Ideal for broadcast and post applications where a combination of analogue processing and digital control are key tools to productivity, Matrix is useful to a number of areas of the production process.

In Post, SuperAnalogue signal quality means Matrix and an accompanying SSL X-Rack full of Mic Pre’s, EQ’s and Dynamics modules are perfect recording tools for foley and voice recording applications. Matrix has comprehensive foldback facilities and enough mix and auxilliary busses to keep the session and ‘The Talent’ working comfortably with all the cues they need. Integrated DAW control means transport control of sound and picture are in front of the engineer at all times combined with push button locate memories, ADR cues become easy to memorise, locate to and cycle round for fast, stress free, flowing sessions.

Simultaneous DAW control capability provides a perfect toolset to assist complex Sound Design work, where effects and soundscapes are created using combinations of workstation packages. With a single button press you can switch from logic to live, from live to reason keeping the creative process flowing and all with the fantastic sonic performance of an SSL mix bus.

Installing this option will convert the External Source inputs EXT A and B input from stereo to 5.1, and the stereo monitor outputs into two 5.1 outputs. This provides 2 input stems for 5.1 monitoring, and 2 sets of 5.1 speakers to switch between and control using the Matrix centre section.
