[SSL 18]
■26-in / 28-out, high-performance USB audio interface

Introducing the SSL 18, a new era in rackmount production technology from Solid State Logic.
Developed from unparalleled expertise in analog and digital design, the SSL 18 delivers exceptional audio performance with studio-ready features, delivering the SSL sound and high-quality sound that professionals trust. Whether you're recording, producing or mixing, the SSL 18 will enhance your production workflow while elevating the performance of your creative space, making it the ultimate centerpiece of your studio.
Welcome to a new era of rackmount interfaces.

■Best-In-Class Audio Performance
32-Bit / 192 kHz / Unparalleled Analog & Digital Audio Performance

Best-in-Class Audio Performance Next-generation 32-bit/192kHz converters provide the platform for the SSL 18's analog design, delivering an unparalleled 120 dB dynamic range on all mic, line-level and instrument inputs.
The monitor and line outputs provide a dynamic range of 125 dB, allowing you to monitor with uncompromising sound quality.
The dual headphone outputs boast a dynamic range of 120 dB.

■8 x SSL-designed Mic/Line inputs
The SSL 18 features eight high-performance SSL-designed mic preamps in switchable mic/line configuration.
Based on the design concept of many previous preamps, it achieves ultra-low noise recording and a wide dynamic range.
You can also switch to Legacy 4K mode to add true analog saturation and the iconic sound of the SSL 4000 series to vocals, drums and more.
Additionally, Line mode completely bypasses the mic preamp stage, making it ideal for connecting external outboard gear.
Inputs 1 and 2 on the front of the unit are also instrument/Hi-Z inputs, allowing you to capture DI'd guitars or vintage synths/drum machines.

120 dB Dynamic Range / -130.5 dBu EIN / Legacy 4K Analogue Enhancement

■10 x Line-outputs
The SSL 18 is equipped with ten balanced line-level outputs on the rear panel.
To ensure optimal signal levels and maximize headroom, Line Outputs 1, 2, 3 and 4 can be set between +9 and +24 dBu, providing seamless compatibility with some studio monitors and vintage equipment that operate at lower levels.
Outputs 3-10 operate at +24 dBu, making them ideal for integrating professional outboard equipment.
All outputs are DC coupled, allowing you to send control voltages to synthesizers or modular rigs.

125 dB Dynamic Range / +24 dBu operating levels / Main & Alt Speaker Switching / DC-Coupled Outputs

■Dual High-Performance Headphone Outputs
Two independent headphone outputs that can be configured to different types with "standard," "high sensitivity," and "high impedance" settings allow for custom headphone mixes.
The SSL 18's headphone output can also be repurposed as a line-level output for added flexibility.

[d+USB Type-C to C classB/1.0]

★Audio-grade, Type-C to C (USB 2.0) cable

No need for a USB adapter for either the PC or the interface.
The MacBook Pro, the standard in DJ, DTM, and streaming environments, is equipped with a USB Type-C connector. Many users have been forced to use a Type-C converter when using a d+ USB cable. Additionally, with the emergence of many audio interfaces using Type-C, there has been a demand for a simpler, direct USB Type-C connection without a converter. The introduction of the d+ USB Type-C to C Class B cable makes this possible. The stress of needing a USB adapter is no longer necessary. The d+ USB Type-C to C Class B cable provides a smart, high-quality Type-C connection for your system.

●The quality of the d+ sound remains the same
The Type-C connector is very compact. However, if the cable used is downsized unnecessarily, it will not satisfy many users. The d+ series Type-C is the largest size within USB regulations. Despite its slim design, it promises a wide range of sound. The flat cable and connector, which inherit the design that is instantly recognizable as d+, are a symbol of d+ quality that remains even with the change in connector.

●World-class quality control: The compact and convenient Type-C connector. Because it's small and portable, durability is essential. d+ USB Type-C to C Class B is produced under strict quality control, and only those that pass rigorous testing are shipped. In addition to tests under real-world conditions such as insertion/removal, bending, and load durability, the cable undergoes a characteristic impedance test called TDR (time domain reflectometry), and environmental tests such as placing the cable in high and low temperature environments with an elevation difference of 80°C or more for more than 48 hours to test the cable's condition and electrical characteristics. In addition, the cable undergoes tests under humidity levels of 80% or more and UV exposure. Only those that pass all these tests are shipped.

● Sound quality comparable to that of battery powered devices
When comparing the sound output when a PC is powered by an AC adapter to the sound output when it's running on the PC's battery, the sound output when the PC is powered directly from the battery without AC/DC switching is superior. Many modern PCs, including the MacBook Pro, use USB Type-C cables as power cables, and a d+USB Type-C to C class B cable also makes a difference when used as a power supply cable for these devices. There's no denying that power cables improve sound output, and the effectiveness of using a d+USB Type-C to C class B cable as a power cable for a PC is no exception.
