The parent company of the soda came up with a brilliant strategy – let’s make people aware of this energy dip and sell them a sugary soda to pick them up at those exact intervals. Pepper soft drink fit into this? There was a research study in the 1920s that found that people regularly lost energy during the day at 10AM, 2PM and 4PM. This caused some confusion back then, and it still does today. In other words, the fastest attack was all the way to the right, and the slowest release all the way to the left. One of the quirks of the unit is that the attack and release controls were set backwards from what became the standard. It also marked the transition between tube and solid state, as at time of its introduction, it was the first true peak limiter with all solid-state circuitry.
The reason why it’s become one of the most emulated processors both in hardware and software really starts with its sound The unit featured Class A amplifiers, input and output transformers, fast attack and release times, and different compression ratios and modes that made it far more versatile than any other compressor/limiter on the market at the time. First a little about the hardware version of the Universal Audio 1176.
