made out of cardboard and it would still sound beautiful.
You're very kind.
Great demo! How does the tone of this compare to the regular Wampler Ego?
I''ve been way too happy with my Ego mini, that I'm afraid to finish the video
Would love to A/B this with my Origin Cali76-TX big box.
Thank you for your very good demo. That was a catchy tune! is it a part of a whole song? -if so I would very much like to know where I can listen to the song?
Thanks! That's a short piece written just for the Wampler.
Gosh Darnnit Shawn! You have such tone in your paws! Question… which amp were you playing through for this? Was it the D40? Thanks Bro!
Thanks very much!!

I'm using String Swing. I do have them mounted into studs.
@@ShawnTubbs Thanks, that's one I have been looking at.
Nice tones! Great playing! Unrelated but what are a couple of your favourite Huff solos?
Thanks! "Meet Me Half Way" Loggins and "See You In My Dreams" Giant. He's composed so many great solos.
Anyone know how noisy it is?
I always wondered why they don't up the voltage with compressors....I would thing 18 volt or even 24 volt would make it better.....and most power bricks can handle that......

Wampler..........I think that ship has sailed.
Compressors in general or 1176 style?
Hate to say it, but the brand in general.
Is this better before or after drives?
I think it would work equally well. It will of course respond differently to transients.
Enough of that nonsense....WHAT nonsense. I get more from 5 minutes of listening to you and guys like Pete Thorn and Brett Kingman than many others.
Thanks very much!
Great demo Shawn!
Thanks very much!
