An Overview of the New Fairchild 670 

This makes the SHMC look like a steal. Lmao.

Even those who do want to buy this are paying money for a trademark, when there are significantly more affordable alternatives if you want a great vari-mu compressor.

@@aleksamrkela831 have you heard this one?

It is exactly those who are willing to pay $35,000 who needs such a walk-through. I once represented in a professional capacity at a exclusive meet up for those having bought the most expensive Gibson guitars in the area. Price tag over a certain point and talent seemed to be mutually exclusive.

@@hepphepps8356 You're not wrong there.

@@aleksamrkela831 didnt think so

Ikr. They need to compress that price.

@@40EastTrill Lol! Great pun. There are analog vari-mu compressors that are a fraction of the cost of this. Still, they punch way above their price point and REALLY deliver the goods.

@@aleksamrkela831 I'm sure. But I have my eye on the SPL Iron and maybe go with their whole system.

The hardware looks awesome

Thanks, i need a constant reminder of this thinking of the what if’s as i explore writing for vocals 😅 i keep coming back to “if i had analog maybe id sound better” and then just doubling down on if i just learn better how to use digital plugins properly, i can sound amazing purely in the box Definitely feels good knowing i havent yet sunken $3000+ on an analog neve preamp and octo compressor yet, though the thought of how much more efficient i could be with tracking always lingers 🫠

​@@prestonleebenjamin Yes, you should learn everything you can learn in the box. Squeeze every last drop out of what you already have. But plugins and hardware do NOT sound the same and will never sound the same. Both do things the other can never provide, and for that reason, a hybrid setup for tracking and mixing is perfect. Don't listen to people saying you don't need one or the other. People who say that "you don't need hardware" are usually people who've always been ITB and never touched hardware. Their claims are utterly baseless, because they lack evidence that can only be gathered with experience. :P Also, you can get great hardware without breaking the bank. The bang for buck has gotten so much better in recent decades.

@@aleksamrkela831 appreciate your comment. i will take that into account, thanks!

i’m not sure efficient is the word i’d use with hardware vs vst. hardware is just cool and tactile, but is it better? i’m sure every years someone wins a grammy with music produced wholly in the box. i’d say it’s just a different experience.
