The Solid State Logic SSL 12 USB audio interface, a compact yet capable USB audio interface featuring SSL's renowned analog circuitry and components. Perfect for musicians, producers and engineers on the go, the SSL 12 provides pristine sound quality and flexible connectivity in a rugged, roadworthy design.

Legendary SSL Sound and Components

The SSL 12 leverages Solid State Logic's decades of experience designing high-end studio consoles, incorporating premium components and custom-designed analog circuitry for transparent, musical sound. With SSL's four unique mic preamps, the SSL 12 delivers an open, rich tone with wide dynamic range—allowing you to capture every nuance of your performance.

Flexible I/O for Any Setup

Whether you're recording on location or producing beats in your home studio, the SSL 12 provides all the I/O you need. It offers four mic preamps, four dedicated balanced outputs, two Hi-Z instrument inputs, MIDI I/O and two independent headphone outputs with level control. You also get optical ADAT I/O for expanding up to eight extra digital channels. With versatile routing options, you can customize the SSL 12 to work perfectly in any setup.

Intuitive Control With SSL 360-degree Software

The SSL 12 works with SSL's 360-degree control software, providing an intuitive interface to control routing, monitoring and DSP functions. The 360-degree allows you to create custom mixes, apply EQ and dynamics, set up cue mixes and manage all I/O routing with just a few clicks of your mouse. For even more advanced features, 360-degree seamlessly integrates with popular DAWs like Pro Tools and Ableton Live.
