SSL Duende Plug-Ins Go Native
SSL has released the Duende Native plug-in collection. Duende Native plug-ins are, reportedly, functionally and sonically identical to the now discontinued DSP powered Duende plug-ins, but run natively, in the more affordable VST/AU/RTAS format.
“The foundations of the Duende Native collection are plug-in adaptations of two SSL console classics: the EQ & Dynamics Channel plug-in provides an EQ & Dynamics processing solution with the power, precision, flexibility and signature tone of an SSL console channel strip… the Stereo Bus Compressor plug-in gives you the classic SSL stereo master bus compressor that brings power and punch to your mix without compromising clarity.”
In addition, Duende Native includes Drumstrip and Vocalstrip, X-EQ and X-Comp, and X-Verb.
All Duende Native Plug-ins are available for a free, fully functional initial 30-day demo and for ongoing periodic free demos. Duende Native plug-ins are available to purchase individually from the SSL web store (prices below).
Two boxed product bundles: Duende Native Essentials ($479; includes EQ & Dynamics Channel and Stereo Bus Compressor) and the Duende Native Studio Pack ($1,099; includes EQ & Dynamics Channel, Stereo Bus Compressor, Drumstrip, Vocalstrip, X-EQ and X-Comp) are available exclusively from SSL Resellers worldwide.
Duende Native is fully 64Bit capable in suitable Mac and Windows Operating Systems. SSL is offering every registered Duende hardware owner a free Cross Grade to Duende Native.

March 23, 2011 at 5:43 am (14 years ago)i paid $550 for the dsp. now you can get the native channel strip plugin for $329. And i can’t sell the dsp because i cross graded. I felt like i bent over to tie my shoe and ssl raped me.
