Oxford, UK, March 7, 2024 — After previewing at The NAMM Show 2024, Solid State Logic has officially launched its new SSL 360° Link plug-in, a powerful new software tool that allows users to control any 3rd party plug-in via the UC1 surface. By using 360° Link, music producers and engineers can access any plug-in within the SSL 360° environment and its ‘virtual console’ hybrid workflow. The software is available free of charge via the SSL Downloads Manager: https://solidstatelogic.com/ssl-download-manager
The ‘hybrid’ hardware/software combination of UC1 plug-in controller and SSL 360° software is the result of decades of console design expertise, providing a 'knob-per-function' control of SSL’s highly regarded 4K E, 4K B, Channel Strip 2 and, Bus Compressor 2 plug-ins. Now, with the launch of SSL 360° Link Plug-in, UC1 users have even greater control over sonic flavours by accessing a much broader palette of plug-ins, providing an almost infinite range of creative options when producing and mixing music.
"Integrating the control of 3rd party plug-ins and bringing them into the SSL 360° ecosystem has always been one of our goals," commented Andy Jackson, Studio Product Manager of Solid State Logic. "With the launch of SSL 360° Link, producers and engineers can now supercharge their UC1 by controlling any plug-in from the surface, all without leaving SSL 360°’s 'virtual console' workflow – it’s a very powerful addition. Best of all, SSL 360° is a free download, and available now."
