Solid State Logic has announces a comprehensive update to its SSL Live console range, with SSL Live V6 bringing studio processing tools such as Fusion FX and Path Compressor Mix Control, as well as allowing Sourcerer and Blitzer effect rack modules to be controlled directly from the TaCo app.
The onboard Fusion Effect Rack emulates the five key colour circuits found on SSL Fusion rack mounted hardware – Vintage Drive, Violet EQ, HF Compressor, Stereo Image and Transformer. SSL Live V6 also adds features found in the Fusion plug-in series. Meanwhile, parallel compression is now available on all channels and buses via the Path Compressor Mix Control, accessible directly from both the touch screen and hardware controls.
The TaCo app has been updated to give users full remote control over the Sourcerer and Blitzer effect rack modules directly from the app. The TaCo app provides wireless control of SSL Live consoles from iPad or Android devices and can be used anywhere in the venue or alongside the console.
The enhanced Dante Routing Modes in SSL Live V6 now include both the standard Showfile Saved mode, as well as a new Outside of Showfile mode. SSL Live includes full Dante routing from the console, and users can choose to store routes within the showfile or configure them as independent, system-wide Dante routes. This effectively transforms the console into a Dante controller, enabling management of system-level routing across the network. With Live V6, users can create Dante routes that persist after the console is powered down or a different showfile is loaded, ensuring uninterrupted system operation.
A new Dante Allowed Device List lets users control and manage which Dante devices are visible and routable on the console for use in situations such as fixed installations, where freelance engineers may be authorised to access the console routing, but perhaps not other resources that may be restricted.
The V6 update also includes a System Set Minimum virtual tie line counts, which streamlines showfile routing for fixed installations. Even if a loaded showfile specifies a lower number of tie lines, the system will enforce this minimum, preserving ‘house set’ connections that guest engineers cannot alter.
