MHB Red
Michael Brauer's Rare Vintage Hybrid Compressor
MHB Red - At a Glance
✔️
Developed with Michael Brauer
- Modeled on the personal Fairchild* 666 of Grammy-winning mix engineer Michael H. Brauer (Coldplay, John Mayer, Florence and the Machine), capturing the behavior of a compressor that has been a key part of his vocal chain for decades.
✔️
A Fairchild unlike any other
- The 666 was Fairchild's hybrid opto-compressor, distinct from the delta-mu 660 and 670. Its unique combination of tube amplification and solid-state control circuitry produces a musical compression character all its own - part compressor, part saturation box.
✔️
Modernized controls with vintage soul
- Attack, ratio, threshold, release, and makeup gain controls have been updated for an intuitive workflow, while a dedicated THD control lets you dial in everything from subtle tube warmth to aggressive saturation.
✔️
Built for the mix
- Sidechain high-pass and low-pass filters, stereo link, wet/dry mix for parallel compression, and Kazrog's Analog Entropy feature for authentic component-level variation between channels.
