With a faithful reproduction of each control, this is an incredibly accurate model that captures every nuance of one of the best Fairchild units available, one considered a true 'golden reference'. This module is based on the 'Holy Grail' of compressor/limiters, the Fairchild™ 670. These 20-tube tone titans which now fetch upwards of 50,000 impart an unmistakable silky warmth heard on hundreds of hit records from the Beatles and Pink Floyd to countless Motown classics. The controls are simple: input, attack time, release time, output. The Fairchild 670 and 660 are the most coveted vintage compressor/limiters in the world, with good reason. In 1995, Empirical Labs set out to design a “Swiss Army Compressor” that could emulate the 1176, LA-2A, Fairchild 670 and DBX 160A. Fairchild 670 and Pultec plugin test using UAD, T-Racks and URS. The Fairchild 670 compressor's attack and release times are controlled by the switch labeled 'time-constant' and those settings are as follows.
The Fairchild 670 compressor is a well-known vintage stereo limiter that was released way back in the 1950s by Fairchild Recording Equipment Corporation. The FC70 uses state of the art processing to emulate a fully balanced transformer-coupled signal path, combined with an innovative delay-free. Inspired by the legendary smooth, effortless dynamic control and uniquely musical character of the classic Fairchild 670 limiter, the FC70 tames dynamics without robbing the mix of power and detail.
