Universal Audio 1176LN Hardware Limiter Versus UAD1176LN Plug-in Shoot Out
For our latest shoot-out we thought we would have some fun and put the Universal Audio 1176LN limiter versus the UAD 1176LN plug-in to see which one you prefer, or maybe if you can’t tell the difference.
The Audio
3 mono sources were selected for the test; bass guitar, acoustic guitar and female vocal. 3 plug-in presets that ship with the plug-in were selected and then printed to a new track. The original source audio was then sent to the hardware with the settings matched (or as near as can be) with the plug-in and printed to new audio tracks. All audio was then set at -6db for final output for the test.
