Checked email & was about to hit the delete key when I noticed the price. $17.76 U.S. for their take on the 1176. No info on when the reduced pricing will end. KA1776 Regular price is $39.99.

I also grabbed El Jaun Limiter which gave me another 10% off at checkout.

Formats & system info are at the bottom of the product page.

For me this seemed like an easy call and, imho. I was not wrong. Added to an existing session on the kick & toms wanting to push them forward while holding steady. With the default setting everything just worked. Only had to back off the output about 1db for the kick & 2db for the Toms Bus.

From there I tried the Ration selectors landing on 8 for the kick. Controlled tone with punch while retaining low end definition.

Used 12 for the toms which brought forward the punch & attack ( no transient designer needed).

Also...maybe grab the Power Grid Disruptor while it is free. You will need to create an account to get the serial#.

 

Tukan 1176 sounds better in ABX blind tests.
