Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
This is a seriously impressive recreation of the legendary SSL bus compressor, shrunk down for 500-series format. It’s a great choice for engineers and mixers who want that signature SSL warmth and punch to subtly (or not so subtly!) glue their tracks together—especially useful for rock, pop, and electronic music where a cohesive stereo image is key.
