Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The Airchild Six Sixty is a seriously cool compressor that nails the vibe of a classic Fairchild, but with a modern twist. The active EQ is a brilliant touch, letting you subtly sculpt your tone while maintaining dynamic control. It’s ideal for players seeking a transparent, musical compression without getting overly technical – think session players, blues/roots players, and anyone wanting to add polish and sustain.
