Ssl BUS+
ABOUT THE PRODUCT
If there is one piece of analogue processing equipment that is synonymous with SSL, it is the SSL bus compressor. From the very first SSL 4000B console released in 1976 and through the many generations of SSL consoles that have followed, the bus compressor has been the mainstay of the console's central section. For many of the world's top engineers and producers, the bus compressor remains the most widely used processing tool to give mixes a richer, fuller sound, with the dynamism and energy of SSL's legendary 'glue and punch'.
FEATURES
- 100% analogue circuitry, digitally controlled via front panel notched potentiometers
- huge headroom of +27.5 dBu
- Configurable processing order - Pre-D-EQ (default) or Post-D-EQ bus compressor
- CH 1 IN and CH 2 IN buttons for global bypass of each channel
- Configurable operating level - 0 dB (nominal), +10 dB, or -5 dB
- Sleep and Auto-Sleep modes to prevent inadvertent continuous operation
- MAKE-UP control gain precisely controlled via MDAC with 2 ranges: 0.5 or 1 dB steps
- Connections: 2 XLR inputs, 2 XLR external returns, 2 XLR outputs, 2 XLR external sends
- 19' 2U rackmount format
- Weight and dimensions: 5.92 kg, 480 x 88.9 x 303 mm
Bus Compressor
- 4 operating modes: Classic Stereo, ? S/C Stereo, Dual Mono or Mid-Side
- Inputs/outputs for external sidechain
- The genuine Bus Compressor circuit
- LOW THD mode: reduces high frequency distortion caused by compression
- F/B mode: changes the compression characteristics for a more "relaxed" compression style
- 4K Mode: Single VCA operation with variable harmonic distortion to bring some SSL4000 Bus Compressor grain to the mix.
- Negative ratios - for creative pump effects and control of strong signals
- New attack and release capabilities, including the new 'Auto 2' parameter
- MIX control for instant parallel compression
- Moving coil gain reducers
- Lockable transient expander
D-EQ
- Powerful 2-band parallel analogue dynamic EQ
- Compression/expansion mode
- 3 choices of time constants per band - Nominal, Fast or Auto
- 16 selectable frequency points per band
- Adjustable range control per band from 0.5 dB to 15 dB
- HF band can be bell-switched, with selectable frequencies covering the upper midrange and treble.
- Static gain of the frequency band "Make Up" for LF and HF bands (Stereo/ ? S/C Stereo) or LF band (Dual Mono/Mid-Side)
- G-Series mode changes the LF filter to 2nd order with a degree of under/override
- Tricolour LEDs indicate D-EQ activity
- Individually bypassable bands
