SSL ANNOUNCES DUENDE 1.5 FOR MAC AND PC
Jan 2, 2007 5:55 PM
Solid State Logic has announced Duende 1.5, making Duende available to the huge community of PC-based producers and new-generation Intel processor-based Mac users. Solid State Logic will exhibit Duende v1.5 at the NAMM Show (booth #6905), Jan. 18-21 in Anaheim, Calif.
Based on the DSP technology behind SSL's C-Series digital consoles, Duende is a 19-inch rackmount unit that integrates console-grade SSL Channel EQ and Dynamics processing with a digital audio workstation. Onboard DSP, connected to the DAW via FireWire, runs the SSL processing toolkit, relieving the burden on the host computer's CPU.
Duende allows for a max of 32 channels of processing at sampling rates as high as 96 kHz. Key features include:
*4-band EQ, two shelving sections and two parametric
*Variable lowpass and highpass filters
*Switchable EQ characteristics between E-Series and G-Series EQ
*"Over-Easy" soft ratio compression characteristic for smooth transitions
*Variable process order routing
*Dynamics sidechain processing with independent sidechains for compressor and expander/gate
The Duende Bus Compressor delivers the punch and drive of the classic SSL Master Bus Compressor.
Duende 1.5 is available now for download from the SSL Website.
