The pair of combo XLR/Jack inputs accepts Mic level (XLR), Line-Level (TRS) or Instrument signals (TS). Mic/Line switching can be
done from the front panel or via the SSL 18 Mixer software in SSL 360°. Instrument input can only be switched to via the SSL 18 Mixer
software. When working with Channels 1 & 2, when switched to Instrument Input, LINE will switch to Yellow to indicate it operating in
Instrument Mode, fed from the front XLR/Jack inputs 1-2.
Instrument level mode allows Guitars & Basses to be recorded without the need for an external D.I.
Inputs 3-8 + Talkback are found on the rear panel.
2. CHANNEL SELECT
Allows you to select an analogue input channel (1-8). Once selected, you can toggle various functions (+48V, MIC/LINE, HIGH PASS
FILTER, POLARITY INVERT & 4K MODE) of the selected channel on/off using the buttons in the centre of the panel.
3. GAIN
This control adjusts the pre-amp gain applied to your microphone, line-level or instrument signal. Adjust this control so that your source
is lighting all 3 green LEDs most of the time whilst you are singing/playing your instrument. This will give you a healthy recording level
into the computer.
4. +48V
This switch enables/disables phantom power for the selected channel. When engaging/disengaging +48V, the LED blinks a couple of
times and the audio is temporarily muted to avoid any unwanted audio clicks/pops. Phantom power is required when using Condenser
microphones or certain active Ribbon mics. Dynamic or Passive Ribbon microphones do not require phantom power to operate, and in
some cases can cause damage to the microphone. If in doubt, make sure +48V is off before plugging in any microphone and consulting
the user manual from the manufacturer to ensure correct operation.
Note: The function of the +48V button cannot be changed in SSL 360°.
5. LINE
This switch toggles the input of the selected channel between Mic and Line. Line-level sources (such as keyboards and synth modules)
must be connected to the jack part of the socket. The LINE input bypasses the pre-amp section, making it ideal to connect the output of
an external preamp to if you so wish. When operating in LINE mode, the GAIN control provides up to 17.5 dB of clean gain as opposed
to up to 67 dB when in MIC mode.
6. HIGH-PASS FILTER
This switch toggles the High Pass Filter of the selected channel on/off. This is ideal for removing unwanted low-end frequencies from an
input signal and cleaning up unnecessary rumble. The filter is set at 75Hz with a 18dB/octave slope.
7. LEGACY 4K - ANALOGUE ENHANCEMENT
Toggles 4K analogue enhancement processing on/off for the selected channel, allowing you to add some extra analogue 'magic' to your
inputs when you need it. It injects a combination of high-frequency EQ-boost, together with some finely tuned harmonic distortion to help
enhance sounds. We have found it to be particularly pleasant on sources such as vocals and acoustic guitar. This enhancement effect is
created completely in the analogue domain and is inspired by the kind of extra character the legendary SSL 4000-series console (often
referred to as '4K') could add to a recording. The 4K was renowned for many things, including a distinctive 'forward', yet musical-
sounding EQ, as well as its ability to impart a certain analogue 'mojo'. You will find that most sources become more exciting when the 4K
switch is engaged!
Note: the LINE, HIGH-PASS FILTER & 4K buttons can be re-assigned using 360°. e.g. You could change any of these to toggle the
POLARITY INVERT function for the selected channel.
