The SSL EV2 includes many presets made by Grammy-award-winning producers and engineers to get you quickly set up and make it easier to see what this plugin can do. The black one sounds cleaner and is better for vocals and guitars. The brown one mimics the sound and reaction of the older SSL4000 consoles and is better for drums and bass. When turned on, you’ll get the harmonic distortion from the original console, and when off, you get a modern type of distortion.Īt the very top of the EQ section, two switches give you two choices for the sound and reaction of the EQ. In this version of the SSL 4000, you get all you need to make your tracks sound great, as it includes a mic/line preamp, the standard compressor, expander, filters, two EQ types, and stereo enhancing features.Īt the top, there’s a button labeled “Analog,” which you can turn on and off to change the color of your preamp saturation.
