SSL 2 MK2

With SSL's next-gen AD/DA converters, punchy mic/line/instrument inputs, two professional-grade headphone outputs, and the SSL production Pack, SSL 2 MKII gives music producers everything needed to make professional-quality music in the studio. Providing the essential connectivity for microphones and instruments (with Auto-detect instrument DI inputs), SSL's Legacy 4K analog enhancement to impart that unique mojo to your tracks, DC-coupled line outputs for sending CV to synths, and zero-latency monitoring to comfortably capture performances, SSL 2 MKII enables songwriters and artists to quickly create great-sounding demos—all the way to finished tracks ready for streaming.

• The SSL 2 MKII is equipped with two high-performance SSL-designed microphone preamps delivering a massive 64 dB gain range and outstanding 116.5 dB dynamic range.
• The design uses a mixture of specially chosen discrete, low-noise transistors in combination with ICs to deliver performance far beyond what’s usually associated with a portable bus-powered interface.
• Both mic/line channels are equipped with independently switchable high-pass filters to clean up rumble, and for condenser microphones, switchable +48V phantom power, so you can record with a mixture of microphone types at the same time.
• The two XLR-1/4" combo inputs double up as line-level inputs, designed to capture keyboards, synths, samplers, drum machines, or external audio processors like EQs and compressors. With a huge 117 dB dynamic range and +24 dBu maximum input level, SSL 2 MKII’s line inputs are compatible with all professional line-level equipment.  

• In addition to the XLR-1/4" combo mic/line inputs on the back panel, SSL 2 MKII features two dedicated 1/4" auto-detect instrument (DI) inputs located on the front panel.
• Just like you find on a guitar amp, these Hi-Z inputs allow you to record guitar, bass, or anything with a high-impedance output.
• SSL-designed DIs—as found on their larger desk-top mixers—deliver amazing weight, detail, and texture to your instrument recordings, making sure you have the best possible sound to process in your DAW.

• Located on the rear panel, the two 1/4" balanced outputs let you connect your studio monitors.
• With professional-grade outputs, the SSL 2 MKII delivers 120 dB dynamic range, allowing you to hear every detail in your productions—from the most subtle riff to the deepest bass line.

• The two headphone outputs (same mix) are conveniently located on the front panel. These reengineered outputs (featuring high-current NJM headphone amps) are capable of driving any type of headphones, from small in-ear monitors to large-diaphragm models.
• Now boasting an impressive 119.5 dB dynamic range, SSL 2 MKII gives you all the performance and clarity needed for accurate monitoring in any environment.
• The Mix control knob located on the front panel allows you to blend between the USB output (DAW) and live inputs, for zero-latency monitoring.

• Underneath the gain knobs on both input channels, you'll note the Legacy 4K button. This feature helps you bring dull, uninspiring audio to life as you record it, doing so by adding subtle harmonic distortion and a high-frequency boost.
• Both are analog processes that take their cue from the sound of the legendary and classic SSL 4000 Series consoles, hence the name 4K.

• SSL 2 MK II features high-quality Neutrik XLR and jack connectors, and ALPS pots.
• There are updated switches on the front panel with 5-segment status LEDs, so you know exactly how your device is configured when recording.

• Featuring a selection of must-have virtual instruments, plug-ins, samples, and a DAW, fuel your creativity and bring your productions to life with the SSL Production Pack.
