Solid State Logic Super 9000 Channel Strip

Superior Punch and Clarity – Unparalleled SuperAnalogue™ Performance.

Super 9000 is Solid State Logic’s all-in-one analogue channel strip, combining the best of SuperAnalogue™ technology to deliver the modern SSL sound. First introduced in the legendary SL 9000 J and perfected in the Duality, the Super 9000 Channel Strip offers the ultra-low distortion, exceptional punch, and breathtaking clarity of our SuperAnalogue™ studio consoles in 1U.

The 9000 Series Legacy
The 9000 Series became the benchmark for modern music production, trusted by the world’s most influential artists and engineers. Seminal hip-hop and R&B artists such as Dr Dre, Jay-Z, NAS, DMX, Mary J Blige, and Nicki Minaj relied on its precision and depth. Rock giants like Metallica, as well as the Fugees’ Wyclef Jean, installed 9000 Series consoles in their private studios. Its sonic signature – clean, wide, and open with extended highs, ultra-deep lows, and punch which could knock you down in the control room – paved the way for the modern SSL sound.
