SSL X-Delay
SSL X-Delay is a vintage-inspired digital delay plug-in, encompassing the sound of classic studio hardware processors. Brought up to date with modern workflow and features, the SSL X-Delay is a highly intuitive and creative delay plug-in, designed for experimentation. Built around four delay channels, each with independent tempo sync, level, panning and ping-pong controls, you can program each channel independently for boundless rhythmic delay FX. With independent control over each channel, X-Delay can traverse anything from tight, up-front doubling, vast stereo soundscapes, huge vocals, slapback guitar, cavernous delays and more.
Offering an array of delay characteristics, SSL X-Delay can go from dark and gritty, to shimmering in no time. Classic SSL analog saturation is included with the single Saturation dial to add grit and edge to your repeats and the Diffuse dial can take your sound from punchy and tight to expansive and wide. Augmented by global controls such as the Multiplier, Kill and Freeze switches, SSL X-Delay is an extremely creative and interactive delay plug-in.
SSL X-Echo
The SSL Native X-Echo is an echo effects unit inspired by the early tape delay hardware of the 60s and 70s. X-Echo revitalises this classic effect with SSL's signature sound and is brought up-to-date with an intuitive workflow.
Bring the gloriously warm sound of vintage tape to your productions. X-Echo models soft compression, hiss, and tape degradation with meticulous attention to detail. Combined with SSl's renowned saturation and LF/HF EQ, as well as advanced waveform visualisation, built-in 'De-Esser' and delay 'Width' control, X-Echo features a brand-new SSL reverb design that is capable of achieving both subtle and massive spaces all via a single 'Diffusion' control.
Deliver classic tape delay effects like swirling echoes and classic slapback effortlessly. The X-Echo is also capable of contemporary delays, so you can get extremely creative with self-oscillation via 'Feedback' or creative swells via 'Freeze' and 'Kill'.
