“The Rolls Royce of Tube Compressors”
– Jack Joseph Puig

Waves PuigChild Compressor recreates the unmistakable sound of the legendary Fairchild 660 and 670 compressors, celebrated for their smooth tube warmth and musical compression. Modeled with precision under the guidance of producer Jack Joseph Puig, this plugin offers vintage dynamics processing perfect for vocals, drums, bass, and mastering. Its intuitive controls and authentic analog tone make it a must-have for adding character and depth to your mixes.

Transparent Dynamics with Pristine Power

Glue Mixes without “Squashing”

As a bus compressor, PuigChild’s pristine compression opens up a mix. Many modern compressors constrict the sound with more aggressive compression amounts, but the PuigChild maintains its open sound, even with fairly heavy compression.


Modeled from Expertly Maintained Hardware

The original Fairchild units are incredibly rare—just finding one is almost impossible. We were fortunate to work with renowned engineer Jack Joseph Puig, who owns perfectly maintained “golden” hardware units of these extraordinary vintage processors, and supervised every step of the modeling.


Compression Like No Other

The original units’ sound is pure tube, and can’t be duplicated by any other technology. Compression takes place in the audio path of the tube itself, rather than being routed to a separate gain control circuit like a FET, VCA, or Opto compressor. The plugins impart that uniquely sweet sound—even when not compressing.


From Vocals to “The Ringo Drum Sound”

When set aggressively, the Fairchild was at the heart of Ringo’s “pumping” drum sound. But when dialed back, the 660 was a mainstay on the vocals of that era, thanks to the way it provided transparent support to the voice. Push the 660 or 670 hard, and they still sound natural.


Fast, Easy Operation for Superb Sound

Stay creative instead of getting lost in parameters—the simple controls make it easy to dial in superb sounds in seconds. Simply set the 10-step Threshold, and turn the 6-step Time Constant to control attack (200-400 ms) and release (from 300 ms to a super-slow 25 seconds).


Different Modes for Different Sources

Treat the 670 as two mono compressors, a linked stereo compressor, or mid/side (“lateral/vertical”) compressor. For mono tracks, the 660 mono version delivers single-channel sound, with half the CPU power.
