SSL 4000 Collection
The Waves SSL 4000 Collection was developed under license from Solid
State Logic. Includes three meticulously modeled plug-ins based on the
legendary SSL 4000 Series: the SSL E-Channel, the SSL G-Master Buss
Compressor, and the SSL G-Equalizer. This set of Native format plug-ins
sound so close to the original consoles, even experts who work with SSL
boards day in and day out can't tell the difference.
SSL G-Master Buss Compressor
Based on the renowned master buss center compressor of the SL 4000 G
console, the Waves SSL G-Master Buss Compressor captures the unique
sound of the original's IC input and twin VCA gain-reduction amplifier
design.
SSL E-Channel
The SSL E-Channel delivers the incomparable sound of the Solid State
Logic 4000-series console's all-discrete design and its Class A, VCA
chip. It's a slice of the world's greatest hitmaking machine, in your
computer.
The
equalization section of the SSL E-Channel is based on the renowned
Black Knob equalizer, developed in 1983 with legendary producer George
Martin. It features a High Pass Filter, Low Pass Filter, and a
four-band parametric equalizer.
The dynamics section features a
soft-knee compressor/limiter and an expander/gate modeled on the SSL
LS611E. Like the original, it can be placed before or after the
equalization section, and makeup gain is automatically applied to
maintain a steady output level.
SSL G-Equalizer
This four-band equalizer, modeled on the SSL G Series EQ292, offers
greater gain change than the E-Series EQ, and a slightly different
curve. The SSL G-Equalizer includes a pre-boost dip and a pre-cut rise,
as well as a broader Q for more extreme equalization. That's why many
leading engineers use the E Channel's equalization for detailed
problem-solving and mixing, and the SSL G-Equalizer to shape and give
character to the sound.
V-series
To most people, 2254, 1066, 1073, 1081 sound like random addresses. To
audio professionals, they are the numbers of hardware legends. Now,
with Waves' V-Series collection, you'll have the opportunity to work
with state-of-the-art versions of these "vintage" models which were
modified to capture the sound of consoles found in the world's most
exclusive recording studios. We're talking big budget sound at your
fingertips.
V-Comp
Using a fixed nominal output gain and time constants, the V-Comp
recreates the rich lush buss sound of the vintage 2254 hardware
compressor. This super-responsive dynamics processor packs a
recognizable musical punch heard on countless hit records. Its
controlled, gentle compression can really glue a mix together.
V-EQ3
Combining the best characteristics from two of the world's most
desirable console modules, the 1066 and 1073, this 3-Band EQ, with its
classic cutoff points and adjustable High-Pass Filter, is ideal for
mixing and mastering. With the V-EQ3, it's never been easier to achieve
the rich classic sound of the '60s and '70s.
V-EQ4
Modeled on the highly sought-after 1081 console module, this classic
4-band equalizer features detailed high frequency boosts plus High-Pass
and Low-Pass Filters. The V-EQ4 captures the characteristic sound of
vintage analog gear while providing the limitless flexibility and
versatility of the digital environment.
The API Collection
Developed in association with Automated Processes Incorporated, the API
Collection features four precision processors based on renowned API
modules: the 550A 3-Band Equalizer, the 550B 4-Band Equalizer, the 560
Graphic Equalizer, and the 2500 Stereo Compressor. Used by engineers
worldwide, on countless hit records, these modules deliver a sound like
no other. And, with the API Collection, Waves captures every nuance of
their unique sonic signatures.
API 550A 3-Band Equalizer
Modeled on API's late 1960's legend, the API 550A EQ delivers a sound that has been a hallmark of high end studios for decades.
API 560 10-Band Equalizer
Based on API's 1967 classic, the 560 10-Band Graphic Equalizer features
precision filtering and massive headroom, so you can take your sound to
the edge and beyond.
API 550B 4-Band Equalizer
Featuring four overlapped EQ bands, the 550B gives tracks that sweet analog sound that API is renowned for.
API 2500 Stereo Compressor
The API 2500 is a dynamics processing powerhouse that lets you deliver
the punch with absolute accuracy. Its dual channel design lets the 2500
also function as two separate mono channels via a single compression
setting.
