Advice on simulating 1176 Nuke mode

[dr bonkers]

Does anyone have some tips for simulating the 1176 nuke mode in the Axe-FX III?

I really love it on bass and am struggling with how to simulate it with the JFET compressor.

You can use the JFET or Studio FF Compressor 1 for all in mode:
Detector : Peak
Knee : Med Soft (1176 knee changes with ratio, 2:1 is soft)
Ratio : Over 12
Attack Time: Over .8mS to 1.2mS
Release : over 50mS (most grit) or if you prefer pumping, 100mS+
Auto atk/rel : Off
Threshold as much as you want and I suggest letting in some dry signal with the mix knob when you're happy with the slam.

p.s. normally you'd use the Studio FB for 1176, but in all buttons mode it goes haywire

You're more than welcome. The new comps are really excellent, but I bought a Cali76 just before they came out.
I still think there should be an 1176 as an amp sim, because it basically is a complex preamp with a crazy amount of gain.
