CLA-76 Compressor / Limiter

The CLA-76 Compressor / Limiter is a FET-style dynamics processor modeled after two hand-picked hardware units, “Bluey” and “Blacky,” from Chris Lord-Alge’s personal collection. It captures the ultra-fast response and tube-like distortion that give FET compressors their tight, aggressive character, making it ideal for drum buses, vocals, and anything that needs attitude. Attack and release times track drum dynamics naturally, while the exclusive ALL ratio mode delivers an explosive compression sound. Modeled preamp distortion adds extra edge, and the leveling-amp design keeps vocal control consistent. A mix control enables easy parallel compression, and trim allows quick level adjustment. Zero latency means it works for both studio and live use. Presets from the Grammy-winning mixer are included. It suits hobby producers in FL Studio, Ableton, or Logic who want bold, punchy dynamics without fuss.
