Description

Wide, large, smooth sound.

If you're looking to complement the legendary rock 'n' roll sound of the SSL 4000 E, check out the super clean sound of the equally revered XL 9000 K – available exclusively for Console 1.

Developed in close collaboration with SSL engineers, the unconstrained depth and sonic possibilites makes it an indispensible tool for R&B, Hip Hop and Electronica producers, as well as for audiophile Jazz and Classical recordings.

Ultra clean

When the first 9000 series console was released in the mid-1990s, it represented a breakthrough in analog circuitry design. The sound path is entirely capacitor-free, in order to keep a perfect signal integrity and low distortion.

Ultra wide

Extreme bandwidth, minimal phase shift and super low distortion make this console perfect for getting the most out of your mixes in terms of width, depth, and all-around hugeness.

Ultra smooth

To bring creative use of drive and saturation back onto the menu, we modeled SSL's Variable Harmonic Drive (VHD) and included it as part of this desk. Tube-ish, transistor-ish, or anything in between.

    Unexpectedly great

    This almost never goes on sale, and after trying it out, it's doing things other Console 1 emulations are not.
