SSL Live. L500 PlusAbsolute Power and Ultimate Flexibility.
Three consoles one soul.
There are three models available in the SSL Live console range, the L500 Plus, the L300 and the L200. At SSL we believe that offering differently sized and specified consoles should not mean compromising on quality or features. All three consoles use the same Remote I/O, use identical audio conversion and internal audio engine technology. The combination and layout of Fader Tiles, Master Tile and Channel Control Tile varies but the controls available and feature set are identical. The consoles use the same software with identical architecture, routing capability and of course audio processing tool kit – so a full channel on the L500 Plus is the same as a full channel on the L300 or the L200 and they all offer exactly the same outstanding collection of insert Effects. The differences between the three models centre on physical size, available channel paths & processing power and available local I/O. The differences are so straightforward they are summed up extremely clearly in the comparison opposite.
