"This is a very fast attack" when you get home and your wife is already nagging you

I learned it too late LOL. appreciate you

Jerry you've taught me that the manual is always the best before the general knowledge i got

Theo Von is truly a man of many talents

This may be the first time I've actually learned something useful from a youtube short

This is the main reason for parallel processing with this device. Good on you for posting this.

Just understand it's an aggressive compressor mainly used by professionals for many years to tame transients. That's why you use your ears like the pros

Damn I knew 1176 has a fast attack, but I would have never guessed how much. That's super interesting

No wonder I've always liked the sound of a slow or slow medium attack on vocals with this comp

Quality information and straight to the point. Keep it up bandito

That’s a gem I didn’t know that

Lesson here is RTFM. Thanks for this video, you're going to save a lot of frustration for a lot of people 👍

Thank you for this for real.

Never knew about the figures. Thanks for dropping this gem

Thank you so much. So many are Confused about this because most other compressor plugins from other companies confused a lot

Wow. I had no idea for real. That’s insane

That explains a lot about it's popularity. Nice one. :)

Thank you for this for real. Finally a clear video

Nice.

Thanks for sharing this!

You wouldn’t even know how much this video is needed 😂😂

This is dope info i appreciate it

Instructive thanks !

my fav comp

Thank alot for this tip bro

This is what makes it ideal for rap

Thanks! Make it so we can hear it in the next vid!

1176 greatest of all times

Great info.

Thanks so much for this

U are the greatest😊

Thank you 🎉

100th time I've son a video on this. This can't be fulfilling bro.

Thanks for this

I owned a real Tube-Tech CL-IB. After years of magical service, I had to sell it. A long story!

very true thank you

😮 didn't know! Thanks

I JUST learned this a few weeks ago.... Had to go back and adjust each of my tracks 🤦

Good to know!! :-) Thank you!

What? I have to subscribe right away.. good information I know this today been using it wrong

Damn, Thanks!!!

Thank you.

thank you sir i did not kno this!!!

Although I knew this and it may be with it says on the website but from my experience with the CLA specifically not all the other clones I found it to be the opposite despite the history of the knobs being backwards I think a test would be best with the Waves CLA 76

that’s wild

wow the amount of tracks ive used this wrong on 😅😅😅

I did know that the A/R values where reversed, but WHAT I had no idea the attack length on an 1176 was THAT short? But that would make sense seeing how so many engineers treat the 1176 like a limiter more than a compressor. Super fast attack times are of course ideal when taming transients in a vocal and such

Thanks man 👍🏾

How did I not know this earlier

Yuuup. It’s what took me so long to start using one. Never sounded right.

The attack knob fastest setting is to the right.

Thank dude

I love 1176

Wow... i didnt know that

bruh this whole fucking time i been using it wrong no wonder my mixes been a lil harder to mix😂 whole time it was backwards lol

Thanks

😊😊

So how does it make it better being super fast

This only waves or all plugins of this model compressor?

Thank you! -=80)

I have no idea what the hell any of this means but I'm glad your music has a good offensive stat

never knew.

Wow

It’s actually audible. Oh my heavens to Betsy. If you can’t hear attack and release enough to know you need to stop.

So this means that this compressor doesn't let the transients through? Cuz 1-millisecond-sound must look like something like just a microclick. I'm a little bit confused.

YUP

So how would you use it differently compared to a regular compressor?

I always though that it felt off. Now I know why. lol

When would you even use that slow of an attack? Maybe to level off transients? Feels like you might as well set it to instant.

Yep, that’s what it sounds like, CLA-76’ attack is slower than it should be.

"i'm fast as fk boy"

newbie here, would this be useful on percussive elements and stuff with very sharp and quick transients?

So... whats the sifferwnce between the fastest and slowest attack time? Do you hear that difference? Fastest is virtually instant and the skowest is the equivalent of the fastest on any ither conpresssor

❤❤

Some manufacturers make those knobs backwards to make it more “normal.”

I got a question then. Since the attach is always very quick in comparison to others, is it better to use other compressors on the kick or snare for example since they have a slower attack?

How make the right sec on vocals

it is still worth for a mastering chain or better a vari-mu type?

Does anybody kno a good setting for rap vocals im still learning🥴

voila, the manual is the secret. ;)

Which is this mic and your interface? I guess neumann and.?

Holy shit my guy 😅

omg

that's why my vocals sound awful when I used it. I know I'm doing it wrong 😭

!!!!!!‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

does it work the same way also on Slate Digital’s VMR with all the colors of compressor (black one, blue one also)?

Didn’t know

I never knew that. Hm. So this is really only a fast attack compressor.

Could you do a video on how to decide how much low end should come off of a vocal. Everyone seems to have different opinions or just cuts at 80-100 khz. I feel like there’s some quality tone in that range and I hate having to cut it all out

Or… as sound engineers, we could use our EARS and instantly realise the attack knob was orientated that way because we would HEAR what the compressor is doing to our transients? No?? I’ve never understood how people don’t figure this out instantly - unless of course they aren’t LISTENING, and are just twisting knobs for the sake of it just so they can say “look everyone, I used a vintage compressor - doesn’t my tracks sound good!” No… no it doesn’t sound good - because you literally haven’t listened to the affect of the compressor and have just dialled in what the internet told you to. Anyone who needed the information in this video is clearly not opening their ears to hear what their settings are doing to their signal.

finally someone is talking about that. Producers need to study more their own craft lol

Except if you gotta Bluey lol! The attack is reversed!

But why such small resolution, like who tf can tell a difference from 1ms to 50 microsec?

Where's the difference to just clipping? Your ear doesn't notice a few µs, does it?

That’s a Titan Attack… 😊

00:45

So what are you guys using this 1176 comp for ? More for kicks ?

i might be dumb but... what's the difference between limiter and compressor?

Can someone explain the context? And what software this is? What it's used for?

I feel like the 1176 overrated however it can be used to great effect but for my vocals it has this effect where it adds color to it in a weird way idk
