From Legendary Console to Personal Studio: Where the SSL 2+ MKII Fits
With the SSL 2+ MKII, Solid State Logic condenses its studio expertise into a desktop format for home studios and mobile production. This MKII generation introduces
32-bit/192 kHz conversion, built-in high-pass filters, and refined ergonomics, while retaining the sonic DNA, robustness, and simplicity that made the SSL 2+ renowned.
Who It's For and Intended Uses
Designed for musicians, beatmakers, content creators, podcasters, and engineers seeking a compact interface without compromise, the SSL 2+ MKII excels at recording vocals, guitars, synths, and drum machines, streaming, podcasting, or working in pairs. Its two independent headphone outputs and four line outputs facilitate co-creation, reamping, and multiple listening setups.
Features and New Additions That Make a Difference
SSL Preamps and Advanced Conversion
The two "two-stage" design preamps offer up to 64 dB of gain and remarkable cleanliness, paired with 32-bit/192 kHz AD/DA conversion to preserve dynamics and transients. Outputs provide a dynamic range of 120 dB, and headphone outputs 119.5 dB, comfortably powering reference headphones and monitors.
Fast and Musical Workflow
The Legacy "4K" switch adds the typical SSL brightness and presence, ideal for making vocals or guitars stand out right at the source. The 5-segment meter ensures secure gain staging, while Alps potentiometers and Neutrik connectors guarantee precision and durability.
Connectivity Ready for the Modern Studio
Two combo XLR/6.3 mm jack inputs accept microphones, line signals, and instruments, with a
switchable high-pass filter to control low-end frequencies at the source. Four line outputs offer flexible routing to multiple monitoring systems, and two 6.3 mm headphone outputs ensure comfortable monitoring. USB-C power and plug-and-play operation on Mac, with ASIO/WDM drivers for Windows, simplify integration.
