A very good tutorial for this misunderstood and often badly used compressor. When you truly tame this bad boy and become a blackbelt it is arguably the most gorgeous sounding compressor plugin ever (in my humble opinion). The tutorial on the piano part is especially useful.
If you just learned everything there is to know about this one compressor and all its applications, you have a LOT in your mix toolbox. One of the best and most heard pieces of gear ever made.
I bought it and it has changed how I use compression on buses, especially for drums, but also on buses with DI/amped bass tracks. The trick is to monitor the GR and adjust the makeup gain, just like they show in the video. Sometimes, you should only listen to what a compressor does, but in the case of the Fairchild, watch the GR and then make it up, and you will have a terrific raw, organic colour on your buses and tracks.
the setting in this video for the final mix stage are what is the best to use this compressor listen at the depth when it is engaged in the full mix you will notice why
I didn’t get into buying plugins for the first 10+ years of recording, but once I got an Apollo, I strategically bought a few specific UAD plugins, and it isn’t the end-all-be-all, but it does offer another 7-10% if I had to guess. Could be higher in some scenarios. I still use a ton of stock stuff, but some of these UAD plugins sound WAY more like analog gear.
i know you didnt ask for my opinion on this but lately ive been using it on my master buss (for mastering) and ive been using lat/vert mode (mid side comp) and it sounds pretty damn good after tweaking it to your liking
Yesterday I put this on a guitar going direct into my Apollo Firewire. Mind you, I went to audio engineering school. I went through those presents until I found one of my liking and moved on. I dont have time to spend hours tinkering with a plugin! who does???

Glad you enjoyed it!
Agreed, I have had this plug in for a couple of years, and have only just watched this video, Boy, do I have a lot to learn!!!!
Yeah that threshold down headroom up think blew my mind. So whats the difference between that and raising the input to achieve a similar effect
@@Theboydevoyeid still like to know the answer to this!

👍
Totally agreed. This thing rules on vocals.
Very cool example of increasing the "knee" of this compressor! I've gotta check that out a little.

I was heading down to buy some plugins, but along the way I met a guy with a cow,..,he had some magic beans for sale.
Whatever makes you feel better, man.

How is CPU usage?
The song used here is fantastic. Can you please link me to the song and artist to download it for my music collection?
Where is the track used in this video from?
Geektronic bad woman - jeffrey james ,,, 1 year later hahaahah
where do you normally put the Fairchild 670 in your mastering chain?
i know you didnt ask for my opinion on this but lately ive been using it on my master buss (for mastering) and ive been using lat/vert mode (mid side comp) and it sounds pretty damn good after tweaking it to your liking
Wow now is there a reason that 670 plugin looks different graphically than the one I have? The older version?
just this compressor, I'm mixing my tracks! lol
Just bought
🥂
lol I have been misusing this so much.
5 minutes in 6:20 :D:D:D:D:D
how do you put this shit into multi mono mode?
That's up to the DAW. In PT you choose multi-mono in the pulldown.
la franchement ,je vois pas . aucune difference de son,ou si peu. prix 20 euros maximun
"Now YOU can have this $50,000 plugin on your rack"
LOLOLOLOL
