SSL Adds Stereo EQ Module to XLogic X-Rack
SSL has expanded their XLogic X-Rack modular rack system with a new Stereo EQ Module.
The X-Rack Stereo EQ Module is a stereo version of SSL’s console Channel EQ. It features a classic SSL four-band parametric EQ for surgical problem-solving, smoother broader sound shaping, or more aggressive character.
The new module is a fully featured EQ with high- and low-bands switchable between shelving or fixed Q bell curves, and two mid-bands each with variable Q control. This stereo version introduces a ‘Selective Mode’ switch which enables independent switching of high and low bands and mid-bands between SSL’s E & G series console EQ characteristics to provide an even more versatile EQ design.
Features of the X-Rack Stereo EQ Module:
— Stereo version of the XL 9000 K Channel Equalizer as used on Duality and AWS consoles
— ‘Selective Mode’ E and G characteristic switching, which enables independent switching of high and low bands and mid bands between E or G curves.
— High and low-bands switchable between shelving and fixed Q Bell curves
— EQ IN switch for A/B comparison
— Rear panel connections on balanced TRS Jack
— TotalRecall™ status LEDs
X-Rack is based on the SuperAnalogue™ electronics from SSL’s XL 9000 K Series console, creating a modular rack system with Total Recall™ that delivers the classic SSL sound in a versatile form. Each X-Rack chassis holds up to eight modules in any configuration; with the introduction of the Stereo EQ Module, eleven different modules are now offered.
A selection of EQ, Dynamics and VHD modules can be combined to form comprehensive standalone processing solutions. Two different Mic Amp modules can be added to create high quality recording solutions. Standalone mixers can be configured by adding Master Bus, Four Input and Eight Input modules. The X-Rack delivers extremely high-quality analogue recording and summing path, configurable for studio or live applications.
