Fairchild ® 670<br />
CLASSIC VARIABLE-Mu COMPRESSOR PLUG-IN<br />
Exclusively for: Exacting Emulation of the ‘Holy Grail’ In Variable Mu/Tube Limiting.<br />
In studio gear esoterica, the two-channel Fairchild 670 is the ‘Holy Grail’ of hardware compressors.<br />
<strong>Universal</strong> <strong>Audio</strong> went to great lengths to capture the unique and sublime sonics of this<br />
famous Variable Mu/Tube limiter — while simultaneously eliminating its 65 lb. girth, 14 transformers,<br />
20 vacuum tubes, and $30,000 vintage-market price tag — for our UAD Powered Plug-In<br />
version. Modeled on noted engineer/producer Allen Sides’ favorite unit from Ocean Way Studios, the Fairchild 670<br />
plug-in incorporates all of the features from the original unit. Several new UAD-only features round out this offering,<br />
giving the Fairchild 670 Powered Plug-In added flexibility in modern studio settings.<br />
Jacknife Lee<br />
Producer/Engineer (U2, R.E.M., Snow Patrol)<br />
“The UAD Fairchild 670 is beautiful on drum<br />
subs, mix buss, and pretty much anything<br />
else you can throw at it. It’s got a smoothness<br />
that’s hard to beat.”<br />

“With the others, you have to work all day... With the UAD,<br />
you put it on and it sounds like a Fairchild.”<br />
– Matt Knobel, Engineer (Lenny Kravitz, Mary J. Blige))<br />

“The UAD Fairchild compressor, just like the original<br />
device, is an absolute winner.”<br />
– Henry Jackman, Composer (X-Men: First Class, Gulliver’s<br />
Travels)<br />

“I love the sound of a Fairchild [plug-in] on an acoustic guitar.<br />
For me, it just brings out that natural sound that I like.”<br />
