The SSL E-Channel is a channel strip plugin modeled after the SSL 4000 E Series console, combining a soft-knee compressor/limiter with an expander/gate and the classic 'Black Knob' 242 four-band EQ. It delivers the trademark SSL punchy character with program-dependent dynamics and flexible EQ routing, allowing engineers to achieve the sound of hardware SSL consoles in the digital domain.
