Oxford, England - October 1, 2024 - Solid State Logic (SSL) proudly announces the launch of its MKII USB audio interfaces, the SSL 2 MKII and SSL 2+ MKII. Building on the success of their predecessors, the new MKIIs elevate USB-powered interface performance to new heights whilst adding features which help both professionals and those just starting their creative journey. Solid State Logic has remained at the forefront of music and audio production technology for over 50 years, and the new MKII USB audio interfaces are a testament to their heritage and understanding of what matters in music production. With unmatched performance, comprehensive I/O and the inclusion of the SSL Production Pack software bundle (worth over $1100), the new MKII interfaces represent amazing value, delivering SSL quality from only 179.99 ex.VAT / $229.99 / 219.99 + tax.
Your 'MKII' SSL studio
The SSL 2 MKII and SSL 2+ MKII interfaces are your new 'MKII' SSL studio - a complete package of recording, monitoring, and processing tools: Dual high-performance Mic/Line Pre's, dedicated Hi-Z instrument inputs, next-gen 32-bit/192 kHz converters and redesigned pro-grade monitoring and headphone outputs. Add the flavour of the iconic SL 4000 Series console to vocals, instruments, and more with Legacy 4K Analogue Enhancement. Additionally, get instant access to a range of professional-quality software from industry-leading brands, with the SSL Production Pack. Including virtual instruments, synthesizers, and samplers for songwriting and production. Premium channel strips, dedicated vocal and drum processing and FX to craft your sound, and mastering tools to get the absolute best from your music and audio. The MKII interfaces, paired with the SSL Production Pack, provide everything you need to create the vibe, capture the perfect take, and complete your sound, all in one great value package.
Both new interfaces feature significant audio performance enhancements across the board and deliver SSL quality at home, in the studio, and on the road thanks to their USB-bus-powered design, unmistakable sound quality and robust construction. SSL 2 MK II is perfect for individual singers, songwriters, and media creators, while the SSL 2+ MKII offers expanded I/O for musicians and producers working and recording together.
Next-gen I/0
Both the SSL 2 MKII and SSL 2+ MKII interface models are equipped with two high-performance SSL-designed microphone preamps, which deliver a massive 64 dB gain range and an outstanding 116.5 dB dynamic range. These ultra-low noise mic preamps sound amazing and possess all the detail and punch you'd expect from the world's leading mixing console manufacturer. Each channel also features independently switchable High Pass Filters to clean up rumble, and for condenser microphones, switchable +48V phantom power so you can record with a mixture of microphone types at the same time. The combi-XLR inputs double up as line-level inputs, designed to capture keyboards, synths, samplers, drum machines, or external audio processors like EQs and compressors. These feature a 117 dB dynamic range and +24 dBu maximum input level - making it compatible with all professional line-level equipment.
On the front panel, both MKII interfaces feature two dedicated auto-detect instrument (DI) inputs. These Hi-Z inputs, as found on SSL's larger desk-top mixers, allow the user to record guitar, bass, or anything with a high-impedance output and deliver amazing weight, detail, and texture to your instrument recordings.
The MKII interfaces offer professional-grade DC-coupled balanced outputs, with a colossal 120 dB dynamic range. The SSL 2 MKII features 2x balanced outputs for connecting monitors, whilst the SSL 2+ MKII features a total of 4x balanced outputs for connecting monitors and additional line-level equipment.
Dual headphone outputs, zero-latency monitoring, and more
Both units have dual headphone outputs on the front panel that feature high-current NJM headphone amps. These are capable of driving any type of headphone and boast a jaw-dropping 119.5 dB dynamic range, delivering all the performance and clarity needed for accurate monitoring in any environment. A 'Mix' control on the front panel allows users to blend between the USB output (DAW) and input sources for zero-latency monitoring. For producers and content creators looking to collaborate, the SSL 2+ MKII headphone outputs 'A' and 'B' feature independent volume control and can also be fed from different DAW outputs - perfect for creating separate 'artist' and 'producer' headphone mixes.
4K analogue flavour
The MKII series also includes the Legacy 4K Analogue Enhancement circuit, inspired by the SSL 4000 series console (often referred to as '4K'). These iconic consoles helped create some of the most celebrated music in history and are renowned for imparting a unique 'flavour' to sounds and instruments that pass through them. SSL has developed a circuit that distils the two essential characteristics of the 4K sound into a single design, resulting in a sweet-sounding harmonic distortion and a 'forward' yet musical high-frequency EQ boost - imparting a presence that world-renowned artists and engineers have come to love.
Fuel your creativity with MIDI I/O, CV control, and Loopback
For electronic music producers and DJs looking to take their live performance to the next level, the SSL 2+ MKII includes MIDI I/O to control keyboards, drum machines, trigger samplers, sequencers, and more. SSL 2 MKII and SSL 2+ MKII's DC-coupled outputs are capable of sending CV (control voltages) to compatible instruments and processors, giving modular synth users almost infinite modulation options. Additionally, both MKII interfaces feature Stereo Loopback to keep content creators and streamers in the flow.
Next-gen conversion
The icing on the cake is the next-gen 32-bit 192 kHz conversion, which provides clear and detailed recordings and monitoring. Users can capture stunning acoustic performances, and record drum machines and synths with more punch and texture, with all of the quality they expect from SSL.
Professional studio quality, front to back
Whether it is the professional-grade mic preamps, Neutrik Registered XLR and jack connectors and Alps Registered pots, or the exceptional level of performance delivered from the 32-bit 192 kHz converters, the MKII series offers professional studio quality from the front to the back. The new range of interfaces also features updated switches on the front panel with status LEDs, offering clear configuration visibility.
SSL Production Pack software
In addition to market-leading specs and features, SSL 2 MKII and SSL 2+ MKII come bundled with the acclaimed SSL Production Pack, creating a complete hardware and software 'SSL studio' setup - portable enough to fit in a backpack. Featuring a selection of must-have virtual instruments, plug-ins, samples and DAWs, including a three-month subscription to Complete Access Bundle, Harrison Mixbus 10 DAW, and more. Elevate your productions with the MKII interfaces, then fuel your creativity with the SSL Production Pack (worth over $1100).
