SSL Native X-EQ 2
The Ultimate SSL EQ for your DAW
X-EQ 2 is the ultimate SSL EQ toolkit for audio professionals. Built upon SSL’s proprietary anti-cramping algorithms, X-EQ 2 simply sounds stunning. With 17 different classic and modern EQ type/curve options, X-EQ 2 is a formidable and powerful contender to be your new ‘go-to’ EQ plug-in.
X-EQ 2 is a highly configurable 24-band EQ plug-in, featuring unique anti-cramping algorithms for an unparalleled open and transparent sound. It’s the ultimate EQ toolkit, with 17 different EQ types and filter shapes. Each band is switchable between bell, shelf, low pass or high pass filter types, with both classic and customisable shapes available for each band. It features brand new spatial processing options, band soloing, and the classic X-EQ 'Parallel' mode for recreating the characteristic sound of old parallel passive EQ circuits.
Features
- Fully parametric 24-band mastering-grade EQ
- 17 different EQ types and filter shapes for incredible versatility
- Anti-cramping algorithms preserve high-frequency information sometimes lost in a digital-audio environment
- DSP-optimized for light and efficient CPU use
- Mid-side and independent left/right processing
- Pinpoint trouble frequencies with band soloing
- Real-time visual frequency analysis

X-ValveComp
Saturating Valve-Style Compressor
X-ValveComp is a fully-featured mono or stereo channel compressor with a full set of classic channel compressor controls and an added 'valve' emulation stage. The valve emulation stage sits after the compressor in the signal path and adds a variable degree of primarily 2nd order harmonic saturation and distortion that thickens and colours the sound.
The compressor can be switched between Peak or RMS modes and has a full set of controls including; Threshold, Ratio, Knee, Attack, Release and Hold. There are Input and Output Meters with separate kick down compression amount indication and Input and Output Level controls. There's a Gain Make Up control and switched Auto Gain Make Up mode.
A dedicated wet/dry mix control facilitates parallel compression. Side Chain input, high and low pass filters can be used to trigger compression. X-ValveComp can be automated via standard DAW Automation data and has A&B Preset 'slots' with an A/B switch for easy comparison of two different combinations of settings.
Features
- Traditional compressor layout with threshold, ratio, knee, attack, release, and hold controls
- Engage the valve emulation stage for rich 2nd-order harmonics
- Use it in parallel, à la New York–style compression, for extra heft and weight
- Operate in Peak and RMS modes
- Includes sidechain architecture with highpass and lowpass filters

SSL X-Gate
Precision Gate Processor with Advanced SSL Workflow
Intuitive Gate with Advanced Shaping Features
SSL X-Gate is a comprehensive and highly visual gating plugin, inspired by the workflow from SSL's digital broadcast consoles. Featuring a rolling waveform graph, mid/side processing options & tweakable hysteresis using independent open & closed thresholds, X-Gate builds upon SSL’s rich heritage in digital console gate design.
X-Gate delivers a range of unique control features for extended sound sculpting – use the intuitive sidechain filter interface and mid/side balance options to focus the gate on unwanted sounds and leave the processed signal as natural or affected as you’d like. In addition to visual feedback including the hardware-inspired traffic light system for immediate visual confirmation of the gate’s current status, the rolling waveform visualisation graph provides an intuitive display of the incoming signal against which to set your open and close thresholds.
Ideal not only for sound design in the mixing stage, X-Gate introduces variable lookahead times and zero additional plugin latency at the lowest setting, making it the perfect tool for tracking situations where mic bleed can distract from the primary source material.
The EXP and DUCK modes immediately drop the plugin into two additional modes, visualised by the I/O graph: fixed expander mode for transparent gating, and duck mode for attenuating a signal only when it exceeds a threshold – combine this with your DAW’s sidechain for intelligent ducking.
Features
- Easy-to-use THRESHOLD and RANGE controls, visually aligned with WAVEFORM GRAPH and GAIN REDUCTION METER for coordinated control
- ROLLING WAVEFORM VISUALISATION GRAPH for setting the perfect threshold
- Hysteresis - split OPEN and CLOSE THRESHOLD behaviour
- ATTACK, RELEASE and HOLD time parameters give detailed control over the shaping of the audio
- Tune the performance of the gate using the interactive FILTER GRAPH to apply HIGH- and LOW-PASS FILTERS to the sidechain signal
- Use the EXPANDER mode and accompanying KNEE control for a more transparent option: make quiet signals quieter, and expand the dynamic range of the signal
- Simple discrete LOOKAHEAD options for minimising the latency when using a lookahead
- Transform the plugin into a production ducker with a single click – use DUCK mode to invert the sidechain logic, attenuating the signal only when it exceeds the threshold i.e., to duck the music when you speak into your microphone
- Tailor the gate to best suit your source material using PEAK/RMS DETECTION options
- Tri-colour TRAFFIC LIGHT CUES give a clear indication on the momentary open/closed/hold state of the gate
- Use the MID/SIDE processing options to trigger the gate in creative ways or gate only the mono or stereo components on the signal
- SIDECHAIN and GATE audition modes
