Unmatched SSL sonics - Unmatched build quality
24-bit/192 kHz AKM ConvertersThe SSL2 interface is packing the flawless sound and unmatched build quality upon which SSL has built their admirable reputation. Featuring a pair of best-in-class mic/line/instrument inputs and 24-bit/192 kHz converters from renowned manufacturers AKM, the SSL2 brings pro-grade sonic power in a compact, desktop friendly size. The SSL2’s chassis is tough, sleek and easy on the eye, and is more than capable of withstanding trips to and from different recording locations.
The front panel provides a highly intuitive workflow with easily read meters and a wonderfully ergonomic aesthetic. Furthermore, the high-current headphone amp delivers precision monitoring, so you can be safe in the knowledge that what you’ve tracked, is the very same as what you’re hearing.
Legacy 4K button
iconic 4000 series soundSSL’s esteemed reputation stems largely from their award-winning larger format consoles, which have played their part in endless hit records and grammy-award winning albums. Notably, it is the SSL 4000 series console which has sparked creativity amongst generations of musicians, producers and engineers thanks to its indisputable analogue mojo.
The SSL2 delivers the iconic 4000 series sound into your own studio with the Legacy 4K feature, which, with just the push of a button, imparts the preamps with 2 important characteristics of the 4000 series signal chain. The very first thing you’ll notice is a musical, high-frequency EQ boost that pushes the vocal/instrument track further forward in the sound field, for a deeper, richer sonic profile with greater dimensional qualities.
For smaller format recording interfaces, nothing comes close to the Legacy 4K button found on the SSL2.
SSL Native and 3rd party software included!
Start recording right awayTo ensure you can start recording straight from the box, Solid State Logic shipped the SSL2 with an extensive production suite, including 3rd party software from Avid, Ableton and Native Instruments, and well over 1.5GB of samples from Loopcloud.
As if all this wasn’t enough, the SSL2 is bundled with dual SSL Native channel strips: Vocalstrip 2 and Drumstrip.

Drumstrip delivers 5 handpicked processing tools — including transient shaper, drum gate, high- and low-frequency enhancers, and the classic Listen Mic compressor — to add clarity, punch, and heft to any drum recording.
