Beautiful sounding compression
So easy to get a good sound from this. Pushing the input a bit gives a beautiful saturation and smooth compression.

Smooth Compression for Bass
I've been using this for my Bass ever since I Demo'd it. Works beautifully, I've tried other plugins but this one has something else going on.

Access to that sound!
In my career I've worked at very few studios with actual 660's or 670's. Enough to know what they sound like though. And that experience has given me literacy enough to know it when I hear it. I was never going to be able to buy the thing myself. But this plug in has given me membership to that sonic club. Much closer than any other I've used and that includes pretty much all of them. The ballistics are on and the sonic signature is on.
Nicely done!

Close your eyes because this "plug-in" is practically Analog
Having the Fairchild Collection is a must especially for new UAD users, sounds great on anything you put it on.
Since working with the real thing, I can say the plug-in captures every nuance that the actual Analog has. Amazing.

Sounds great!!!
I have no clue of this sounds like the hardware. I'm just a poor boy. But these sounds fantastic. Adds a bit of edge and aggression, depth and weight. I really loved the original, and this is as good and much better. Great on vocals and guitars, drums, everything that needs some extra mojo.

Cool tube sound
Really cool sounding plug-in. Very musical saturation. Must have.

Fairchild Tube Limiter collection
Great set off compressor options for a mix engineer. Great for drums, bass, and vocal compression. I love the easy access control for the attack (DC threshold) and the option to blend the compressed and uncompressed signals.

Fairchild magic
Never used the hardware. But so few have.
This VST certainly brings a special touch to audio manipulation.
Again the collection bundle slays the legacy version, in all aspects. Especially the sidechain access, which absolutely changes how it reacts... a feature that renders the legacy-version toothless by comparison [despite me using it everywhere, prior to getting the full-fat version] .
Love this plug-in. Regular use in all sessions.

150 years ago they'd've burned y'all as witches!
The Fairchild 670 seems to me to vindicate completely UA's decision to focus on emulation.
The symbiosis between analogue and digital seems flawless, the genius of the Fairchild designer is allowed to come through because the genius' at UA have had the skill and humility to make their work invisible.
I also think the AMPEX emulation has this quality too!
I guess what I'm trying to say is that, having worked in the box with the usual plugin suspects for years I'm now finding that UA's plugins are teaching me more about recorded sound than I could've imagined. For that I have to say thank you!

Talk about vibe
This was the first plugin that I bought on the UAD platform after purchasing my UAD Apollo. Since then, it has been used on everything from mix bus to drum bus. It has its distinct character that just does so much, even when not even compressing. Definitely worth buying, if not a demo at the least. Lowering the head room and driving this unit further just gets you the most incredible drum sounds.

Very good hardware emulation
I think the UA Fairchild compressor plugins is a very good emulation of the glorious hardware. Warm, easy to use, it can makes the sound wide and coloured. I use it expecially in the master track. Highly recommended

Jesus wept...
When he turned this s#it on! This is a beautiful plugin. Cheers to UA and all involved for creating it. Don't overuse it and you'll have a great outcome. Overuse it and become a God.

Just what the doctor ordered
Just got the Fairchild and I love it. Instant punch and guts. Even my singing sounds good now.

Color and control
Perfect for some sources, like my craggy dad's vocal. Helped maintain solidity and presence, and brought out the grit. Also love the 1176 and LA2 emulations, but this one rounds out the vocabulary!

Mojo machine.
Title says it all. I find myself using these compressors a lot on things where my other software compressors simply won't do. I am especially fond of the 660!
