Description

Ask any pro engineer, there’s nothing like the SSL G-Master on the stereo bus. Originally strapped across SSL console master buses to “glue” mixes together into a solid, cohesive experience, the SSL G-Master is also ideal for drum buses, backup vocals, and even solo instruments.

The SSL G-Master Buss Compressor’s crucial role in hit after hit has stood the test of time, and Waves’ emulation faithfully re-creates this essential sound.

The Original “Glue” Compressor

Engineers working with the SSL 4000 G-Series Console quickly realized that its master bus compressor, with its uncanny ability to “glue” tracks together in the final mix, was the perfect way to unify the overall sound.

Beyond the Master Bus

This versatile compressor’s intuitive operation, along with the ability to compress gently or add color, has also made the SSL G-Master Buss Compressor a favorite for drums, overhead mics, vocals, piano, and more.

Licensed and Validated by Solid State Logic

To create the world’s finest virtual SSL G-Master Buss Compressor, we went to the source: SSL. This compressor’s vintage feedback-based design sounds smoother than the more common feedforward design.

Timeless, with a Modern Twist

The SSL G-Master Buss Compressor includes the original’s sidechain and fade function, as well as its distinctive analog character with subtle hiss and harmonic distortion. Or, choose a pristine digital implementation.

Presets from the Pros

Choose the right sound fast, by taking advantage of the expertise that’s “baked into” production-ready presets from Chris Lord-Alge, Steve Lillywhite, Dave Pensado, and a dozen other top recording engineers.
