INTRODUCTION
Expand your studio with an SSL!
Solid State Logic are delighted to introduce its latest analogue offering, the X-Panda, built with the very same SuperAnalogue™ DNA as our AWS, Duality and Matrix consoles. SSL sincerely hope that you enjoy this compact analogue product.
X-Panda is a 24 Input mixer that can be used for tracking and master mix summing.
The purpose of the X-Panda is to augment any existing system. Obviously a natural partner would be SSL’s own award winning X-Desk. However, X-Panda is designed to work with any analogue audio equipment, the limit is really your own imagination. Remember this is a true expander in the convenient analogue domain.
X-Panda was primarily born out of requirements from existing X-Desk owners for additional inputs for a larger analogue studio system. When used in conjunction with an X-Desk it creates a 44 input SSL studio mixing system.
Initially the X-Panda may appear to be a relatively basic analogue console, however there are a number of design innovations that could significantly enhance your studio’s sonic output. If you take a short time to read this guide through, hopefully you will discover a few novelties, which may enhance your recording and mixing sessions.
You may wish to consider exactly how you will integrate X-Panda into your studio along with your existing equipment. Taking time to plan X-Panda’s integration can yield sonic benefits later on.
Some example system setups are included in the X-Panda Installation guide included in your package.
X-Panda can be used as an elegant and ergonomically refined desktop mixer or placed in a 19” rack (by virtue of the supplied removable rack ears) in a 7U space.
Like all SSL SuperAnalogue™ products, it is extremely robust, hand-built in the UK with an all-metal chassis and utilises high quality controls and components.
X-Panda combines a 24 input SSL SuperAnalogue™ mixer with the ability to truly “expand” the other equipment in your studio.
