Punchy.
I didn't think I needed this plugin, but bought it anyway. Man, have I been missing out! I especially like the strip on bass guitar and drums. What an amazing tool for sculpting!

Thats it!!!
I work with Cubase and normally with the compressors/limiters from Waves, wich are good too ... but the fairchild is better. It's like you come from the second league to the premier league or from a Ford to an Audi (sorry, I'm from Germany :-)
The 670 on the stereo bus makes a song fat, big, large - you have to hear it... it is indescribable - and if you own one it is an indescribable joy !!!

My go-to channel strip.
Thank you UA team for bringing in another great hardware emulation to the UAD family! This is wht UAD is my choice for plugins. The API strip is my go-to strip for now & I found tht the API strip is best to mold-up instruments (piano/clean gtr) rather then vocals (still prefer the SSL strip on vocals) If I have to choose between all 3 strip from UAD. I will blindly choose the API strip. Keep it up UA team. Bring in some more hardware emulation & keep UAD exclusive for expensive, hard-to-get plugins. Stop all the other useless plugins that we can buy directly from other online shop. Thanks!

One of my new favorites. Very glad that I added to my UA collection of plug ins. UA is making some great stuff.

Something just a little off...
Yeah, it's pretty good on some sources... but it also seems to add a character that's a little strong rude, and not easily remedied afterwards. This is especially when using the EQ. If you compare this eq to the 550a, there's no comparison. The 550a comes out sounding so much more solid and beautiful, where the vision eq tends to sound a bit weak and phasey. especially disappointing considering the DSP usage. But I do think the Pre, Gate and comp sound pretty fantastic...

Great!
Sounds GGreat! honestly tho the LEGACY version sounds better on vocals then all these to me except the LA 2. The LA 2 is the better of them i feel, on vocals. Worth grabbing and judging on your own though!

Fair play!
Expensive but worth the price. One familiar it has a great sound and omits the original fairchild character

The WOW factor in one plugin
The Studer A800 is hard to beat. Take any sound and put it though this with any preset you like, and you will still hear a WOW factor. For those of you who are new to UAD2 Platform, this should be one of the first plugins you purchase. Its warm magnetic tones can make even a less than great sound go up in quality a few notches. Put it on a beautiful sound and it becomes breathtaking.

A UAD essential
This is one of my dessert island plugins along with the SSL channel. You have everything you need to sculpt a track. The API punch is authentically represented here. If you know "that" sound, this won't disappoint.

Kicked my other Fairchild's to the curb
I really like the simplicity and sound of the Fairchild, and after demoing the UAD version I bought it to replace my Waves Puigchild and IK Fairchild haven't looked back.

Excelente
Realmente un gran plugin, reverberaciones exquisitas que no enturbian el sonido original aportando cálidos espacios, me encanta. La utilizo insertada o por auxiliar sin problemas. Lo negativo, no hay manual en español, cada día son más sus clientes de habla hispana y sería bueno considerarlos.

Really great plugin, exquisite reverberations not cloudy the original sound providing warm spaces, I love it. I use by insert or aux smoothly. The negative, not manual in Spanish, every day more Hispanic customers and would be good to consider them.

Beautiful little DSP hog
I'm only giving 4 stars because this thing eats up DSP so hard to use in a mix. For tracking, however, it's totally worth it. I have a preset I made for my voice that I use before some light LA2A compression (mic is a clone of a Neumann U87). For 90% of the mixes I do (all with myself singing) I find that combination alone is perfect and I rarely need to mess with EQ/compression after tracking. I would love to use more in mixing, but similarly to the A800, the DSP usage rarely allows it (I have a DUO). So my only criticisms here are price and DSP usage.

Smooth tape emulation
I've owned this for a while, and I'm finally comfortable enough to write a review on it. Subtlety seems to be the key word with this thing. I don't like what it does to the low end, but find it can really warm up mids and smooths things up when pushed just a bit. I don't like kick feeding into it so I keep off of the master bus (or have kick by pass it); and same deal with drums bus. Saturating it a bit on vocals can be nice, but again subtly. This thing is a DSP hog, but I do love it for premasters. As a DUO owner, I tend to reach for other tape emulators first (e.g., J37) before using this for that reason.

Just Love It
I got this collection voices these work magic. Having three classics for a third of the price of the hardware. THIS IS A MUST HAVE.

Most Buy
This eq is songs so smooth. Its hard to mess up with it!

Amazing and Awesome
The very sound of this API vision is AWESOME! need i say more? it simply glues a track together tight.
You want your tracks locked and loaded? This is the one and only, no other the API!
R. Murphy
Great Great!
It kills the Waves version in my opinion. I love it on Piano and bass. It's awesome on drums and vocals too. Great sounding, although I have never heard a real Fairchild on my own mix, but I think for this price the UAD can't be beat.

Best channel strip plugin ever
I was not planning on getting this before demoing it but after I did I knew I would be buying it. It is such a useful tool. Preamp saturation, filters, gate, EQ, Compression and level control all in a single interface. The fact that it can be used with unison preamps make it indispensable for tracking. One of my favourite features is something that's often overlooked but the metering range on the compressor makes it very easy to dial in gentle peak limiting while tracking.

Nice EQ - Pultec
Very smooth easy handling. With authentic Pultec overtones.
