The combi inputs cater to mic, line or instrument signals. The SSL 2+ is a two-input audio interface. But everyone’s hope is it can do so without sacrificing the no-compromise reputation with it. Naturally it follows that SSL would turn its attention to the other end of the market. SSL’s big-console salad days are behind it. It’s fair enough things have turned out this way – the appetite for gargantuan consoles sprawled across a swanky studio has diminished. A mini Solid Stage Logic interface sitting on my desk feels quite like having a pushbike with a Ferrari badge on it.
