Product Description
The Purple Audio MC76 is the rare, older version of their FET compressor, later replaced by the MC77 model.Many consider this the finest product designed by Purple. The electronics of the MC76 are modeled after the 1176LN (black-face revision E) except Purple Audio has gone the extra step to include a stereo link circuit. Like the 1176, the MC76 is a mono Field Effect Transistor (FET) peak-limiting amplifier. Also like the 1176, the MC76 uses the FET-based circuit to create a warmth that's hard to believe isn't tube-based. The MC76 even looks identical to the 1176 except for the bright purple color.
