Solid State Logic Xlogic Super Analog Channel
The XLogic Channel features identical DC-coupled SuperAnalogue processing to the legendary XL 9000 K Series console from which it is derived. This provides a bandwidth greater than 192 kHz recorders and a dynamic range well beyond that of 24 bit A/D converters. This makes it the perfect accompaniment to any high quality recording equipment.

Solid State Logic Xlogic G Series Compressor
Do you know the secret of how to give your mixes that finished record sound that you’ve heard on professional recordings for over twenty years? We do — and now so will you. It’s the center console stereo bus compressor from the Solid State Logic SL 4000 G Series console, the world’s most successful studio production console. Can’t afford the $500K price tag? Not to worry, SSL has taken the G Series center compressor, racked it, and added their latest SuperAnalogue design topology, to bring you the XLogic G Series Compressor. The ability to ‘patch’ into the SL 4000’s center compressor, and also control its sidechain from an internal sub-mix, allowed engineers to discover the amazingly unique qualities of this compressor for use on instruments like piano and drums, as well as its classic mix-finalizing capabilities. As a result, the center compressor was considered to be an essential tool by recording professionals, which created demand for a rackmountable unit, and thankfully, SSL responded. The XLogic G Series Compressor is a 1-space rack mounting stereo compressor that utilizes the classic SSL G Series center compressor design elements within a SuperAnalogue design topology. It is the latest version of the same compressor found in the Solid-State Logic SL 4000, and it uses the same classic twin VCA design as its console counterpart. Combined with improved input and output circuitry, this new unit provides spectacular audio performance with universally acclaimed audio compression characteristics that have provided numerous hit mixes for the world’s best audio engineers. A key element in the sound of many of these recordings is punch and drive created by the classic G-series center compressor — but we don’t have to try to tell you what the G Series Compressor sounds like cause you’ve already heard it. All you need to know is that if you strap one across the stereo bus of your DAW or console, you’ll have it too.

Solid State Logic Alpha VHD 4-Channel Microphone Preamp
The XLogic Alpha VHD is a four-channel analog microphone preamp with attitude. Whether you need to track pristine vocals, crunched drums or electric guitars on the edge of sonic destruction, the Solid State Logic VHD Pre delivers a powerful and versatile sound shaping tool kit - the perfect analog companion to your digital recording system.Based on the VHD (Variable Harmonic Drive) circuit from SSL’s acclaimed Duality console, the VHD Pre adds four SSL mic preamps to any line level DAW audio interface, transforming it into a professional quality, multi-channel analog recording system.The four ultra-clean, high-grade mic preamps are combined with independent Variable Harmonic Drive circuits that use 100% analog signal paths to generate rich harmonic distortion - adding SSL analog attitude to your digital recordings.Variable Harmonic Drive It may look like just another knob, but the VHD (Variable Harmonic Drive) preamp is far from a traditional linear gain control - it’s more like a time machine of overdrive characteristics.When VHD is used in conjunction with the input gain control, a huge variety of preamp sounds can be created, from gentle warming to serious distortion. At relatively low input gain settings the VHD Pre preamps deliver transparent signals with all of the sonic fidelity you’d expect from SSL. As the input gain setting is increased, more of the signal is passed to the Variable Harmonic Drive circuit, increasing the intensity of the effect from subtle to extreme. By adjusting the VHD control the distortion characteristics can be shifted from 50s valve-style overdrive (if the VHD selection control is turned fully anti-clockwise for 2nd harmonic distortion) to 70s transistor-style grit (if the VHD selection control is turned fully clockwise for 3rd harmonic distortion) or a blend of the two.

Solid State Logic Duende Console Plug-In Hardware Platform
Based on the digital technology behind SSL’s C-Series consoles, the rackmountable Duende delivers the complete SSL mix experience powerful channel and dynamics processing and the legendary Stereo Bus Compressor.

Trident Audio is a name that is associated with the Great British success of console design and sound throughout the world. Trident’s success in America, with such classics as the Series 80 and the TSM consoles, was earned before the likes of SSL had hit their shores. England, today, still leads the world in music recording consoles and Trident were one of the very first. From the design house of John Oram, these versatile channel strips and mixers deliver that seriously warm analogue tone that recent day products seem never to get close to.
