Four SuperAnalogue mono inputs Four mono channels with SSL SuperAnalogue mic pres – 66dB of gain compared to mid-40s or 50s – provide the main inputs for the Big SiX offering you best in class audio quality. Thanks to its excellent design the SSL SuperAnalogue design gives you sonic character like no other. The ultra-low noise circuitry means you get perfect sound – every time. The wide dynamic range offers great reproduction no matter what instruments are in your signal chain. It features ultra-low distortion as well as great stereo imaging. It features Phantom Power to handle any mic you use with it. All four mono channels have a new three-band SSL EQ that may be independently switched between shelf and bell curves with different centre frequencies for each type. This gives you great control over your signals. The long 100mm faders provide you with accurate controls for setting levels. Integrated USB interface Perfect for use with your favourite DAW the Big SiX features an onboard 96kHz/24-bit USB interface that is compatible with both Mac and PC devices. The interface comes equipped with 16 premium-grade AD/DA converters which are used to process the SuperAnalogue signal chain. Channels 1-12 are distributed across the first 12 inputs and outputs and cane be switched using the pre/post fader. USB channels 13-16 route to/from External inputs and Master buses. Alternatively sends 9/10 and 11/12 can be fed from the stereo cue buses. G-Series Bus Compressor Taken from the SL G-Series console the BiG SiX incorporates the powerful G-Series Bus Compressor across the mix bus – perfect for ‘glueing’ your sound together for a cohesive production. This iconic compressor circuit features the same topology as the original design. Use it as a starting point for your mix or add some energy and drive to your finished product. It features ‘set and forget’ settings that are renowned for their versatility from larger format SSL consoles. The legendary SSL channel compressor Get the classic SSL sound with the onboard channel compression. You can use the compressor for a variety of applications from audio refinement to adding unique character and punch. Designed for versatility you can use the onboard controls to dial in your required sound. For example setting the attack time between 8ms-30ms the release time to around 300ms and with a 2:1 ratio; the compressor will work across a myriad of different audio content. This is just one of the three compression flavours the BiG SiX provides. Veratile routing options Professional routing and monitoring features allow you to take full control over your mixdown.
