Vintage King Audio // SSL XL-Desk Overview

[@csjaugiedog]

Never thought I'd see SSL advertising one of their consoles with a Neve 1073LB installed. So much for the rivalry.

Know what you mean but you have to remember that this is Also a business

[@drakejaxon9417]

Ok! Ive been thinking for a while now that i would love to build my own 500 series console. Specially considering i work as an analyzer technician, building one of these wouldn’t be beyond my abilities, though finding the time to do so would be incredibly hard. All that being said its nice to find that SSL has already done all the work for me... i think that will be my next addition

[@rkellermusic]

love the HUUUUGE ground hum on the audio from a premier pro audio company

[@RiotHomeRecording]

This is desk looks great, and the price point is great. I really hope it sounds as great as it looks. There seems to be a lot more features on this desk than the api 1608, plus its $15,000 cheaper, it all comes down to how does it sound. Hopefully I can get in front of one for a demo soon! Great job SSL!!!!

[@gordonmillsjr.1957]

Why would anyone buy a new console?!?!

[@steletext]

Obvious counter: API the box...

[@johnbidochka]

Cool design, good idea!

[@netenemy]

Nice desk. I want one.

[@koreanfriedchildren]

This is a clever setup. Wish they make a 32 channel version

[@russellloving3242]

Are the 500 slots compressor linkable? i would assume so if they can be used for busses?

[@OliverChesler]

Fadi is great... he gave me a good demo at IMSTA!

[@Brandonmericle]

How do you know how loud your tracks are going to be if it's not a DAW controller, and there isn't an appointed VU for every track? Not that I could ever afford this, I'm just curious since he didn't mention anything about that...

[@MegaDavedavedavedave]

***** It will still be inputing to your DAW, so you'll have virtual VU meters in there, won't you?

[@robertstevenson3214]

Yeah, the same way you do now. Watch the meters in your DAW.

[@thisisyaren]

buy an external meter, im pretty sure you can get this setup with that because I have seen some setups online, check it out...

[@jessebhairo9751]

God I want one so bad!

[@calebneff5777]

This is sick, but man, I do not understand consoles.

[@InVisionsynthmindscape]

Veri nice analog console.

[@SixStringer09]

Great review. Now, if I can only talk the wife into re-financing the house.......

[@beedslolkuntus2070]

And there is a console which is 300k$......

[@sunahura]

Amazing

[@LeeDaHitman]

wow this is nice

[@ernieg]

give me some of that shit you are smoking .. stoner

[@gordonmillsjr.1957]

It's over for SSL - trying to sell a new "compact" console for 25k is total madness.

[@thisisyaren]

how so?

[@ernieg]

okay HOW MUCH?????

[@beedslolkuntus2070]

21,579.00$

[@BritoWorx]

$30k

[@JSprayaEntertainment]

ill wait for it to go on sail at guitar center for 6,000 L A W L

[@andyanderson6557]

I believe it's spelled "SALE"

[@vonbleak101]

Is this guy stoned? he muddles up and fumbles so much hahaha :) Not knocking him but i find it pretty funny :)

[@tekis0]

He's just a little nervous.

[@CRISISBX]

No DAW control or automation capabilities for 20,000+ is like buying a new car with no AC in 2014. smh! I don't know anybody who wants to track through an SSL... And I sure as hell don't know anybody that wants to mix on a console with no automation... Let alone an SSL with no automation. smh! If their was an automation/Daw control option this thing would be a hit.

[@MegaDavedavedavedave]

CRISISBX You don't know anybody who wants to track through an SSL? That seems mad to me. Maybe this is aimed at producers different in style to yourself. Personally I think this looks amazing. A cross between in the box and analogue. Track through it, then out put your mix across however many channels you want whilst you track some more. Who needs automation when you're working in the box? :)

[@thedeewolf]

+CRISISBX I'll tell u somebody...Dr.Dre.

[@robertstevenson3214]

You don't buy SSL's for DAW control and automation. You buy SSL's for the pre-amps, dynamics, and EQ's.

[@sweliam1]

Robert Stevenson Firstly, this doesn't come with any comp. Secondly, the AWS900 was extremely popular. What's my point with this? Obviously, people want the pre's, EQ's, AND DAW-control.

[@robertstevenson3214]

Yeah, both versions of this desk come with the G-comp. Maybe I'm completely ignorant, but why is no DAW control a problem?

[@draztiqmeshaz6226]

*low whistle*

[@Jenalgo]

Cheap and nasty faders. Plastic covered in chrome.

[@pvampman]

and for $50.000.00 this puppy ....CAN....BE .....YOURSSSSSS!!!!!!"....POW!(WALKINS VOICE)

[@amackclassic6737]

30k USD...way off charlie..

[@Lee_Rolfe]

Looks and sounds like it was recorded by a friend with a camera. For this much money, make a proper ad/tutorial with someone who knows it.

[@TheJoecoool]

$32k !!! for a name ssl not more you know how many 500 Series i can buy with $32k or $22k !

[@davegetsspam]

1st 30 seconds he just looks/sounds like a used salesman who uses..............
