SSL Console EQ and Filters EQ-Section Based on the EQ algorithm of the SSL C200 Console family , the equaliser is a four band parametric EQ. The distinctive Sound that was truthfull y modelled on XL 9.
The High Mid Frequency section o perates over a frequency range of 600Hz - 7 kHz and is capable of ±20dB of gain with a continuously variable Q from 0.5 to 2.5. Normally , at any Q setting, the bandwidth of the HMF and LMF sections varies with gain, whereby an increase in boost or cut increases the selectivity of the EQ.
Special EQ Controls Filter Knobs The filter pots have an OUT position, which removes the filters independently from the signal chain. T h e L P fi l t e r p o t e n t i a l l y h a s a m a x i m u m frequency of 35kHz. According to the Nyquist theorem, the possible bandwidth of a digital system is 0.
SSL Console Channel Dynamics The SSL Ch annel Dyna mics Plug-In co mpris es s eparat e secti ons for compressor/limiter and an expander/gate. Both sections work independently , but can be operational at the same time, providing sophisticated control of signal levels.
THRESHOLD Whenever a signal exceeds the level set by this control, the compressor will start to act at the ratio set by the RA TIO control. This control also provides automatic make-up gain, so as you.
F AST A TT Provides a fast attack time (100 μ s per 40db). When off, a controlled linear attack time of 1.5ms per 40dB is selected. The attack time is the time taken for the Expander/Gate to ʻ recover ʼ once the signal level is above the threshold.
SSL Console Bus Compressor The SSL Console Bus Compressor plug-in is a stereo version of the legendary centre section bus compressor found on the XL 9000K Series console. It provides high quality stereo compression, giving you critical control over the dynamic range of audio signals.
RELEASE Five switchable ranges 0.1, 0.3, 0.6, 1.2 seconds and ʻ Auto ʼ . (With Auto selected, the release time is dependant upon the duration of signal peaks). Determines the time it takes for the compressor module to ʻ recover ʼ , once the incoming signal level is becoming lower .
