SSL XLogic - The Channel Strip from the XL 9000 K Console

The SSL XLogic channel finally makes that world famous SSL sound and quality available to anyone who's ever dreamed about owning an SSL console. The XLogic Channel features the identical DC-coupled SuperAnalogue processing as the legendary mollion-dollar XL 9000 K Series console!

The SSL XLogic Channel provides a bandwidth greater than 192 kHz recorders and a dynamic range well beyond that of 24-bit A/D converters. If you've longed for the sound heard on 80% of all hit records recorded in the last few years, Wait no longer. Add an SSL XLogic Channel to your studio and experience it!

Solid State Logic XLogic Channel at a Glance:
  • Super high quality channel strip derived from the million-dollar SSL XL 9000 K series console.
  • SuperAnalogue pre-amplifier with switched gain, twin-Curve dynamics, high and Low Pass Filters, and G Series and E Series 'Twin Curve' EQ.
  • Optional 24-bit/192kHz ADC card

XLogic Channel XL 9000 K Series
The choice of the world's premier facilities, the XL 9000 K Series represents the latest in a long heritage of premier studio consoles from SSL. Every year, SSL consoles are involved in the production of more Billboard hit singles than any other console. The XLogic channel shares the same acclaimed sound quality as the XL console from which it was developed. Four-time Grammy-nominated mixing and producing icon Jack Joseph Puig (John Mayer, Green Day, The Goo Goo Dolls, No Doubt, 311, Rancid, and others) uses the SuperAnalogue Channel at OCEAN WAY STUDIOS in Los Angeles. He is quoted in EQ magazine saying when he gets a vocal track that's soft, he'll quickly turn to the SSL. "With the SSL, I can really go in and get that mid-range detail," says Puig. "When vocals are too soft sometimes it's tough to make them sund convincing. But with the SSL, I can make them convincing."

SuperAnalogue Pre-amplifier with Switched Gain
The SSL XLogic Channel is a DC-coupled design, which is ciruitry that employs no capacitors in the signal path. Refining designs for many years, using the highest-quality electronic components, computer simulation and design tools, the SSL engineering team developed a whole new set of design techniques to achieve their goals. The result is an ultra-wide and flat frequency response, extremely low distortion and an almost unmeasurable noise floor. Another benefit of DC-coupling is a full low end. The preamp section. The XLogic Channel's preamp section features dual input selection from front or rear mic or line level inputs. The XLogic's stepped rotary gain switch allows easy reset of gain levels. Other XLogic Channel sections include SSL's famous Twin-Curve dynamics plug G and E Series Twin-Curve EQ.

Optional 192kHz ADC Card
The [url=http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/XLogicADC]Xlogic ADC[/url] card is designed to complement the extended bandwidth performance of the XLogic Channel. Drawing on SSL's acclaimed C-series digital console technology, the custom designed 192kHz ADC card offers exceptional conversion quality, with the flexibility to operate at multiple sample frequencies including allowance for varispeed and pull-up/pull-down frequency operation.

Our Customers Say...

Ninety-five percent of everything in this studio came from Sweetwater. My Sales Engineer is a lifesaver. I started working with him around 2005, talking to him about what my vision was for the studio. He was right there all the way.
