Exhibition of the FairComp-670, a replica of the Fairchild Comp 670: Demonstration of the album mastering sound source of nokko

NIHON ELECTRO HARMONIX exhibited ""FairComp-670,"" a compressor manufactured by the German company MODE MACHINES. This is a replica of the ""Fairchild Compressor 670"" that has been called the ""vintage compressor"" and which has been used as high-end equipment in the world's leading recording studios since the 1960s. The ""Fairchild Compressor 670"" is a compressor that utilizes no less than 20 vacuum tubes. Few of these actual machines exist and they are said to have a market price of 30,000 dollars or more even today.

At the venue, there was a demonstration of the sound source used in the album mastering of nokko. This product has been made to faithfully mimic the Fairchild Compressor and uses vintage vacuum tubes. (The compressor is an effector to give effects such as a reduction in the difference of sound intensity.)

This firm also showcased the following products in the Miktek brand (microphones manufactured in the U.S.) that is starting to handle others.
