WesAudio ngTubeComp Tube Compressor - Analog Warmth, Digital Precision

The WesAudio ngTubeComp is a next-generation vari-mu tube compressor that blends classic analog warmth with advanced digital recall and automation. Featuring a fully analog signal path with 26 dBu headroom, six tubes, and four transformers, it delivers smooth, musical compression ideal for vocals, drums, and mastering. With dual mono, stereo, and mid-side modes, dual output options (tube/Carnhill transformer or electronically balanced), and a tube saturation circuit, the ngTubeComp offers unmatched versatility. Seamless DAW integration via USB/Ethernet and up to 100 internal presets make it a powerful tool for professional studios.

Pure Analog Vari-Mu Compression

The ngTubeComp’s fully analog design, driven by six premium tubes and four high-grade transformers, delivers authentic vari-mu compression with a 26 dBu headroom. Its smooth, program-dependent dynamics and rich tonal character excel at unifying drum busses, submixes, and full mixes, adding subtle coloration for a polished, professional sound. The tube saturation circuit enhances harmonic depth, perfect for creative sound design.

Versatile Operation Modes

Offering three operational modes, the ngTubeComp adapts to any production need: Dual Mono for independent channel processing, Stereo for cohesive track balancing, and Mid-Side for precise stereo imaging. Dual output options include a tube and Carnhill transformer with IRON PAD for warm, saturated tones, or an electronically balanced output for a cleaner, modern profile, catering to diverse sonic requirements.

Advanced Digital Control

Seamless DAW integration via VST2, VST3, AU, or AAX plugins allows real-time parameter control and automation, with touch-sensitive encoders for recording automation directly into your DAW. USB and Ethernet connectivity ensure flexible setup options, while hardware A/B/C buttons and internal storage for up to 100 presets enable quick recall, even without plugin integration, streamlining workflows in studio or live settings.
