The BiG SiX is the natural evolution of the modern studio classic, designed to bridge the gap between analog console workflow and digital flexibility. By expanding on the acclaimed SiX desktop mixer, SSL has created a hybrid production tool that serves as both a high-performance analog mixer and a premium USB interface.
Whether you’re tracking a full band, summing stems, or managing complex podcast setups, the BiG SiX delivers the legendary Solid State Logic sound in a footprint that fits perfectly on your desktop.
The Best of Both Worlds
At the heart of the BiG SiX is a seamless integration of analog purity and digital convenience. It allows you to route audio with the flexibility of a large-format console while maintaining a straightforward connection to your DAW, making it an ideal centerpiece for modern production environments.
Advanced USB Interface: Featuring a class-compliant 16-channel USB interface with 96 kHz / 24-bit resolution, this mixer connects directly to your PC or Mac without the need for additional drivers, offering pristine AD/DA conversion.
Flexible Routing Options: The first 12 channels are split across inputs and outputs with pre/post-fader switching, while dedicated USB channels handle external inputs and master buses for complex "in-the-box" processing.
Summing Capabilities: With up to 18 inputs available at mixdown, you can route stems from your DAW through the analog signal path, adding warmth and dimension to your digital tracks before printing the final mix.
Legendary SSL Processing
The BiG SiX brings the renowned SuperAnalogue™ sound directly to your studio, offering the same sonic characteristics found on SSL’s larger SL 9000 consoles. This technology ensures that your recordings are captured with speed, detail, and punch, providing a professional polish right at the source.
SuperAnalogue™ Preamps: Four ultra-wide gain range preamps are designed to handle everything from low-output ribbon mics to line-level synths, delivering a fast, transparent, and detailed sound with vanishingly low noise.
3-Band E-Series EQ: Every channel features a broad-stroke three-band EQ rooted in the classic E-Series design, allowing you to switch between shelving and bell curves on high and low frequencies for precise tonal shaping.
Classic Channel Dynamics: Add character and control to your tracks with the classic SSL channel compressor, featuring a program-dependent attack and a gentle 2:1 ratio that works beautifully on vocals, drums, and instruments.
The Glue of the Mix
No SSL console is complete without the famous G-Series Bus Compressor. The BiG SiX includes an essential version of this legendary tool, strapped across the main mix bus to provide the cohesion and drive that has defined hit records for decades.
G-Series Bus Compressor: Using the exact circuit topology of the original SL 4000 G-Series, this compressor adds the coveted "glue" and punch to your mixes with fixed 4:1 ratio and classic attack/release settings.
Auto Release Setting: For added versatility, the bus compressor includes the renowned ‘Auto’ release setting, allowing the compression to adapt dynamically to the material for a musical, breathing quality.
Mix Bus Inject: The architecture allows you to cascade additional SiX or BiG SiX units, or inject external signals directly into the mix bus, giving you scalable options as your studio grows.
Comprehensive Monitoring and Control
Designed with the user in mind, the BiG SiX offers professional-grade monitoring and tactile control that enhances workflow efficiency. From the feel of the faders to the flexibility of the headphone mixes, every element is engineered to keep you focused on the music.
Dual Independent Headphone Outputs: Create separate mixes for the artist and engineer with two professional headphone amplifiers and a source matrix, so everyone hears exactly what they need.
Console-Grade Faders: Long-throw 100 mm faders provide precise level control and a professional tactile response, allowing for smooth fades and accurate riding of levels during tracking or mixing.
Talkback and Listen Mic: The built-in talkback section includes the famous Listen Mic Compressor; a creative tool originally designed for communication that became a secret weapon for crushing drum room mics.
The Final Mixdown
The SSL BiG SiX is more than just a mixer; it’s a comprehensive solution for engineers and artists who demand uncompromising audio quality. By combining SuperAnalogue™ circuitry with a powerful USB interface and classic processing, it offers absolute flexibility for recording, mixing, and content creation. With the included SSL Production Pack providing essential software tools, the BiG SiX is ready to elevate your productions from the moment you plug it in.
