WesAudio Beta76 (B-Ware)
- Proven electronic circuit – uses the same circuit design as the previous compressor version
- Carnhill input transformer – provides two distinct sound characters for versatile tonal options
Product information "WesAudio Beta76 (B-Ware)"
The Beta76 introduces several important structural improvements over the original version, setting a new standard in its class. One of the key enhancements is the two-mode switch – Modern/Vintage – which determines the input signal desymmetrization circuit and allows for different tonal characteristics.
Additional features include a True Bypass switch and a high-pass filter in the compressor’s sidechain path. The filter offers three selectable cutoff frequencies – 60Hz, 90Hz, and 150Hz – making the Beta76 less sensitive to low frequencies.
This filter is particularly useful when using two compressors in stereo, which can be easily connected via a prepared jack-to-jack cable.
The entire system operates in Class A, with a FET transistor handling gain reduction to deliver fast and clean compression. A high-quality Carnhill audio transformer on the output further enhances the final sound.
The housing is made of brushed stainless steel, while the front panel is crafted from 4mm brushed aluminum, ensuring durability and premium build quality.
