BRAND NEW SSL 2 MkII interfaces from Solid State Logic | Gear4music Synths & Tech

[@theaaronimal]

The input vs USB knob is SO useful and very underrated! Glad they kept it

[@TeleporterM11]

They look simply gorgeous

[@oli3u9zig_]

omg nice, i have the first Version and they ist fire

[@garyshirinian]

Thx for sharing. I own the SSL2+ at the moment. However, are the converters as good as RME ?

[@DoctorMcFarlandStudios]

with the price only being a $10 difference I would have just had the 2+MKII and been done with it. No need for the lower version.

[@mx_3110]

Need a rack unit!

[@ncyancy]

Nice but still no compatibility with the 360 software. It seems like as the ssl 12 has this function, this wouldn’t be so hard to do for these models. If you could get that to work then I would be interested in buying this.

[@mrgrinch]

it's sketchy when there is no price mentioned.

[@JohnSk82]

299

[@YattirSmith]

229 and 299

[@Tim_ArtistName_Tallent]

That intro song is fire where did you get it? / who’s the artist ? Thanks!

[@DanteWilliams728]

What is the price?

[@larrytan73]

they look great but, "improved preamps?" So, that means that the MK1 wasn't too good?

[@UgurSoygur-s3d]

While technology is so advanced, they still do not add an on/off button and spidif to these cards. The technical values ​​of the card are almost the same as before. I will continue with my Audient id24. I think it will be nothing more than a case change and a few component changes.

[@frankymino8773]

I agree. I have the ssl2+ mk1 and in no hurry to grab the mk2. ( Moto828 as my main IO ) Don't know why ssl hold back from developing a rack mountable interface with plenty of IO including SPDIF and ADAT. If they filled that void it would be an instant sale. I'm sure plenty of others would appreciate it. Won't hold my breath.

[@Barney-ii1no]

the amount of people that care or use spdif nowadays is very small

[@frankymino8773]

@@Barney-ii1no I beg to differ your statistic. When using outboard components that provide optical/spdif you get optimal performance out of external hardware. It becomes a must have on an interface. There's a big difference let's say when using a mic pre (if it comes with spdif) using it's spdif out instead of sending the signal out via analog. You really get to hear the best from the hardware and sounds absolutely amazing. You don't have to push it hard to get results. To each to their own. Some hardware components come with either an option to install a digital IO card within the unit or it comes with it. There are many many studios that use spdif and won't be going away anytime soon.

[@Barney-ii1no]

@@frankymino8773 yeah no doubt the quality is better but what I am getting at is that it is has not been included by them because I think from there perceptive they might see it as something that is a bit too Niche for these priced models, I think when it comes to more high end gear that are more expensive there is more probability of spdif being included

[@UgurSoygur-s3d]

@@Barney-ii1no I don't know how you can be sure about this, but most of my musician friends complain about the lack of spidif and standalone features on new cards. For example, I am an RME Adi2 pro Fs user and I want to connect SSL's preamps with spidif or ADAT. For this, I need to connect both the converter and the SSL, this is ok, considering that it works standalone, I need to enter the RME with a stereo trs. For this reason, spidif and adat are very valuable for users who use converters. I am sure that many people will agree with me on this issue and I don't think they are a minority. In addition, how much can a spidif or adat chip of Texas Instruments cost? I think this is like Apple iPhones still using 60hz screens.

[@axonathan]

no integration with 360?

[@zanza_the_rewolverine]

Line bypass pre amp?

[@lengwxiong0082]

I wish each headphone output had their own independent volume control and not share the same knob and volume for the SSL 2.

[@YattirSmith]

SSL 2+ HAS THEM

[@lengwxiong0082]

@@YattirSmith Thank you. I will check it out.

[@relinquishedfate]

Looking at purchasing an SSL 12, do we know if there's gonna be a Mark II version of that interface?

[@warrenlouie1408]

I believe the components of the ssl2 and 2+ were upgraded to that of the ssl12 so the mkii is about the same as the 12

[@dedessuslesmoustierjacques3459]

Lol.They should add more inputs and more monitors/speakers output.Better:why not create a DAW?Presonus did it,using or not theirs consoles.

[@foljs5858]

No front mic input is stupid
