Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The SSL SiX is a seriously cool piece for anyone wanting that classic SSL sound on a smaller scale. It’s fantastic for singer-songwriters, podcasters, and smaller studios needing a professional summing and mixing solution without the massive footprint. That G-series compressor alone is worth the price of admission.

Frequently Asked Questions
It’s a modern implementation of SSL’s classic preamp circuit, offering similar sonic characteristics but with improved headroom and lower noise floor.
Yes, you can route external signals into the line inputs and use it solely as a summing mixer, benefiting from the G-series bus compressor's glue.
