In the world of professional audio, classic sound processing devices hold a special place, adding unique character, warmth, and “soul.” Among such legends is the Fairchild 660 compressor, a symbol of the golden age of sound recording, known for its unmatched, musical compression and the ability to “glue” mix elements together.
Discover the Legend of Dynamics with VariMoon by Analog Obsession
Now, this desirable tube sound becomes available in your digital studio thanks to the VariMoon plugin from Analog Obsession. VariMoon is a high-quality emulation of the legendary limiting amplifier in the style of the Fairchild 660, designed to bring warmth, depth, and vintage character to your mixes.
What is VariMoon?
VariMoon implements the principle of Vari-Mu compression, which is based on the use of tubes to control the level. This type of compression is characterized by a smooth, signal-dependent change in the compression ratio, making it extremely musical and transparent. VariMoon doesn’t just compress the signal; it saturates it with harmonics, adding a pleasant density and vintage charm.
