<b>SSL Matrix</b> is a new affordable small format console configuration that encapsulates a high quality 16 channel, 40 input analogue line mixer with a multilayer 16 fader DAW controller.
Designed for both acquisition and mixing, Matrix is pivotal in the integration of existing boutique signal processing in a professional DAW based project studio environment. An integrated signal router offers DAW style plug in management in the analogue domain and eliminates the need for complex external hardware interfacing of outboard equipment. On board Total Recall fully supports up to 6 SSL X-Rack Modular Rack system to further expand the processing and mixing capabilities of the system. More than 40 summing SuperAnalogue inputs, enough for a substantial mix. 16 Dual Line channels that provide 32 line signals each with foldback capability. Six aux busses, for complex tracking sessions and foldback requirements. Analogue routing matrix with reset for instant routing and recall.17 motorized faders with multiple layers for working with different DAW applications simultaneously over TCPIP via Ethernet. 
<br><br>
Matrix includes as standard, a fully balanced and resettable Super Analogue™ router to manage the sends and returns of sixteen outboard processor units together with the assignment of the console’s channel strip insert points. In addition to patch free insertion of outboard processing into the channel strips, complex processing chains can be created which can include single ended devices such as Mic Pre’s and Instrument DI’s as part of the chain. In many cases this feature will eliminate the need for any external patch bay and dramatically simplify integrating Matrix into the project studio environment.
<br><br>
<b>Powerful Main, Mini and Independent ‘Artist’</b> <br>Monitor Output for deriving a separate monitor output for headphones or a recording area. Five additional stereo Monitoring  inputs with SUM mode allowing multiple inputs to be monitored simultaneously. Stereo Inputs  include AES/EBU and Optical Digital I/O with on board SSL quality AD/DA converter. Analogue monitoring also includes features such as  SuperCue and foldback for low latency monitoring performance. 
<br><br>
SSL’s trademark Logictivity provides direct communication to XRack IO systems for Total Recall Management. An accompanying Matrix Studio Browser application manages Total Recall setups, controls the integral signal router,
and configures DAW control soft keys & keystroke macros. This is application can run on the same computer as the workstation software or on a separate Mac/PC.
<br><br>
All this means that Matrix puts the operator in charge of the process and the technology.

Single EQ Module for XRack

SSL's innovative XRack Mic Amp Module lets you piece together up to eight mic preamps of a classic SSL XL 9000 K. The SSL Mic Amp Module incorporates variable impedance control, phantom power and phase reverse. All of this circuitry is designed using SSL's acclaimed SuperAnalogue design techniques to deliver fantastic sound quality with very low noise and distortion.<br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">SSL XRack Mic Amp Features:</span><br><ul><li>SSL's Capacitor-less SuperAnalogue Design</li><li>Variable Impedance Control, Phantom Power, and Phase Reverse</li><li>Modular Rackmount Design</li><li>Total Recall</li></ul><span style="font-weight: bold;">SSL's Capacitor-less SuperAnalogue Design</span><br>SSL put the same ultra-quiet, capacitor-less circuitry in the XRack Mic Amp Module that they put in their super-expensive XL 9000 K mixing boards. With this capacitor-less design, you are assured that no matter how many XRack Mic Amps (or other SSL XRack Modules, for that matter), the units will remain phase linear year after year. This also means that each XRack Mic Amp Module is an identical copy of any other one, providing a uniform sound. The SSL XRack Mic Amp Module is the perfect way to get the classic sound of an SSL preamp section and take it with you in your rack wherever you need to record.<br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">Variable Impedance Control, Phantom Power, and Phase Reverse</span><br>The SSL Mic Amp module for the X-Rack is designed to handle the varied input needs of the project studio. Made using the same SuperAnalogue circuitry as the XL 9000 K console, the X-Rack Mic Amp module sports a killer Mic Pre with 75db of gain, variable impedance control, phantom power and phase reverse, line input with level control, front panel instrument input and High and Low pass filters - all in one tiny box.<br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">Modular Rackmount Design</span><br>By offering the XRack Mic Amp Module in a convenient, vertical rackmount design, SSL is offering an opportunity to piece together a mixed-and-matched setup combining any number (up to eight per XRack) of classic SSL Dynamics Modules, EQs, or Mic Amp Modules. This allows you to build your ideal setup. If you want three pres, an EQ, and four compressors, you can. If you prefer more EQ options than Mic Amp Modules, you can build it. Or if you'd like to have a 4-channel SSL Mic Amp front end with two classic EQs and two Dynamics Modues for post-recording tweaks, you can have that as well. With the XRack's modular design, you can customize the setup to suit your working style, which is quite an innovation - not to mention that all components that work with the XRack boast the legendary SSL sound.<br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">Total Recall</span><br>The truly amazing thing about the XRack Mic Amp Module (as well as the Dynamics Module and EQ) is that the XRack integrates Total Recall - an absolute first in analog equipment. Total Recall allows you to set any or all of the modules in the XRack, dial in your perfect sound, and then save the preset to one of the 32 flash memory locations. Saving presets was once territory only traversed by digital outboard gear and plug-ins, but the XRack from SSL gives you the classic SSL analog sound with the convenience of digital. Once you've built your perfect SSL setup in the XRack and found your ideal sound, save the settings for the next time you need that awesome compression or EQ you used on the last session.
