SSL SiX Desktop Mixer - Nearly New

Full Description

True analog path way

Thanks to its excellent design, the SSL SuperAnalogue design gives you sonic character like no other. The ultra-low noise circuitry means you get perfect sound - every time. The wide dynamic range offers great reproduction no matter what instruments are in your signal chain. It features ultra-low distortion as well as great stereo imaging.

Two incredible sounding mono inputs

Two mono channels with SSL SuperAnalogue mic pres - 66dB of gain compared to mid-40s or 50's - provide the main inputs for the SiX offering you best in class audio quality. It features Phantom Power to handle any mic you use with it. Both mono channels have a new two-band SSL EQ that may be independently switched between shelf and bell curves, with different centre frequencies for each type. This gives you great control over your signals.

The long 100mm faders provide you with accurate controls for setting levels. Send these two channels to your DAW for adding different effects - your plug-in suite is just a route away. ALTernate input switch - which can source 2 extra mono channels from a connector at the rear. It features a completely balanced signal path - Everything except the headphone jack is fully balanced.

Great for your line inputs

Two stereo input channels with -10/+20 trim for line sources such as guitars, synths, drum machines, and outputs from sound cards. The line input also has 100m faders for brilliant accuracy across the board. ALT inputs offer up to 12 channels that can be summed into the main mix bus.

Route however you want

Professional routing and monitoring features allow you to take full control over your mix down. These routing paths are taken directly from the larger SSL consoles. The Master section includes main and alt monitor outputs with mono check, dim and out. Giving you deep control over your output. The fader channels all have proper PFL and mute. Use Bus B to send to DAW. It even comes with a talkback mic input with Phantom Power to help you keep in touch with your talent.
