Now That Famous "SSL Sound" Can Be Yours!

Requires iLok authorization

Plug into authentic SSL sound! Solid State Logic makes some of the most sought-after recording consoles around. Unfortunately, most of us can't swing the price. Developed under license from Solid State Logic, the SSL 4000 Collection plug-in suite models the classic compression, EQ, and channel strip that made the SSL 4000 such a popular console. This bundle includes the G-Master Bus Compressor (based on the center compressor of the SL 4000 G), the SSL G-Equalizer 4-band EQ, the G-Channel, and the classic SSL E-Channel gives you the EQ of the famous Black Knob equalizer, which George Martin had a hand in designing, complete with an 18dB/octave highpass filter and enhanced cut and boost ranges. The dynamics portion of the E-Channel has a compressor and expander based on the SSL LS611E. This versatile compressor features an auto-sensing function, which will react according to the material; makeup gain is automatically calculated and applied giving you a consistent output level. It couldn't get much easier to get great sound.

Sweetwater Advice

Emmett Andrews
The more time I spend with the Waves SSL 4000 Collection, the more I need it! I now find myself reaching for these on EVERY project. The G-EQ is the most musical software-based EQ I've ever heard. As soon as you hear the G-Master Buss Compressor, you'll recognize the sound as the same one you hear on nearly every hit record. And now you can build your own virtual SSL console inside your DAW!
Chris McCown
I have tracked on a real SSL 4000E console, and this SSL channel sounds incredibly like the real thing! There's something to be said of a drum kit that's being run through the dynamics section of an SSL console; it's that signature "snap" that only an SSL can give you, and it's right here in this package. The presets are a fantastic place to start, then tweak 'til you get... "THE SOUND." Amazing. They did it!

wow!

so yeah... i got a call from Mike at sweetwater let me know about a few specials, we ended up talking about some plug ins i was interested in, he told me "you should check out the ssl 4000 from waves"... read more [+] i was worried about waves plug ins because they seem a bit TOO good and like they would take way too much processing power from my mac, he said they wouldn't and they would change the sound of my mixes, so i did check out the SSL demo from the waves website.... WOW!! what a huge difference! the presets are amazing, i had to tweak them a little bit and i ran about 15 of them plus t-racks plug ins and it used about 40% of the power!! using t-racks i was at about 75% or so... i'm buying them for christmas!!!!! try the demo at waves and you will see how good your mixes will be!!! soooo crisp!!! close [-]

WOW! Every DAW user needs this plugin! Get that BIG studio sound.

I have made music with computers and in small studios for over 15 years. I have never been satisfied with the compression and overall sound I got. I could never understand why my records didn't have '... read more [+]that' sound like the big studios. THIS IS THE ANSWER! Seriously! You will be amazed as soon as you put the G-series compressor on the vocal. Set it to 'ratio' 10 and turn the threshold down. Simply amazing! This is worth every penny. I use this on EVERY SINGLE song I do. I cannot speak enough about this plugin. This is the sound of music that you have been hearing for years. SSL is the one!

Go to waves.com and download the trial for 30 days. You will want this after you use it. Trust me. close [-]

Our Customers Say...

My Sales Engineer is the best. If I need it tomorrow, I have it tomorrow. He makes sure everything is in order and that I'm set up right. I've spent a lot of money at other places, too, but I don't remember them calling me to make sure everything's okay.
