Purple Audio MC77 LIMITER

The MC77 supercedes the MC76 re-engineered 1176 type FET Limiter. The MC77 recreates the audio circuitry of the modification E 1176, utilizing modern components matched to the original.

Features inherited from the MC76:

• Discrete Transistor Audio Path Electronics
• Single Element Class A Output Amplifier
• Transformer Balanced XLR Inputs and Outputs
• Zener Shunt Regulated Audio Power Supply
• Compression Ratios – 4:1, 8:1, 12:1 and 20:1
• Fast Attack Time – 20 microseconds to 800 microseconds
• Release Time – 50 milliseconds to 1.1 second
• Gain of 45dB (full gain with no limiting)
• Ruggedized Design – PCB stiffener, chassis mount transformers
• Purple Anodized Aluminum Front Panel
• 3 Year Warranty*

NEW features in the MC77:

• True Bypass via sealed relay with front panel switch
• Improved stereo linking with front panel switch
• Sidechain insert loop or key input with front panel switch
• Buffered VU meter can monitor input or output level at +4dBu
• LED meter lights that don’t burn out as incandescents do
• Heavy gauge black stainless steel enclosure
• 115v/230v operation switchable from rear panel (serial# 600)
