[@WackorMiki]

It is great to have reviews based only on measurement and solid facts and not about emotions about the actual interface or personal impressions. It gives a great overview of baseline interfaces. I hope more, higher range interfaces will follow in time. It would be great to chart out how an RME Babyface, a Clarett or a UAD measures to these. Keep up the great work. If I might have a suggestion: it may be useful to some to mention the AD/DA chip used. Okay if you open the unit they can be easily spotted but most users just won't do that.

[@Tryggvasson]

i love your tests. you always choose the most relevant products, the coverage is pretty complete in all aspects, and i especially like the objective, technical measurements part, beyond the self-bragging of everybody. plus the personal subjective impressions, which are always great to hear, on top of the cold tech part. you've just helped me choose my next interface - probably a motu m4.

The fact the volume went up to 11 on the SSL2 appealed immensely, also.

I first learned about the "11" setting in the manual as this, as I was waiting for my unit: "This large blue control directly affects the level sent out of OUTPUTS 1/L and 2/R to your monitors.

[@julienbenvenuto7475]

Thanks for the review, very instructive ! In a way, my first excitment for this audio interface decrease a bit, and i think that the Motu M2 is equivalent, or slightly better

[@alexbreyer6921]

Certainly could be a bigger bang for the buck. The 4K sound could be achieved via so many other options I don't consider that to be worthy of a higher price tag. The lower noise floor on the preamps is attractive, but when you heard the comparison of noise between several models, the M2 sounded nearly identical. I'm of the opinion that for most recordists it would provide a similar result given the same room and microphones. Both have okay and not stellar latency, but this is an entry point product. But the M2's DAC is either marketing hype or just offering a nicer monitoring experience. You'd either be in the same ballpark or head of the game for much less money. Frankley, this kind of product from SSL kind of bums me out. They could have done something that really challenged the Apollo Twin or BabyFace Pro for a quality desktop unit. Instead I'm thinking the cheap MOTU is the smart money for a simple setup.

[@kyron42]

@@alexbreyer6921 Motu doesn't provide any information about the ADC. The M2 has a better dynamic range than most budget interfaces so I would have thought they would spill the beans on the ADC.

[@emjdedios]

Danke, Julian! Very informative but never overwhelming :D

[@lassi6547]

It's nice to see this specific data. For instance comparing the Focusrite AIR mode and SSL 4K mode felt earlier impossible. Your data shows clearly that Air is more like a high frequency eq boost, but 4K is a boost + saturation. That makes it a much more useful tool from a musical sense, because anyone can EQ their recordings in post but the saturation is something more interesting and unique - at least in theory ;)

[@lassi6547]

Just upgraded to this SSL 2+ from my age old UR22mkII and I'm super happy with it. I would have gone for the MOTU M4 but they seem to be impossible to get at the moment, and I needed a solution. I'm VERY impressed with the sound quality of this interface. The 4K button really gives an audible boost of oumph to your vocal tracks. I found that using the 4K setting for some rock vocals made the track sound instantly good, crisp and gritty, and this cuta bunch of the post-processing out saving time. The headphone amp is ..just... powerful enough to drive the Sennheiser HD650 headphones I have, and these are 300 ohm impedance - this is pretty much the only thing I wished had been better on this interface. I love the two separate headphone outputs otherwise: so handy for having one set of cans for mixing/mastering, and another closed set for tracking/recording. One thing worth mentioning is that the included software is actually really nice: Hybrid Keys from Native sounds great and I found the Vocal Strip plugin is really useful and EASY to use for mixing vocals. So all in all, I'm super duper happy.. and not regretting I didn't wait for the MOTU come available. This interface has immediate taken my recording quality to a whole new level I didn't realize was possible from my living room.

Thanks for these videos, they are really useful. My impression is that there are only minimal differences (few db here & there on different specs) between SSL2, Moto M2 & Scarlett 3G, and if you have any 1 it wouldn't be worthwhile switching to another. Would you agree?

[@DystopianOwl]

Sounded pretty damn clean and nice without the 4K mode, and with the 4K mode, it went straight to be vintage sounding! I've worked on an SSL 4K console and this really sounded like that. I bet you thought he was being serious in the intro when he joked about the "full HD" thing :P Germans have a sense of humor too!

I upgraded to a MOTU M4 a few years ago and It was worth every penny. Led screen I/O meters are super useful.

[@_Trakman]

[@bohdane]

I just swapped to an SSL2+ from my M2 due to driver incompatibility on my PC, loved the M2 so was quite sad to swap, but so far I'm finding the audio in/out of the SSL feels a little more full. Though the M2 had noticeably lower latency for recording, across the same sample rate, which has been the biggest setback so far. That being said, the M2 being slightly more affordable is an absolutely incredible interface, I couldn't recommend it enough, especially as it feels more portable too, but if you wanted to have a more complete sit-in studio, the SSL is a slight cut above just in terms of audio in and out quality.

[@joshmcdzz6925]

It depends on your needs, but if one or two tracks at a time is all you record, I can't see a reason to buy the SSL over the M2.
