Solid State Logic Launches New L100 Live Compact Console

June 7 2018, 03:00
Solid State Logic had a big announcement to make at InfoComm 2018, in Las Vegas. The release of the new SSL L100 live console - the newest member of the SSL Live console range - now provides a physically smaller premium solution for applications who prioritize maximum sonic performance in space restricted installations, for sub-mix positions or corporate production. This significantly increases the market reach for the Oxford-based brand.
 

SSL Live consoles have earned their place on international arena tours, at festivals, and in prestigious installations and houses of worship around the world, gaining a reputation for superior sonic performance, fast and flexible workflow, comprehensive network-ready connectivity, and stalwart reliability. This new entry features the same high headroom, low latency SSL Tempest Audio Engine as the other SSL Live consoles, guaranteed showfile compatibility across the range, and all of the same I/O options, including SSL SuperAnalogue stageboxes (over MADI or Dante), local analogue and digital I/O, and Blacklight.

The new SSL L100 is an extremely compact surface, with a 12 + 2 fader configuration frame, retaining the same fast access layer / bank switching and Super-Q technology to ensure no channel, group, aux, VCA, or master is ever far away from the engineer's fingers. Users who require more faders can expand the L100 with the addition of SSL’s new Remote Tile and more screen space can be added via an external touchscreen and the addition of tablet control.

The 17” multi-gesture touchscreen gives access to all of the consoles' functions, and combines with Quick Controls in the central Fader tile to provide intuitive, immediate hands-on hardware control. The integrated tablet device stand combines with newly released version of SSL’s TaCo tablet control application functionality to offer an additional control interface for channel or Effects Rack processing. The Master Tile also provides Mute Group, Solo/Talkback, Assignable keys, and Automation controls. 
 

96 fully-processed paths provide ample capacity for small- to mid-sized live productions, and its flexible architecture means it can be configured with up to 64 input channels, 36 aux sends, 12 stem groups, 12 VCAs, and four masters. An additional 4 x 32 input, 12-ouput matrix is always available.

Every L100 path features a complete range of channel processing configurable in any order, including EQ, dynamics, tube emulation, delay, all-pass filter, and two insert points. The console's internal FX rack provides everything else, with a large suite of SSL FX, for up to 24 instances.

The SSL SOLSA PC app can be used for online control and offline editing and the SSL Live TaCo (Tablet Control) mix app provides wireless tablet control of SSL Live consoles from iPad and Android devices.

The Solid State Logic L100 live console is available now.
