Used SSL BiG SiX: studio console for mix and hybrid recording
Solid State Logic BiG SiX (Used) is a studio mixing console that combines the workflow and sound quality of large SSL consoles with full USB integration, with additional processing and flexible routing: an all-in-one solution designed for those working between the analog world and DAWs in recording, mixing and production contexts.
SuperAnalogue™: SSL-style punch, detail and headroom
The SuperAnalogue™ design aims to deliver extremely clean response and ultra-low distortion, with a solid, defined sound typical of the SSL approach. The result is a mixer that lends itself to both recording (mic, line, and instrument sources) and summing and mixdown, while maintaining a professional feel.
Channel strip and processing: dynamics and EQ inspired by the E series
Four main channels with Mic/Line/Hi-Z, HPF and balanced insert
The four mono SuperAnalogue™ channels include Mic/Line/Hi-Z input, phantom power and HPF, plus a fully balanced insert point to integrate external outboards neatly into your workflow.
Three-band EQ and SSL-style dynamics
Each main channel integrates dynamics processor and updated three-band LF/MF/HF EQ, based on the iconic SSL setting, to quickly sculpt sources without interrupting creativity.
USB interface and routing: total integration with DAW
BiG SiX includes 16 USB channels with high-quality A/D and D/A conversion (up to 96 kHz / 24-bit) and advanced routing, to handle multitrack recording, playback from DAW and hardware returns with ease. It is the ideal foundation for a compact yet complete hybrid production setup.
SSL bus compressor and mix functions: SSL glue on your master
Essential G-Comp with "Auto" option
On board you'll find an essential version of the legendary SSL G-Comp Bus Compressor, with the addition of "Auto" mode , perfect for gaining dynamic control and cohesion on the mix bus with fast, musical setup.
Analog summing of up to 18 channels + cascade with SiX/BiG SiX
The mixdown section allows up to 18 inputs in analog summing, with the possibility of mix bus inject to cascade an SiX/BiG SiX, expanding the setup without giving up control.
Monitoring, headphones and metering: total control in the studio
The monitoring section is comprehensive: switch between two sets of monitors, mono/dim/cut, talkback, two stereo cue feeds and flexible source assignments. Two headphone outputs with independent source matrix and a professional LED metering system (12-segment main meter and 8-segment channel metering) complete the package.
