Overview

Get the rich sound of the world's most famous compressors.

The Fairchild Tube Limiter Collection gives you the silky warm compression heard on hundreds of hit records from The Beatles and Pink Floyd to countless Motown classics. Now you can add the same analog "glow" to your vocals, drums and entire mix with the most accurate plug-in emulations ever made of these one-of-a-kind tube compressors. The Fairchild 670 and companion, the Fairchild 660, have defined some of popular music’s most revered sounds. Renowned for its aggressiveness, the 660 punches up piano, bass and guitar tracks, while the flagship 670 is a full stereo compressor that injects vibe and color onto channels, final mixes and even masters.

Far beyond other Fairchild emulations, only the UAD Fairchild Collection is based on accurate circuit models of “golden reference” units from legendary Ocean Way Studios, giving you all the rich tube tone of the unattainable iconic hardware. The Mix control lets you blend your unprocessed signal with the compressed signal, opening worlds of textural possibilities on everything from a drum bus to a mix bus. Punch up your drum bus without triggering the threshold of the compressor with the kick drum, for drums with max impact using the Fairchild's Sidechain Filters. The Headroom (HR) control can be increased to make mastering applications a breeze, raising the gain reduction threshold and lowering distortion. Conversely, you can decrease headroom, lowering the gain reduction threshold and raising distortion for grittier textures that work on everything from vocals and drums to guitar and bass.
