The Origin Effects Cali76 FET Compressor brings legendary studio compression to your pedalboard, inspired by the iconic Urei® 1176® studio compressor that has shaped countless classic recordings since the 1960s. Using uncompromising all-analogue FET circuitry, the Cali76 delivers ultra-fast, musical compression with the clarity, punch, and responsiveness that have made the 1176 a studio staple for decades. The latest evolution in the Cali76 lineup, this version features a full set of studio-style controls that allow players to precisely shape their compression response. From subtle dynamic control and sustain to punchy, aggressive compression, the Cali76 adapts easily to any playing style or genre. A dedicated DRY control enables parallel compression, letting you blend your unaffected signal with the compressed tone for enhanced clarity and natural dynamics. An improved sidechain circuit ensures smooth, musical response while closely matching the behaviour of Origin Effects’ highly regarded “large format” Cali76 compressor that established the brand’s reputation in 2012. The pedal also features a 10-LED gain reduction meter, giving you clear visual feedback on how much compression is being applied, just like a professional studio unit. Internally increased voltage provides massive headroom, allowing the Cali76 to handle hot signals while maintaining pristine clarity and articulation. Housed in a pedalboard-friendly enclosure, the Cali76 FET Compressor represents over a decade of Origin Effects expertise in designing premium compressor pedals. It delivers studio-quality compression, dynamic control, and exceptional tone for players who demand the very best from their pedalboard.
