AES3 Outputs

The 64 audio channels de-embedded from the four SDI inputs are available as 32 AES-3 digital audio outputs on the rear panel 37-way female Dsub connector. The outputs are 75 unbalanced as per AES3-4-2009, Annex D. The table below gives the pinout:

Note:

Each AES3 output carries 2 audio channels, thus the 16 audio channels embedded in each SDI input generate 8 AES3 outputs.

To aid installation, an optional AES Signal Break Out accessory (ASBO) is available from SSL. This consists of a 1U 19” panel with 32 BNC sockets, prewired to a 37-way Dsub plug. This may be mounted at the front or rear of the rack and greatly simplifies wiring.

1266 specifications

The Solid State Logic 1266 is a premium analog channel strip renowned for its versatility and high-quality audio processing. This channel strip combines sophisticated features, advanced technologies, and the renowned SSL sound, making it a favorite among audio engineers and producers.

One of the standout features of the SSL 1266 is its classic SSL EQ, which boasts four bands of equalization. Each band offers selectable frequency ranges, allowing users to perform precise tonal adjustments. The high and low bands can operate as shelving or peak filters, providing flexibility in shaping sound. This powerful EQ section is complemented by a dynamic section, which includes an LED-level meter and a compressor/limiter. The compressor is characterized by its smooth response, allowing for detailed dynamic control over tracks, while the limiter provides an additional safety net for preventing signal clipping.

Another key feature is the inclusion of the iconic SSL mic preamp circuitry. The 1266 is equipped with a transformer-balanced mic pre, designed to deliver warmth and presence to vocals and instruments. It provides ample gain, ensuring the ability to capture signals clearly, even from low-output microphones. The design is meticulous, featuring very low noise and distortion levels, resulting in pure, transparent sound reproduction.

The SSL 1266 also incorporates the brand's proprietary 'SuperAnalog' technology, which enhances the overall sonic performance. This technology ensures low noise and high headroom, allowing the channel strip to handle high-level signals without compromising audio integrity. Additionally, the unit is designed with a robust build quality, featuring a durable chassis and high-grade components that ensure longevity and reliability in studio environments.

Furthermore, the 1266 includes features such as a high-pass filter and an insert point for integrating external processors, providing even more flexibility in sound design. It is also equipped with a line input and a balanced output, further enhancing connectivity options.

The Solid State Logic 1266 channel strip exemplifies the perfect blend of classic analog warmth and modern functionality. It caters to a wide range of applications, from tracking to mixing, making it an indispensable tool for any audio professional seeking to elevate their sound. With its comprehensive features and SSL's legacy of quality, the 1266 is a worthy investment for those aiming for excellence in audio production.
