Class-Leading Microphone Preamps
SSL 2 MKII features two high-performance SSL-designed mic preamps delivering a wide 64 dB gain range and exceptional clarity.

Each preamp also includes:
- Line mode for connecting synthesisers and external hardware
- Instrument mode for guitars and basses
- 48 V phantom power for condenser microphones
- High-pass filters for removing unwanted low-frequency rumble
Professional-Grade Monitor Outputs
Balanced left and right outputs on the rear ensure reliable studio connectivity. The SSL 2 MKII delivers a powerful 120 dB dynamic range on the monitor outputs, giving you the clarity and depth needed for accurate mixing and mastering. All outputs are fully DC-coupled, allowing you to send control voltages to modular and analogue synthesisers for creative routing and modulation.
Dual High-Performance Headphone Outputs
Conveniently located on the front panel, the dual headphone outputs use newly developed high-current NJM amplifier technology. Capable of driving everything from low-impedance earbuds to high-impedance studio headphones, these redesigned outputs deliver an impressive 119.5 dB dynamic range. Whether recording, editing or mixing on the move, SSL 2 MKII ensures exceptional detail and consistent monitoring accuracy.
Legacy 4K Analogue Enhancement
Inspired by the iconic SSL 4000 series consoles, Legacy 4K Mode adds subtle harmonic distortion and a musical high-frequency boost. The result is added vibe, presence and character reminiscent of classic SSL analogue processing. Perfect for giving vocals extra gloss, enhancing drums or adding definition to guitars and synthesisers.

SSL 2 MKII employs next-generation 32-bit 192 kHz converters for pristine A-D/D-A performance.
