Channel Strip Sale – Until April 30, 2026
Drumstrip
SSL Native Drumstrip is a dedicated drum processing channel strip built on SSL’s legendary analog circuitry heritage. It delivers a comprehensive, purpose-built signal chain for drum tracks, combining transient shaping, multi-band dynamics, filtering, and EQ in a single interface — everything a drum engineer needs without jumping between multiple plugins.
- Transient Shaper — Controls the attack and sustain of drum hits independently, letting you punch up the attack of a snare or tighten a boomy kick without affecting the rest of the signal.
- Multi-band Gate/Expander — Frequency-selective gating that keeps bleed from contaminating the target drum sound while retaining natural room tone where needed.
- SSL-style EQ — Classic SSL equalizer curves optimized for drum material, with the musical response SSL consoles are known for.
- High-Pass and Low-Pass Filters — Clean the mix without coloring the tone, keeping drum tracks sitting properly in the full mix.

Guitarstrip
SSL Guitarstrip is an all-in-one processing channel strip designed specifically for electric guitar, acoustic guitar, and bass. It combines four dedicated processing modules in a single interface — covering tonal shaping, compression, drive, and phase correction — making it equally useful at the tracking and mixing stages.
- Drive Module — Two classic drive circuit models offering subtle harmonic enhancement or more aggressive saturation, adding the characteristic warmth that SSL hardware is known for.
- EQ Module — Guitar-optimized SSL equalization with carefully chosen frequency centers for cutting through the mix or adding body to acoustic guitars and bass.
- Compressor/Limiter — Responsive dynamics control with musical SSL-style compression characteristics, keeping guitar performances controlled without killing their natural dynamics.
- Phase Corrector — Corrects phase issues common in multi-mic guitar and bass setups, addressing comb filtering and ensuring recordings sit cleanly in the mix.

Vocalstrip 2
SSL Native Vocalstrip 2 is a dedicated vocal processing channel strip that brings SSL’s studio-grade signal chain to your vocal tracks. Designed to solve the most common vocal challenges — from sibilance and proximity effects to dynamics control and harmonic enhancement — it provides a complete vocal production toolkit in one plugin.
- De-Esser — SSL’s precision de-essing circuit targets harsh sibilance without the dulling effect that cheaper de-essers can introduce, preserving the air and clarity of the vocal.
- Compander (Compressor/Expander) — Combines compression and expansion in a single module, controlling dynamics while using the expander to reduce breath noise and room sound between phrases.
- EQ — SSL vocal EQ with gentle, musical curves designed specifically for the human voice, from low-end warmth control to high-frequency presence and air.
- Transient Shaper — Shapes the attack of consonants and the sustain of vowel sounds, giving precise control over the punch and body of each vocal performance.

SSL Fusion Bundle – Hardware Emulations on Sale
The SSL Fusion Bundle contains five plugins based directly on the processing circuits found in SSL’s Fusion hardware unit — a high-end analog outboard processor used in professional studios worldwide. Each plugin emulates a specific module from the Fusion hardware, allowing you to apply the same analog character to your DAW sessions. All five Fusion plugins are included in the bundle at a discounted price.

Fusion Violet EQ
SSL Fusion Violet EQ emulates the passive high-frequency EQ circuit from the SSL Fusion hardware. The Violet EQ is named for the color of its circuit board and is renowned for adding gentle, musical air and presence to buses and masters without harshness. It excels on stereo mixes and buses where you need to open up the high end without the aggressive coloration of active EQ designs.

Fusion Vintage Drive
SSL Fusion Vintage Drive emulates the harmonic saturation circuit from the SSL Fusion hardware. It adds subtle to moderate analog-style harmonic distortion that thickens and adds density to stereo mixes and individual buses. The saturation is musical and smooth — similar to pushing an analog console or tape machine — making it ideal for adding warmth and glue to a final mix without obvious distortion artifacts.

Fusion HF Compressor
SSL Fusion HF Compressor emulates the high-frequency compressor circuit from the SSL Fusion hardware. Unlike a broadband compressor, the HF Compressor works specifically on the high-frequency content of your mix — gently controlling harsh or overly bright transients in the top end while leaving the low and mid content untouched. The result is a mix that sounds controlled and polished in the high end without losing energy or air.

Fusion Stereo Image
SSL Fusion Stereo Image emulates the stereo width control circuit from the SSL Fusion hardware. It allows precise control over the width of the stereo image — from mono through natural stereo to enhanced width — using analog-style processing rather than digital matrix tricks. The result is a wider, more immersive stereo field that translates well across different playback systems without phase issues or mono compatibility problems.

Fusion Transformer
SSL Fusion Transformer emulates the transformer saturation circuit from the SSL Fusion hardware. Transformers are a core element of the analog sound — they add a specific type of low-frequency density and harmonic coloration that makes records feel physical and powerful. The Fusion Transformer plugin captures this characteristic, adding weight and body to stereo mixes and buses, particularly in the low-mid frequency range where digital recordings can sound thin compared to analog.
