General

Boasting the powerful performance of 32-bit/192 kHz conversion and a 125dB dynamic range, the SSL 18 audio interface has been built for the future. Eight of SSL's leading microphone preamps lie at the core and, so every detail can be captured and dipped in analogue warmth and clarity, this unit also features the iconic Legacy 4K mode. All of it is fully supported by a flexible set of inputs and outputs, including DC-coupled line outputs and Hi-Z instrument inputs, setting this interface up for live projects as well as studio projects.

Flexible Monitoring & Legendary Tools

The dual headphone outputs are backed up by adjustable settings, while the extensive monitor controller, talkback function and classic Listen Mic Compressor hand you ultimate control over the mix. Add on the digital expansion options that are opened up by the ADAT and S/PDIF support and the external hardware synchronisation supplied by the on-board word clock, and you have yourself an all-in-one hub. The included SSL 360° software also provides a full set of intuitive controls, including advanced routing options, independent mixing and scalable metering.

SSL Production Pack Included

The SSL 18 comes bundled up with the SSL Production Pack, which includes a whole bank of plugins, virtual instruments and a DAW so you can't start work straight out of the box. This audio interface has been developed by the same team behind SSL's industry leading mixing desks, so you can expect pure studio-grade quality and professional, effortless integration, no matter your setup.
