An authentic SSL bus compressor for powerful, cohesive mixes.
Experience legendary British compression with the SSL 4000 Series G Bus Compressor. Designed as an authentic emulation of the iconic SSL 4000 console bus compressor, this powerful plug-in provides the punch, glue and polished sound that has defined hit records for decades. With intuitive controls and custom features, the SSL 4000 G Bus Compressor makes it easy to achieve a professional studio sound on your mixes and buses.
Iconic SSL Glue for Modern Productions
The SSL 4000 G Bus Compressor is modeled after the renowned stereo bus compressor from the iconic SSL 4000 console, used on countless hit records. It imparts the same smooth dynamic control and rich harmonic distortion that gives mixes a unified, polished sound with enhanced clarity and depth. From subtle glue to more aggressive peak limiting, the simple interface lets you quickly dial in the perfect amount of compression for your needs.
Custom Features
New enhancements provide modern workflow advantages. An internal sidechain filter lets you reduce low-end pumping, while a mix control offers parallel compression for drums and vocals. Adjust the headroom to optimize the plug-in's operating level. And like the original console units, the auto fade feature provides a signature 60-second SSL fade. With its Native version, the SSL 4000 G Bus Compressor gives you everything needed to craft pro-level mixes.
Artist Presets From Top Engineers
The SSL 4000 G Bus Compressor comes with presets from renowned mixing engineers, providing a great starting point for using the plug-in. Presets include Just Blaze (Beyoncé, Kendrick Lamar), Peter Mokran (The Flaming Lips, Mary J. Blige) and Ian Boxill (Prince, Tupac).
