Heritage Audio has undertaken an unprecedented engineering effort to encapsulate all the charm of the HERCHILD 670 into a more affordable unit so that the flavor of its predecessor is now available for studios with all types of budgets.
Welcome to the next generation. The first ever stereo Vari-MU compressor in a 2 slot 500 series module, based on the renowned Fairchild, could not have existed without the years of experience in building the most complex 500 series modules on the market together with the years of studying and developing the HERCHILD models 660 and 670.
