Overview

The Solid State Logic X-Rack unit has been developed from the successful range of XLogic outboard equipment and provides a flexible solution to those engineers requiring a larger number of processing units in a compact package.

The additional space provided by the X-Rack allows the processing modules to be vertically orientated, providing a more familiar interface to users of Solid State Logic’s renowned range of mixing consoles, and makes it possible to include Solid State Logic’s Total Recall system - the first time this has been available on an analogue outboard unit.
