About this listing
The SSL BiG SiX desktop mixer brings the iconic sound and features of Solid State Logic's large-format consoles to a scaled-down footprint. Built around SSL's renowned SuperAnalogue design and G-Comp bus compressor, the BiG SiX delivers the punch, clarity, and ultralow distortion engineers have come to expect from the 9000 series desks. With 16 channels of high-quality USB connectivity and AD/DA conversion, the BiG SiX bridges the gap between analog and digital, providing a hybrid workflow suited to today's studios.SuperAnalogue Components and G-Comp Bus CompressorThe BiG SiX's SuperAnalogue preamps, EQs, and summing amplifiers provide the open, rich, and full sound that has defined the SSL sound for over 40 years. The G-Comp bus compressor, with its renowned auto-release control, glues mixes and provides cohesion. Together, these elements convey the depth, punch, and width that are the hallmarks of an SSL production.Flexible Routing and Summing for Up to 18 ChannelsWith 16 channels of USB connectivity and two external stereo inputs, the BiG SiX can sum up to 18 channels of audio. Each input offers pre- and post-fade USB sends, providing flexibility in routing and the ability to print stems back to a DAW. The four mono and four stereo channels feature independent level control, allowing for precise balancing.Channel Processing and Monitoring Section from the 4000 ConsoleThe dynamics and 3-band EQ on each channel are derived from the legendary SSL 4000 console, providing gentle, musical equalization and dynamics that complement the SuperAnalogue path. The comprehensive monitoring section offers primary and alternate stereo outputs, mono check, talkback, and more—allowing accurate monitoring and communication throughout all stages of production.Precision Control With Full-Size 100 mm FadersThe full-size 100 mm faders provide precise, hands-on control, enabling nuanced adjustments to levels and automation. Their long throw and solid feel impart the sense of a finely tuned instrument, allowing for the subtlety and repeatability critical to high-end mixing applications.FeaturesTwo stereo cue feedsBus B/Mute switchingTwo fully balanced stereo summing inputsUp to 18 inputs at mixdownMix Bus inject for cascading additional SiX/BiG SiXFour SuperAnalogue “Money Channels” featuringMic/line level input/Hi-ZPhantom power/HPFClassic SSL Channel DynamicsUpdated 3-band LF/MF/HF SSL EQ (based on SSL E Series)Fully balanced insert pointFour stereo inputsDual mono switchingWide gain rangeBuilt-in 16-channel high-quality USB AD/DA Converters96kHz/24-bitAdvanced routingThree compressor flavorsClassic SSL Channel DynamicsListen Mic CompressorEssential version of G-Comp Bus Compressor100 mm studio-grade fadersClassic SSL response curve with large sweet spotLong throw, as found on large-format SSL consolesProfessional LED metersFast and accurate peak responseLarge 12-segment main/8-segment channel meteringDefined segments for +24dBu and +18dBuEssential version of SSL Bus CompressorBased on legendary G-Comp designNow with renowned "Auto" releaseTwo headphone outputsIndependently routable source matrixProfessional-quality headphone ampComprehensive Monitoring sectionSwitch between two sets of monitorsMono/dim/cutFlexible monitoring source matrixTalk backIncluded softwareSSL Production Pack ($1,000 value) includedThe Production Pack comes with the following:3 free months of Complete Access to all SSL and Slate Digital plug-insVocalstrip 2 & Drumstrip plug-ins BFD Player + Pop Essentials LE SoundID Reference from SonarworksArcade by OutputAntares Auto-Tune UnlimitedAmpliTube 5 SENative Instruments: Hybrid Keys & Komplete StartAbleton Live 11 LiteAAS Session Bundle Melodyne Essential from Celemony 1.5GB of samples from LoopcloudSpecsChannels: 16Sample Rate: 96kHzBit Depth: 24Stereo Inputs: FourHeadphone Outputs: TwoCue Feeds: Two stereoTalk back: YesStereo Summing Inputs: Two, fully balancedMetering: Large 12-segment main, 8-segment channel
