Solid State Logic Super 9000 Analog Channel Strip

The Solid State Logic Super 9000 brings the legendary SL 9000 J and Duality console sound into a single rack unit. SSL’s SuperAnalogue™ technology delivers ultra-low distortion, exceptional punch, and the breathtaking clarity that defined an era of rock, pop, hip-hop, and R&B production at Abbey Road, Metropolis, Real World, Record Plant, and Avatar Studios. With dual mic preamps (SuperAnalogue™ and Variable Harmonic Drive), switchable G-Series Pink Knob (292) and E-Series Black Knob (242) EQ circuits, and the quintessential 9000/Duality dynamics section built around a high-performance THAT 2181A VCA, this channel strip offers the complete SSL workflow in 1U. Engineers like Manny Marroquin, Michael Brauer, and Tony Maserati relied on this sound to craft genre-defining records.

Key Features:

  • Dual Mic Preamp Architecture: Switch between the pristine, high-headroom SuperAnalogue™ preamp or engage Variable Harmonic Drive (VHD) to add 2nd-order valve-like warmth or 3rd-order transistor-style edge, with Input Flip routing VHD to line-level sources.
  • Switchable EQ Circuits: Choose between the 292 G-Series Pink Knob EQ (variable-Q with signature SSL undershoot/overshoot) or the 242 E-Series Black Knob EQ (constant-Q for surgical control), both with fully parametric mid-bands and frequency multiplication/division for extended range.
  • SuperAnalogue™ Technology: Ruler-flat frequency response (±0.1dB, 20Hz – 20kHz), ultra-low transient intermodulation distortion, no electrolytic capacitors in the signal path, and exceptionally low phase shift deliver unmatched punch and definition.
  • Complete Dynamics Section: THAT 2181A VCA compressor with Fast Attack mode and Peak Detect option, plus classic Expander/Gate with variable hysteresis and Hold control, relocatable pre or post EQ.
  • High and Low Pass Filters: 18dB/octave HPF and 12dB/octave LPF, fully bypassable or routable to input or dynamics sidechain for ultimate control over low-end management and sidechain triggering.
  • Flexible Routing and Processing: Balanced insert point (repositionable from input to output stage), dedicated external sidechain input, EQ and filters to dynamics sidechain, and stereo-link capability via TS/TRS connection.
