So great!

Never had the honour to hear the real thing, but this plugin is great on its own. It makes whatever goes thru alive. It brings out the room on drums wonderfully. With this one and the 1176 and LA-2A you have a great palette of colours at your disposal.

Amazing!

This plug in adds warmth and allows you to control and transient you want. The input can be driven harder for more coloration. This is the best emulation of a Fairchild I have tried. Bravo UAD!

Next best thing to real hardware

The Fairchild Collection completes the Holy Trinity of classic studio compressors. With these, the 1176s, and the LA2As, one can have a virtual rack full of the best compression hardware ever made. These come so close to the sound of the real things that it's fair to ask why anyone not running a famous high-dollar studio would want to bother buying and maintaining actual hardware.

The Fairchilds specifically bring a sense of weight and depth that is rarely available in plugin form. The saturation and coloration possibilities are very nice to have, and the compression action is spot-on. Bravo.

Go-to Compressor

Classic 1176 compressor bundle? How can you possibly go wrong? As expected, they sound just like the hardware we all know and love. Killer on anything you throw at it, and the blue stripe is front and center in so many of my mixes. Previously a lover of the CLA versions, but the slightly different character in the UAD blue stripe has me reaching for these every time.

Great!

Don't have an original 1176, but the plug-ins are great sounding units, for almost every material. I produce techno music, and I'm very happy with the punch it gives to all my sounds.

1176 limiter plugin

So so good!! Great for vocals and drums.
It makes vocals sit perfect in a mix.

The Manley Massive Passive EQ

What a monster eq. This plugin has a clarity and a true emulation of the real hard ware that I have yet to find in most of the other plugins. Though I haven't had the opportunity to use it as extensively as I will. I have high hopes and high expectations for it.

Dettagliato, preciso e versastile. Impossibile farne a meno in ogni session.

Classic UAD improved tenfold

Seriously incredible piece of gear in your virtual rack. The original Fairchild was amazing, and added a thick character to anything you applied it to. UA continues to put out top notch product, and this update is a perfect addition to their updates on classic uad1 plugs. LOVE the new Fairchild, and it's already ended up in every single mix.

It´s okay

Good, but not very good. The Hardware is better! I thinks, this is normal

I loves it, I do!

You get five great plugs for a decent price! Just using the gain knob on the 212L puts character on a sterile signal, and pushes it into a nice emulated analog sound! I use the gate/expander on kick and snare for tight and clean drum sounds. the compressor is wonderful! it can be grabby or subtle, but i go for the grabby sound. the eq is precise and adds character to whatever you are using it as. the ability to put this before or after the comp is cool. I love it and i try to use this on every track on my mix. my quad lets me put this on most of the essential tracks on my mix: snare, kick, toms, overhead, guitars group, bass and vocal group, before overloading the computer. I always use these on my tracks now! it's my secret sauce and glue!

Possibly the best tape emulation plugin ever

This is a great plugin! Thick and gooey mixture of compression, subtle eq shaping, and rich, harmonic saturation. I have 5 different tape emulation plugins and this one is by far the most sophisticated sounding plugin of the group. It's almost always fatter, smoother, bigger sounding.

Best Strip I've Used

I've been able to get some really smooth dynamics especially for drums. The saturation from turning up the gain and turning down the output gives an incredibly realistic tone. I use this a lot on drums because the EQ has an easy interface that I like as well as the sound quality I need. I use this on almost every drum track (sometimes I like to have other plugins for kick and snare). I used to like to get really picky with which plugins I use on my drums and have shied away from channel strips, but this plugin changed my mind.

Warm and Wonderful!

This plug-in is just plain fun to use. Covers the gamut of compression from mild to subtle distortion. Great on a multitude of tracks.
