X-EQ, designed with the help of top software developer Algorithmix, really is about as precise and flexible as EQs get. Well, to be fair, these are impressive plug-ins. By our calculations, if you wanted all four extra plug-ins authorised on the Mini you´d be looking at roughly an extra £1100. The other three are the mastering grade X-EQ and X-Comp, and the all-in-one Drumstrip processor. However, SSL provided us with a fully-maxed unit so that we could give you an overview of all five plug-ins. It offers a hugely powerful EQ, peak and RMS style dynamics (with the famous ‘over-easy´ compression) and flexible onboard routing.Īnother crucial part of the SSL sound is the Stereo Bus Compressor, but unfortunately, this is an optional extra for the Mini. Ported from the C200 digital console, this represents one important element of ‘the SSL sound´. This is the EQ and Dynamics Channel, which offers both the famous E and G EQs, filters, compressor/limiter and gate/expander. However, one of the compromises with the Mini is that it only ships with one as standard. SSL has gradually expanded the range of available Duende plug-ins - there are now five in total.
