Sigma seamlessly brings the analogue joy of mixing on an SSL console into DAW dominated workflow. Using MDAC technology unique to SSL, Sigma takes the SuperAnalogue mix buss from SSL's Duality and AWS consoles and delivers it in a 2U rack design, with complete remote control of the analogue signal path, using a hardware control surface and/or volume automation written inside your DAW.
Consistent feedback from the world's leading producers demonstrates that analogue summing still brings a record together in a special way that no emulation plug-in can match. Sigma and SSL's no-compromise approach to designing audio circuits, delivers summing with an extended low-end frequency response, wide stereo imaging, clarity, depth and detail. When it comes to sonic tone and character many leading engineers state that a significant part of their sound is the magic that happens when you drive the analogue mix buss of a console a little too hard that delicate cohesive distortion only pushed analogue mix buss brings their mixes. This is exactly the case with Sigma. It is at its best when pushed to that sweet spot, to the point where it yields that extra sonic dimension which has always been part of the legendary SSL sound.
Sigma combines its true analogue tone and depth with complete integration into a DAW dominated workflow.
Sigma also features a dual output monitor and headphone switcher and talkback system which is completely remote controllable. Sigma is set up using a cross platform, tablet ready html 5 software browser that offers comprehensive configuration controls. Running on an iPad or other tablet the browser also performs as a superb remote control for the monitor switcher/talkback.
