• SSL launches BiG SiX Mixer With USB Interface

    Solid State Logic (SSL) launches its latest desktop mixing console, BiG SiX. Based on the SiX desktop mixer, BiG SiX is a 16 channel mixing console that features USB integration, processing and advanced routing capabilities.

    The console's SuperAnalogue™ design reportedly delivers the punch, clarity, and ultra-low distortion that engineers love from the company's 9000 consoles, along with a new 16 channel AD/DA USB interface. Also included is an 'Essential Version' of the SSL G-Comp Bus Compressor, now with an ‘Auto’ release feature, channel dynamics processing and a three-band EQ based on the SSL 4000E console. There is full source matrix feeding two independent headphone outputs, along with 18-channel analogue summing at mixdown capability.

    "SiX introduced SSL console-grade processing and workflow to a wider range of users, and BiG SiX, with its enhanced feature set and full USB interface integration takes this a stage further, providing all of the essential tools of a hybrid studio. BiG SiX sets a new benchmark in desktop mixer performance and we can’t wait to see how users enhance their productions with it.” comments Nigel Beaumont, Managing Director of Solid State Logic.

    In addition to 16 channels of 96 Khz / 24-bit USB conversion which the user can reroute to External Inputs, Stereo Cues and Pre/Post Fader options, BiG SiX also features balanced insert points on all SuperAnalogue inputs, full size 100 mm faders, Mix Bus Inject for cascading additional SiX and BiG SiX as well as dual independent headphone outputs. In addition to offering four SuperAnalogue Mic/Line/Hi-z inputs with polarity switch, the four Stereo Inputs can be individually switched to dual mono, adding further flexibility.
