OOPS! SOLD OUT

The SSL Nucleus 2 – Now with Dante!

Since its 2010 release, SSL's original Nucleus has won awards and become the indispensable centerpiece of DAW-based studios worldwide. Now the Solid State Logic Nucleus 2 ups the ante with a host of innovations aimed at boosting your productivity and improving your end product. The addition of Dante over Ethernet opens up a new world of zero-latency connectivity for your studio. A new adjustable-gain talkback input feeds the headphone output and can trigger a switchable -20dB dim across the monitor outs. SSL also added a second set of speaker outputs (switched from the Mini button in the center section) handy for A/B mix comparisons on different monitors. Add in a pair of world-class SuperAnalogue preamps, and the Solid State Logic Nucleus 2 is a serious upgrade for your studio.
