Fairchild 670 Compressor Emulation
|
|
|
The two channel Fairchild 670 is the “Holy Grail” of compressors in studio gear esoterica, not only because of its price (around $30,000 on the vintage market), but its extreme rareness and the difficulties in maintaining such a piece. With 14 transformers, 20 vacuum tubes, and a 6 rack-space encompassing girth, the 670 is the heavyweight champion of compression weighing in at 65 pounds. UA’s emulation is modeled after Allen Side’s favorite unit from Ocean Way Studios. UA went to great efforts to capture the unique and sublime sonics of this famous mu-type tube limiter, as well as maintaining all the features of the original. UA adds an auxiliary panel allowing access to rear access controls, common mods, and unique Universal Audio-only additions.
