Great for VOs
If you think good compression and EQ is all that's needed for Voice-Overs, which is true - wait till you use the FATSO.
S. Gough
Color Box
Great for adding color to a vocal parallel track or adding the body to a drum track without destroying the transient.
A. Chapin
One of my fav pieces of all time
This hardware has always been a favorite in the studio. I love being able to take multiple instances of this anywhere when I'm not in the studio!

P. Galanakis
Awesome on drums and bass!
This makes my drums punch and thickens them at the same time.

For vocal and drum bus
for more dynamic, emphasized sound but not too loud.

It brings to our ear a unique warm sound
By my little humble experience with audio, Fatso jr. is a pocket knife, a powerful tool for any type of recording and mixing work. It brings to our ear a unique warm sound
P. Aitchison
So many possibilities...
This thing is like mixing superglue! Drums. Bass. Mix buss. The FATSO can give it all a soft warm hug or squeeze it tight tight tight.
I grew up on simple compressors like the LA-2A and there are a lot more controls to get your head around at first on the FATSO - but the learning curve is well worth it!

Oh yeah!
The Catalyst for me to buy UAD

This is a great alternative for vocal tracking. It really warms up the vocal when used with a clean condenser mic
R. Gun
OH Yeah
I owned it now for a longer period and have to say: this is one of the outstanding plugins i have. The sound is present and distinctive. It uses a lot of DSP but it does not consume it, instead it transformes it in sound. If you don´t use the transformer circuit it consumes also less DSP, perfect. Good inteded distortions.
One of the highlights of UAD

Tasty coloring
Something I've looked forward to get for a long time already. Always played a lot with the demo version, but I really couldn't resist the promo offer :)
a. possis
not bad
not bad, but for my works is not so simple use it in a "correct mode", i mean that jr version is simple and give good color, sr is hard to use for my electronic music. i like it but i use it because i have it. there are others plug more .."flexible" .

FATSO™ Jr./Sr. Tape Sim. & Compressor
The Empirical Labs Fatso phenomenal hardware version adds saturation and compression that does exactly what the model states - FATSO. The software emulation captures this so well, guitar and bass tracks are grittier and have more harmonics.
M. Deslongchamps
I simply love it!
The sound is just incredible. I am using it in different ways, like mastering first plugin in the chain to give that analog feels and glue to the sound. Also on DJ Set to make them feels more natural and less digital. Excellent on Bass also! I-JUST-LOVE-IT! :)

Dear Fatso
I use the Fatso.
nice analog flavor and harmonics.
The WARMTH is de-esseing percussion and loud.
K. Young han
good
Fatso's legendary thick sound! It belongs to top of purchased plug-in items. It is used not only for bass but also for mastering.
M. Craddock
underwhelmed
again did not receve the bang I thought it would have. maybe my expectations were too high I actually own the EL8 distressor ans thought it would shine at least as well as that..fell flat
