Channel Strip

SSL G-Channel

Waves

The SSL G-Channel is a channel strip plugin modeled after the SL4000 G Series console, combining a soft-knee compressor/limiter with an expander/gate and the 383 G EQ. It delivers the trademark SSL 'punchy' sound through faithful emulation of classic analog dynamics and four-band parametric EQ, enabling mix-in-the-box workflows that capture the character of legendary SSL hardware.

Key Features
