I love the 1176LN rev D on a lot of things. The slight fuzz, the transformers tone. It just paints that pro harmonic signature on a lot of sources... one of the best gear ever designed.
this is literally the EXACT thing i wanted them to make for the 1176 stereo units, still looking to pickup my first warm audio devices and im even more excited now. (great singing by the way)
I haven’t had the WA76 in years but my memory tells me this new batch is leagues above in terms of retaining the bottom end as well as not mushing up the signal. The stereo version may be in my studio soon. Nice demonstration.
Oh man, this is freaking exciting!! Bad part is that I love both the bluey and the blacky 😅. Blue first most likely for me. That is a very good price too. ❤
I use my hairball bluestripe usually on vox, as it seems to add general intelligibility for consonants (I notice this as a general trait of it even at conservative settings, long before the grit or furriness than comes along when I hit it harder). But my Audioscape Rev F is also really cool for vox - it doesn’t do the intelligibility thing as much, nor can it get the same type of aggression…but it seems to have some kind low-mid bump where it makes things sound more robust and depth-y, and it’s like it has really good built in de-easing; it’s really good at amping up perceived loudness w/o increasing volume. I’ve got a BLA 17 as well, but honestly I don’t find it as good as the other 2, even with its bells & whistles, and have long been thinking of selling it. Been thinking about getting one of those Stam ones w/tube option, but honestly a 2-ch. bluestripe or Rev D would be super sweet…I hardly use my Art VLAii also, could make some space there. Esp w/wet dry and variable HPF, those stereo units could be insanely versatile…
They do sound great. The only knock I have heard about Warm Audio products (from a very good tech) was that they were essentially un-repairable because the pc boards and traces within were too thin and fragile to handle being re-soldered. This was about 10 yrs ago and I wonder if they have addressed this issue?
Hey! I've owned Warm Audio gear for awhile now and in the last 2 years I've had to get my WA87 repaired as well as my TB12. Warm was super responsive and repaired both items quickly and it was no problem. Their pricing was super fair too since both items were out of warranty. Hope this helps!
Why does the dry signal on the WA76-D2 (when you play with the wet/dry knob) come back in wider stereo then the wet? The stereo image totally changes anyway! 🤔
What's your favorite 1176?
I love my WA-76. In my opinion, it's impossible to beat at the price point.

Hairball Audio 1176 Blue Stripe
Nice! Direct comparisons to the original WA76 would be interesting to hear.

Totally agree, and thank you!

“I’m not much of a singer” 😂😂 Andrew you sound AMAZING bro
The bluestripe on vocals was really really good! I think B.L.A with there "Bluey" will get worried! Very impressive Warm Audio !!
That Bluey unit was super noisy! Yuck
They sound really nice... YO! Your vocals sound great! Definitely want to hear some Andrew Masters originals with you singing!
Really appreciate that
@@itsstudiotime Yeah agreed, great singing.
Which mic did. you use, sound great!
Ironically the wa251
Can’t wait for mine to arrive. ❤
Are the knobs stepped or detented at all?
Ive got plenty of 1176 clones but honestly, the inserts and internal power supply make the Blue Stripe worth it right there! Love the Dual 1176!
Dude! The Blue Strip sounded so good! Tempted so go get one now haha. Also, more vocals please you sound genuinely amazing!
How is this possible!!! I cannot find this online anywhere and you managed to have one... Woooww amazing 🎉😮😮😮
They are available just about everywhere!
Anything by them is amazing
Yea that blue strip on the vocals sounded great, dang. Nice video!
Agree! thanks man

Blue stripe on vocals is the move bro!
You sound great!
Appreciate it!
First time hearing your singing voice, very nice!
Appreciate it!
Yo Andrew you got pipes my man! Bro sings good!!! 🔥
haha I don't know about that, but thank you

I’d choose audio scape over warm any day
I would aswell, but not gonna lie these stereo versions are very appealing
Was going to say "who TF needs ANOTHER 1176?" until I saw the Stereo unit... I guess I do.

Nice 👌 love your setup Andrew .
Thanks!
Might grab the stereo one in the future
‘Shimmer’ by Fuel 👍👍👍
Your vocal is great.... not sure why you'd doubt yourself 🤓👍
Blue stripe sounds killer on vocals - Also, that voice. You should sing way more.
stop it haha
I wouldnt be caught dead mixing with warm stuff (at least not as good-tos) but for tracking their perfectly fine
that's such a ridiculous statement. a good mixer can get a lot of use out of these great tools
@@user-th6rh8zp3twhats the point if a plugin sounds as good or better than
Been looking for a dual comp. KM184s-RND5211-?
Acoustic guitar and drum overheads etc. I’m not rich but this fits the budget.
might also want to check out the Heritage Audio Successor. They're on sale for $1299 right now and they sound fantastic.
Nice bro! 😎
"go easy on me im not that much of a singer" *proceeds to sing with an amazing voice*
My self-esteem as a singer: *not stonks*
Yo where can we here the Fuel cover???
Shimmer?
Paid Advertising warning!
Yep it says it's a paid promotion at the start of the video
nice knobs
I don’t know about anyone else but I hate WARM Audio’s products…..it must be just me.
LOL not even 6h ago, they released a few instagram ads and you already there doing a review of it ! Not gonna lie, they look gorgeous
Early units are ALWAYS sent to a select few so there’s content for all of us to watch on launch day! Normal normal. 💯
Those castrated guitar tones are so Nashville. Brittle, thin, and may more may not be fully digital, but sounds like it.
My guitar tone ego is now destroyed
audioscape or warm?
I wanna know that too?!
It's replicas vs. lookalikes.
Audioscape
Great.... guess I'm buying 2 more compressors 😂
😂 That's funny. I couldn't stand the orange logo on the original either
Wow. That’s all I can say.
Nice bokeh.
Could it be a better option than Black Lion bluey ?
More studio how to, less product reviews.
I like gear, so i'll probably make many product videos. You don't have to click on videos you don't want to watch.
