Analog in the box
First tried it as an insert on the master bus, neutral eq settings. I hardly recognized my mix work before. Such an enriching analog sound. Simply amazing

Best sounding 1176 plugin ive tried

Finally Native - thanks, UAD!
For years I craved for UAD plugins, mainly because all the pro guys were using UAD. These plugins seemed to have a special aura of authenticity, and generally got great reviews. Few times, I was very close buying Apollo interface just to get to use the plugins. I am glad I didn't.
After few weeks with the UAD Fairchild compressor, I can safely say that it is quite a good plugin, worth the 49 dollars I bought it for. But it's not that special.
I own Waves PuigChild, IK multimedia Fairchild and Acoustica Audio Fairchild. They all sound and behave differently. The Waves is a piece of shit, bright and harsh, and haven't used it for years. IK multimedia sounds closest to UAD, both are fat and darkish, UAD maybe little better to my ears. The Acoustica Audio is the most HIFI -sounding. Silky top, open sound.
I've been using UAD Fairchild as a mix buss compressor, with bass and guitars and, of course, with male and female vocals. And it sounds good and works just fine, although it always seems to bring out the sibilance in vocals.
So, if you are shopping for a Fairchild plugin, and UAD sells one for 49 dollars - buy it!
Otherwise, it's way too overpriced. And I recommend everybody to try the Acoustica Audio and IK Multimedia Fairchild compressors, too. Like I mentioned, they all sound different.

Brilliant
I have used other software pultecs and these are by far the best.!!!! Game changer on the type of live vintage drum breaks I like to record

The perfect mastering compressor
Love it. Just love it.
Been using other compressors - like the Manley or Germanium - for that last nice master touch, but they often feel too heavy handed or having too much hard knee for most of these jobs. It’s not easy to avoid ducking with them, no matter how I set headroom, input or threshold.
But this CMC is in another league, incredibly transparent and very easy to dial. It is very good at glueing a mix and when a touch of saturation is needed it fits perfectly. It also work wonders in various mix buses, like with drums or guitars.
Thank you UA, this is my new favorite.

Solid analog sound
Used on my vocals and it sounded awesome. Thanks for another classic. Eager to try on other tracks, busses and the master. I have been using the Shadow Hills mastering compressor, but this baby may be my new first choice.

Native only? No Apollo compatibility!?
Yes it's a good plugin, sounds good. but really? no Apollo compatibility? I have invested a good amount of money in Satellites and Apollo interface.
It's NOT FAIR guys

That soul
This piano has a tone and feeling that I’ve not heard in that many places the editing features really makes it stand above the rest it has resonance that goes well with soul, jazz and even rnb
D. Docato
Perfect recreation
Lush, warmth, deep... yes it's a Lexicon
I hope to see soon the 480 in native

Just WoW
J'ai déjà joué un vrai Rhodes mkI et je dois dire que comparer avec un plugin + touché et sensation d'un clavier maitre n'a aucun sens. C'est deux expériences différentes, donc laissons les différences là où elles sont et sachons apprécier ce que nous avons sous les doigts.
Par contre j'ai joué pas mal de simulation convaincantes de Rhodes chez Nord notamment, chez A...ria et d'autres. UAD réussi ici un sacré tour de force : c'est pas juste un instrument virtuel d'un Rhodes : c'est un Rhodes + un studio virtuel embarqué aux possibilités infinies !!
Dans ce studio vous allez retrouver plusieurs manière de sortir le son du Rhodes (comme sur un orginal) en Di, cab stereo avec repique micros, ampli lampe Fender, cabine Leslie etc.
Tout est réalisé avec les simulations, et le savoir faire d'UAD depuis des années !
Et je ne parle même pas des effets embarqués au format pédalier virtuels, dont certains sont vendu par UAD en plugin séparé (Chorus, Tape delay etc) ou même en hardware au format pédale. Et pour finir on a un rack virtuel de traitement pour caler le son au petit oignons: EQ / Comp 1176 / Modulations / Delay / Reverb.
La somme de ce plugin en studio vaut des dizaines de milliers d'euros...
Alors oui, le son de base en Di du Rhodes avec zéro traitement est assez neutre, mais on peut le personnaliser à souhait si on s'implique un minimum dans la confection de preset. Quand je vois ce que propose la concurrence, à mes yeux et mes oreilles il n'y a plus de débat possible. Merci UAD !

Un must have
Un des meilleurs compresseurs que j'ai pu essayer sur un BUS master : subtil comme tout bon compresseur Master qui se respecte mais tellement efficace pour donner un peu de chaleur, de corps, de présence, etc. Les controles sont nombreux et on peut vraiment sculpter la matière finale avec. Le contrôle de saturation est génial pour donner un peu plus de présence au top end. L'essayer c'est l'adopter !
