Solid State Logic SSL 12 12x8 USB Audio Interface
The SSL 12 is a USB bus-powered 12-in/8-out audio interface that allows you to achieve studio-quality audio in and out of your computer, with minimal effort and maximum creativity. The SSL 12 builds on the success of SSL 2 and SSL 2+ and offers even more. More I/O, more power, more versatility. SSL 12 is fully integrated with SSL 360° software (SSL Control Room)- where you can assign monitor controls, create multiple independent headphone mixes, select Loopback source, customize the three user buttons on the front panel, and much more. SSL 12 offers a combination of professional features and workflows never before seen in a portable desktop interface.
CLASS-LEADING PERFORMANCE, IN THE STUDIO AND ON THE ROAD.
The Legacy 4K button injects a musical high end boost, along with a controlled amount of finely dialed harmonic distortion. The perfect tool for adding character, colour, and bite to vocals and instruments.
