SSL XL 9000 K-Series

Wide, large, smooth sound.

Clean, smooth, natural EQ

Extended gate and compressor features

VHD model added

If you're looking to complement the legendary rock 'n' roll sound of the SSL 4000 E included with Console 1 Mk II, then check out the super clean sound of the equally revered XL 9000 K.

Developed in close collaboration with SSL engineers, the unconstrained depth and sonic possibilites makes it an indispensible tool for R&B, Hip Hop and Electronica producers, as well as for audiophile Jazz and Classical recordings.

"It feels good, it's easy to use and it sounds good. That's all I care about."

SSL 4K and 9K in Console 1 with engineer Gloria Kaba

Ultra clean

When the first 9000 series console was released in the mid-1990s, it represented a breakthrough in analog circuitry design. The sound path is entirely capacitor-free, in order to keep a perfect signal integrity and low distortion.

Ultra wide

Extreme bandwidth, minimal phase shift and super low distortion make this console perfect for getting the most out of your mixes in terms of width, depth, and all-around hugeness.

Ultra smooth

To bring creative use of drive and saturation back onto the menu, we modeled SSL's Variable Harmonic Drive (VHD) and included it as part of this desk. Tube-ish, transistor-ish, or anything in between.
