Solid State Logic
SSL or Solid State Logic as the company is rightly called, is one of the most legendary and world-renowned manufacturers of large recording consoles and equipment. For decades, the SSL 4000 series and the 9000 series have been an integral part of major professional studios worldwide, and SSL is the epitome of professional equipment as well as legendary sound and function that continues to this day.
With the AWS and DUALITY consoles, the SSL signature sound is very much alive, and who doesn’t know the legendary SSL Bus compressor that glues and lifts a mix to a very special degree? Today it is possible to get both Bus Comp, EQ and Channel Dynamics for the 500 series so that the SSL sound can fit into even a modern compact setup.
SSL has developed into one of the world’s leading manufacturers of analog and digital audio consoles and a provider of creative tools for film, audio, video and broadcast professionals.
SSL was founded by Colin Sanders in 1969, and has since expanded. SSL is still located in Oxfordshire, England, where both development and testing are taking place.
SSL equipment is synonymous with excellent sound, reliability and expertise.
