SSL Matrix is a SuperAnalogue 16 channel, 40 input mixing console with inbuilt signal router and multi-layer digital workstation control.
In use the SSL Matrix is simply the most elegant way to be creative with your entire arsenal of analogue outboard and cutting-edge digital equipment. Designed to be at the heart of your every day creative process, Matrix is built to meticulous SSL hardware standards, to withstand even the most intensive studio use. Fully equipped to partner your monitors, workstations and outboard gear, Matrix lets you shape your project studio around the way you work.
The Matrix SuperAnalogue router manages the sends and returns of up to 16 outboard processor units together with the assignment of the console’s channel strip insert points. Using the Insert Matrix control panel software, any combination of your outboard gear can be rapidly inserted into any of your console channels, essentially giving you the ability to run your outboard as ‘analogue plug-ins’ within your DAW.
SSL Matrix gives you comprehensive control over your DAW environment, reinstating the console to its role as creative hub. With HUI or MCU modes, the 16 motorised faders and channel controls provide complete hands-on control over your DAW mixer. Additionally, Matrix gives you access to transport & navigation functions, plug-in & virtual instrument parameters, and essential DAW commands.
