Premium sound quality, the Cali-76-TX-L is a 1960’s-style FET compressor pedal with a Lundahl transformer output stage. When Origin launched the Cali76 back in 2012, it was, and still is, like nothing else on the market. With its large, brushed aluminium enclosure, studio-grade circuitry and astonishingly transparent sound, the Cali76 broke the mould in every department. The Cali-76-TX-L is optimized for guitar, bass and studio use. Strictly limited run of 200 Cali76-TX-L.
Origin Effects Cali76-TX-L Reissue Compressor with Lundahl Transformer Features
- 100% Class-A discrete signal path
- Ultra fast “FET” response
- Attack & Release controls

- Rugged VU-style meter
- Low noise electronics
- Class-A discrete output-amplifier driving transformer
- Dual, low-impedance outputs (via audio transformer)
- Unbalanced instrument-level output
- Balanced Line-DI output (Please note that output signal level does not conform to the +4dBm professional studio convention, and so some additional amplification may be required.)
- Ground-lift function to eliminate ground induced hum
- Gain-switch adjusts transformer saturation
- Auto-Shutdown – preserves battery operation
- PSU Spec. Min: 13mA @ 9V / 72mA @ 18V (PSU not included)
- Suggested PSU Rating: 200mA for optimum start-up
- Designed and built in England
The Cali76-TX-L features a high-end Lundahl transformer, offering the ultra-linear performance, transparent low end and flat phase response that many users prefer for use in the studio and on bass guitar. The Cali-76-TX-L features a 12-stage LED gain reduction meter, a balanced line-level/DI output, and a high/low gain switch – useful for pushing the transformer harder.
Cali76-TX-L Controls
- OUTPUT: overall output level
- INPUT/COMP: sets how much signal passes the threshold and is compressed
- RATIO: sets the amount of attenuation from anywhere between 4:1 and 20:1
- ATTACK: determines the time taken for the compressor to react to the presence of a signal
- RELEASE: sets the duration of gain reduction before recovering to no compression
- GAIN: pushes the transformer into saturated overdrive
- PAD: drops the signal from LINE/DI output by around 28dB
- GND: disconnects the ground connection to solve ground-loop-related issues
