The company philosophy has always been the same. Find ways to give engineers and producers tools to help them work their magic; to help them make music sound great and to work as quickly and creatively as possible. SSL has always been about ‘making the product disappear’, about not being a barrier to the creative process. We succeed because the way our products sound helps engineers get the results they are after quickly and easily and because we are obsessed with ergonomics and workflow. Today SSL’s Music Production Tools lead the way in delivering hybrid production systems that combine the very best of analogue & digital audio technology with hands on control over the DAW environment. Our products provide the superior sound of high grade analogue & digital hardware and harness the flexibility of the software world with the accelerated workflow of hardware control. Each engineer has their own very personal creative approach. Different types of music and different projects present different technical challenges and demand different workflow. SSL’s products offer a range of options and approaches that let producers work the way they want to. With nearly four decades and countless hit recordings behind us we are extremely proud of the fact that SSL technology is still at the heart of professional audio production… still finding new ways to do things… still setting standards for others to aspire to.

  • Surround Sound Auteurs and the Fragmenting of Genre
    Alan Williams: Surround Sound Auteurs and the Fragmenting of Genre Proceedings of the 12th Art of Record Production Conference Mono: Stereo: Multi Williams, A. (2019). Surround Sound Auteurs and the Fragmenting of Genre. In J.-O. Gullö (Ed.), Proceedings of the 12th Art of Record Production Conference Mono: Stereo: Multi (pp. 319-328). Stockholm: Royal College of Music (KMH) & Art of Record Production. Alan Williams: Surround Sound Auteurs and the Fragmenting of Genre Abstract Multi-channel sonic experience is derived from a myriad of technological processes, shaped by market forces, configured by creative decision makers and translated through audience taste preferences. From the failed launch of quadrophonic sound in the 1970s, through the currently limited, yet sustained niche market for 5.1 music releases, a select number of mix engineers and producers established paradigms for defining expanded sound stages. Whe- reas stereophonic mix practices in popular music became ever more codified during the 1970s, the relative paucity of multi-channel releases has preserved the individual sonic fingerprint of mixers working in surround sound. More- over, market forces have constricted their work to musical genres that appeal to the audiophile community that supports the format. This study examines the work of Elliot Scheiner, Bob Clearmountain, Giles Martin, and Steven Wilson to not only analyze the sonic signatures of their mixes, but to address how their conceptions of the soundstage become associated with specific genres, and serve to establish micro-genres of their own. I conclude by ar- guing that auteurs such as Steven Wilson have amassed an audience for their mixes, with a catalog that crosses genre boundaries, establishing a mode of listening that in itself represents an emergent genre – surround rock.

The Beatles revolution- ized the recording process using technology to achieve completely unprecedented sounds and arrangements. Until then, popular music recordings were simply faithful reproductions of a live performance. Over the past fifty years, recording and production techniques have advanced so far that another challenge has arisen: it is now very difficult for performing artists to give a live performance that has the same impact, complexity and nuance as a produced studio recording.
