In the real world, one cannot use the 660 in a 'stereo' configuration. It has a completely different sound: threshold, distortion structure, attenuation range, gain, etc. Why the attack time is different for mono transients then for only one of the two channels transients? I could imagine if gain reduction would be different, but why attack time?Ĭlick to expand.Well, the difference is that the Fairchild 660 was originally a Mono unit. And I actually don't understand it very much. The only thing when I can imagine some difference is something about attack time, there is: 'Mono transients will have an effective attack time of about one half the attack time for transients on only one of the two channels.'īut I'm not sure if it really makes difference between 670 L/R linked and 660. Isn't it the same situation when I put on stereo channel F660?
Both used on stereo channel.īoth compressors of 670 in left/right linked mode work together in the same manner for both channels (left and right), and the source signal is actually average of both channels. Hello, I just want to ask about the difference between Fairchild 670 left/right linked and Fairchild 660.
