Description

The J Rockett Audio Designs Airchild Six Sixty Compressor Pedal is In stock available now for fast UK delivery online for GBP 239 + Delivery. This excellent piece of kit is manufactured by J Rockett and in New condition and comes with a great warranty.

The Airchild Six Sixty simply makes you want to play more. It increases sustain without crushing your output, imparts richness to your overall tone, and adds feel to your playing. Our target tones were the slide tones of Lowell George and the singing lead/rhythm tones of Mark Knopfler.

The Team at J. Rockett aimed to provide a compressor that works like a studio compressor, enhancing harmonic richness and evening out transients without crushing the entire spectrum.

Key Features

  • Blend Signals – The Blend knob allows for blending the dry and compressed signals together for full control over the compression.
  • No Limits – Enhances harmonic richness and evens out transients without crushing the entire spectrum.
  • Recreates a Real Fairchild Compressor – Recreates the sonic nature of a real Fairchild 660 Compressor like a real studio compressor, and doesn’t just act like a limiter.

How the Fairchild 660 Compressor Inspired the J. Rockett

The Fairchild 660 studio compressor is consistently regarded as the best compressor ever made. For years, the original Fairchild 660 and 670 (Stereo) compressors have been extensively used in studios because of the sheer quality. This inspired J. Rockett to offer that sonic signature tone to the guitar community!

Controls

  • Controls – Output, Tone, Blend, Threshold.
  • Tone Knob – Tone knob controls a Tilt-EQ. (Clockwise: Boost High, Cut Low. Counterclockwise: Boost Low, Cut High).
  • Threshold Knob – Threshold knob controls the degree of compression.

Compressor

A compressor is a type of guitar effect that reduces the dynamic range of the guitar signal by attenuating the louder parts while boosting the quieter ones. This results in a more consistent and even sound, with a smoother overall volume level. Compressors are used to even out the differences in volume between different notes or chords, making them sound more uniform and polished.

Compressor pedals typically offer controls for adjusting parameters such as threshold (the level at which compression starts), ratio (the amount of compression applied), attack (how quickly compression is applied), and release (how quickly compression is released). By adjusting these controls, guitarists can tailor the compression effect to suit their playing style and musical preferences.

Compressors are commonly used in a wide range of musical genres, including rock, blues, country, and funk, to enhance sustain, control dynamics, and add punch to guitar tones. They are particularly useful for achieving a consistent and professional sound in both live performances and studio recordings. Popular compressor pedal models include the MXR Dyna Comp, Boss CS-3 Compression Sustainer, and Keeley Compressor Plus.
