Waves Expands SSl 4000 Collection With G-Channel

Jul 09, 2008

Waves Audio announces the release of SSL G-Channel, a brand new addition to its phenomenally successful SSL 4000 Collection. G-Channel is the fourth meticulously modeled plug-in developed under license from Solid State Logic, the revered manufacturer of professional analog and digital consoles. Now, with this latest addition, the power of the complete SSL 4000 console series is available at users' fingertips.

Waves' new G-Channel consolidates the equalization and dynamic controls of SSL G Series consoles into one convenient tool. The G-Channel EQ module delivers the characteristic pre-boost dip, pre-cut rise, and broad Q for extreme frequency manipulation, while the Dynamics section features soft-knee compression and limiting, a gate/expander and automatic makeup gain for rock steady output levels. Together, they deliver the one-of-a-kind sound and convenient routing flexibility that have made the SSL G-Series console a control room classic.

The Waves SSL 4000 Collection consists of the SSL E-Channel, the SSL G-Master Buss Compressor and the SSL G-Equalizer, as well as the new SSL G-Channel. Extensive testing reveals that the Waves SSL 4000 plug-ins sound virtually identical to their hardware counterparts. Experts who work with SSL boards every day cannot hear any difference.

For owners of the Waves SSL 4000 Collection or Studio Classics Collection with current Waves Update Plan coverage, the G-Channel is available at no additional charge.

The Waves SSL 4000 Collection with the new SSL G-Channel modeled plug-in is available now. It carries a U.S. MSRP of $2000 TDM and $1000 Native.
