## Description

KLARK TEKNIK 76-KT Classic FET-Style Compressor with Class-A Line Level Amplifier and MIDAS Transformers

Review: Great addition to my home studio - I got the Klark Teknik KT-76 some time ago for my personal music projects, and I’m really impressed. It’s easy to set up and use, and it gives my vocals and bass that classic punchy sound I was looking for. It also works great on percussion and powerful rock and blues-style vocals, really helping them cut through the mix. The controls feel intuitive, and I was able to dial in good results right away without spending too much time tweaking. For the price, it’s amazing value. The build quality feels solid, and it sounds way more expensive than it actually is. I’d love to buy another unit, but right now it can’t be shipped to my location — hopefully it becomes available again soon. If you have a home studio and want that classic 1176-style compression without breaking the bank, this unit is definitely worth it.
Review: Great Classic FET Compressor for amazing price - I have several 1176 in my studio and this one keeps up with the most expensive units. Download the specs on this, it's got amazing performance. I own six of these now and regularly use them in my studio - nobody knows when they hear my songs, they just sound good, very good. Good Music To You

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the difference between the klark teknik 1176-kt and the 76-kt ???**
A: I don’t think anything, they just changed the name on the new releases

**Q: Can you have all 4 ratios in at the same time like the classic ?**
A: Yes, the all-in masher works!

**Q: Can you run both xlr/ trs inputs and outputs at the same time to run to different gear? not sending single to both at the same time, just patch**
A: No, single input/single signal at a time.

**Q: Where is this made/manufactured?**
A: It's made in China. Klark Teknik is under the Behringer brand. That said, I'd say it still sounds amazing and is worth every cent.
