Emulation name: STELLAR 2/ US CLASSIC SOLID STATE 2
Hardware modeled: UREI MODEL 1176LN* mono limiting amplifier (US)
Based on a UREI MODEL 1176LN* mono limiting amplifier (US) serial # 11854 (Silver face) All controls – Ratio has four settings with the fifth being all buttons on the front panel pressed Every serious recording studio has at least one of these mono units in its rack as a standard. It is useful on almost anything and there is something very pleasing to the ear about how it controls dynamics. Even though they operate on the FET principle, they possess wonderfully 'warming' properties. The Urei has a warm and gently overdriven character.
