Revive Audio MODIFIED Warm Audio WA76 FET Compressor

Revive Audio Modified: Warm Audio WA76 unit that is a new unit opened for modification

Priced just right with a full 1 year warranty!

If you already have a unit and would like to have it upgraded, see our website to pre-purchase, hear before and after audio samples and to see options for the WA76.

We are also now offering a True Bypass option on these compressor as an option that directly links the input to the output to easily check your processing and the before and after.

We put a lot of love into the mods on this one to squeeze out the maximum performance possible.

While the design is not authentic to an original our modifications will make even Professional studio owners happy!

With the modifications they sound great on Bass, vocals, room mics and more.

Pretty much anywhere you would want to put a 76, like everywhere!

These designs have a lot of shortcuts that make the unit sound fluttery when compressing with no low end response.

They also have high distortion figures over an original unit, but are often described as sounding good for the money by most users, which is where we come in.

The Results:

The service increases the headroom of the unit, widens the frequency response, lowers the noise and increases the clarity a great deal.

It also lowers the distortion figures considerably and smoothes out the compression character to be closer to the original design and will leave a smile on your face.

So The modifications:

We do a complete audio path upgrade using premium parts for lower noise and higher headroom as well as lower distortion.

All Audio caps are swapped out for better performance using Panasonic Parts to start.

Orange Drop Capacitors are used in critical coupling locations for more authenticity.

Bypassing is performed where necessary for lower noise in the line amp.

Power supply modifications are also performed for the lowest possible noise figures in the overall design and better current delivery.

All transistors are swapped out for better performance, HFE matched sets for better bandwidth, lower noise as well as lower distortion.

Authentic 1176 Knob installation on this unit as well for the most authentic sound and look possible for the WA-76




This unit has been professionally modified by our technicians and given the seal of approval to go to work at your home or in your studio.

These are wonderful sounding units with a lot of dynamic range and big bottom end with the modifications just the way it’s supposed to be:)

We are offering a full 1 year warranty on these newly modified units so rest assured!
