Vintage UREI 1176LN Rev F Peak Limiter from the Personal Studio of Jimmy Douglass
Serial number #6972 places this unit within the highly regarded Rev F production run, one of the most desirable versions of the classic 1176. Manufactured during the 1970s, Rev F units are celebrated for their distinctive character, fast response and versatility, making them a staple of professional recording studios for decades.
The UREI 1176 is one of the most influential studio processors ever produced. Introduced in 1967, it was the first commercially successful FET compressor and quickly became renowned for its fast attack times, musical compression and ability to add energy and punch and to recordings. The 1176 has been used on countless classic records across rock, soul, funk, hip-hop, R&B and pop, and original vintage examples remain among the most sought-after pieces of analogue studio equipment.
This unit comes directly from the personal studio of Jimmy Douglass. Across a career spanning more than five decades, Douglass has worked with artists including Aaliyah, Timbaland, Missy Elliott, Justin Timberlake, Jay-Z, Aretha Franklin, Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones and countless others.
According to Douglass, this compressor formed part of the studio setup used across numerous major recording and mixing sessions, including work associated with Dr. Dre’s “Still D.R.E.” and Ginuwine’s “Pony,” produced by Timbaland. It represents a direct connection to some of the most influential R&B and hip-hop recordings of the late 1990s and early 2000s.
