SSL BiG SiX

BiG SiX is the realization of feedback from artists, producers and sound engineers. After its little brother "SiX", BiG SiX represents the next level of what is technically possible in terms of quality, function and format. This highly professional desktop mixer is suitable for ambitious studio recording, post-production, stage mixing or podcasting and can realize 18-channel stereo SuperAnalogue™ summing.

The four mono and four stereo channels each are packed with SSL history and impress with clever details that you can usually only find in large studio mixers: A slimmed-down version of the G-Series Bus Compressor, dynamics and EQ circuits from the legendary 4000E console series, and official faders with high resolution in the preferred control range. For relaxed working, the professional display instruments and extensive monitoring options, which include, for example, two independent headphone sections and the LMC+ Listen Mic Compressor. And if required, you can cascade several consoles via the balanced insert in the Mix Bus.

Last but not least, SSL has already integrated the highlight and one of the most important building blocks of your hybrid studio into the BiG SiX: the 16-channel USB-C interface with high-quality 96kHz/24bit AD/DA conversion. The converters are tuned to 0 dBFS = 24 dBu for optimal use of the dynamic range and can be switched pre- or post-fader for recording in each channel. For mixing, you can route USB returns to individual channels at the touch of a button. And desired overdubs are made easy with the variable B-Bus/Mute circuitry.
