Duende DSP Channel and Dynamics Processor description:
The SSL Duende ("do-en-day") is a powerful DSP platform designed to serve up genuine, SSL console-grade audio processing within your audio workstation. Years of custom, in-house DSP development and recent advances in technology have allowed us to finally create a product that delivers the sonic performance of SSL signal processing with maximum workflow integration at an affordable price. Based on the superior DSP algorithms from our C-Series digital consoles, SSL Duende is not a modeled recreation of the SSL sound - it's the genuine article. Duende offers complete integration into the most popular workstation environments with one simple FireWire cable connection. The processing blocks appear as VST/AU plug-ins (RTAS support via FXPansion wrapper) - including an authentic SSL channel strip with filters, E and G series EQ and dynamics processing, as well as the legendary SSL Stereo Bus Compressor.
SSL Duende's EQ and Dynamics Channel Strip plug-in is ported from the C200 console and includes separate high and low pass filters, a four band parametric equalizer, an independent compressor/limiter and gate/expander as well as an
output gain adjustment knob.
The Duende Bus Compressor within SSL Duende brings the dual benefits of spectacular audio performance with a universally acclaimed compressor characteristic. Taking its sonic cues from the bus compressor found in the Solid State Logic SL 4000 G Series console, the world's most successful studio production console, the plug-in delivers a sound quality that has produced hundreds of best selling recordings.
Duende offers up to 32 channels of SSL signal processing and supports sample rates from 44.1kHz to 96kHz.
