Description
Ultra High-Performance USB Audio Interface
Introducing SSL 18 – a groundbreaking rackmount production technology from Solid State Logic. Combining our extensive expertise in analogue and digital design, SSL 18 delivers exceptional audio performance with a studio-ready feature set and trusted SSL sound. Ideal for recording, producing, or mixing, it enhances workflows and elevates your studio performance. Welcome to a new era in rackmount interface performance.
Best-In-Class Audio Performance
Next-generation 32-bit/192 kHz converters provide the platform for SSL 18’s analogue design to shine, with unrivalled dynamic range performance of 120 dB across all microphone, line-level and instrument inputs – capture your sources like never before. Experience 125 dB dynamic range on the monitor and line outputs to hear your music with uncompromised fidelity. Need to work on headphones? No problem, with the unbeatable 120 dB dynamic range on offer from the dual-headphone outputs.
8 x SSL-designed Mic/Line inputs
The SSL 18 features eight high-performance mic preamps with switchable Mic/Line configuration, delivering ultra-low noise and a wide dynamic range for precise recordings. Its advanced 2-stage circuitry minimizes distortion while preserving the source's character, and the Legacy 4K Mode adds analogue saturation for that iconic 4000 series sound. In Line mode, the mic preamp stage is bypassed for connecting external gear. Inputs 1 & 2 on the front also include instrument/Hi-Z inputs for DI’d guitars and vintage synths/drum machines.
4K Legacy Analogue Enhancement
The SSL 4000 series consoles, known as ‘4K’, are celebrated for their unique ‘mojo’ that enhances sounds through harmonic distortion from various components like compressor VCAs and transistor mix amps. SSL has created a modern circuit that captures the essence of the 4K sound, injecting finely-tuned harmonic distortion and a musical high-frequency EQ boost into the signal path, delivering the beloved 4K presence.
