The WA76-D2 accurately reproduces 2-channels of one of the fastest and most loved studio compressors of all time known for its generous headroom, ultra-fast dynamic control, and rich analog tone. Using premium and custom components like O-12 (input) and 5002 (output) transformers from CineMag, WA76-D2 achieves authentic 76 rev D style compression, known for “low noise” preamp stage with unmistakably analog character. Added modern controls to achieve parallel compression, active & true-bypass, and variable sidechain filtering flexibility make WA76-D2 an ideal choice for modern recording workflows that require vintage tone shaping. WA76-D2 recreates the legendary tone & control of the vintage 76-style compression used in studios by artists like Missy Elliott, Timbaland, Van Halen, Rick Rubin, Daft Punk, and many more.

Features

  • Classic Studio Compression With Rich Analog Tone: The WA76-D2 is a faithful recreation of the vintage 76 “D-style” 2-channel FET studio compressor with added features to meet modern recording workflows. Recreating the lauded “D-style” version of the 76 compressor known for its speed, lower noise, and rich analog tone, the WA76-D2 offers the ideal blend of vintage circuitry and modern controls to deliver ultimate flexibility without sacrificing vintage analog character. 
  • Critical Classic Controls + Bonus Modern Add-Ons: WA76-D2 has all of the traditional 76-style compression controls; attack, release, ratio, input, output, and meter display. In addition to the classic controls expected on a 76-style compressor, WA76-D2 is a stereo unit and has dry/wet mix for parallel compression, selectable input impedance, active & true-bypass, and variable sidechain high-pass filtering to tackle unruly bass that dominates the compressor’s attention.
  • Custom CineMag Transformers: Just like in the vintage 76-style compressors from revision “A” to D”, the WA76-D2 uses custom large-core, CineMag input & output transformers. The transformers inside the WA76-D2 use the exact same spec data and materials (nickel and steel) used by Reichenbach Engineering in the original vintage designs known for delivering rich analog tone to any signal chain. 
  • Premium Components & Accurate D-style Circuitry: WA76-D2 uses premium ceramic & electrolytic capacitors, metal film resistors, and a revised preamp stage, improving the linear response of the FET. These key components complete a circuit that cuts no corners in delivering an authentic “cleaner, low noise” 76-style compression experience. 
  • Hand-Tested In Austin, TX: Like all Warm Audio gear, WA76-D2 is meticulously hand-tested and inspected by trained technicians with a passion for making music in Austin, TX USA.

I loved this sunscreen! Does not irritate.
Size: 1.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Matte
My skin is medium/dark tan with pink undertone and is sensitive/ rash prone. I purchased this because it was listed on folliculitisscout.com as a sunscreen that does not cause skin irritation. It does not irritate at all and does not have any ingredients that would flare eczema / rosacea/ psoriasis/seborrheic acne/ etc. This sunscreen is very much like a sheer foundation. ( I chose matte) I was afraid it might look too much like makeup, which I really didn't want. I wanted a natural look without having the ghost pale look of sunscreen. This was perfect for my skin. Blended in perfectly without looking like sunscreen or makeup. It has a very nice finish. It is described as matte, but I would call it a natural finish, not too overly matte. I took five different face sunscreens on my most recent vacation and ended up using only this. It is pricey but good! I will be wearing this all summer.

Great quality sunscreen!
Size: 1.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Original
I love this brand of sunscreen for the face. Colorscience Classic goes on smooth and blends in with my natural fair coloring. It protects my skin well. I use it every day since my dermatologist kept reminding how important it is to protect my skin.

BEST MAKEUP EVERRRR!!!
Size: 1.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Original
Love this! Blends into natural skin color so well. Coverage is great without looking cakey or like heavy makeup but evens out skin tone and lasts all day. Doesn’t dry my skin. I’m 50+ and don’t even use moisturizer before applying. Apply with fingers and use a brush with powder and again, lasts all day! I don’t use anything else. However I do NOT like their color sciencepowder. It’s horrible. But I love the Younique pressed powder with it. Bought on a whim to get spf and so glad I did. Tried It brand and some others and none compares!

Almost a home run
Size: 1.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Original
Initially I really loved how this sunscreen made my skin look. The tint provided enough coverage to even my skin tone and hide my remaining melasma. It gives a very nice glow that doesn’t look too greasy. I have dry skin, and this was moisturizing enough for summer; although I would probably need a moisturizer first in winter. After using this product for many weeks however, I realized that it leaves residue on my hair making it feel chalky and dry. I’ve tried different techniques of washing my hands really well after so I don’t spread residue to my hair when I fix it, but I found it still made it’s way into my bangs. I even tried pulling my hair back and wait an hour before putting it down but inevitably my hair got this dirty chalky feel to it. It makes me feel dirty which is enough to deter me from wanting to use it exclusively. I wanted to use a tinted physical sunscreen to stop the pigmentation to my melasma, but I just prefer how chemical sunscreens feel. I started to use this over my cheekbones after I apply my chemical sunscreen to help deflect blue light, but I think going forward I’ll just purchase a more affordable option if it is going to be used on such a small area.
