The channel strip EQ in SSL consoles has been a huge factor in the enduring popularity of the SSL sound. SSL produced several channel strip EQ variations over the years with each type having its own special distinct character. The 292 was one of the last iterations of SSL’s famed EQ designs. The G-EQ is modeled after the rack-mounted version of SSL’s G 292 EQ boasting the “pink knob” EQ.
When engineers prioritize character and shape over detail the fabled 292 is often their EQ of choice. Go for More Extreme Character Add the SSL G-EQ to your chain to create more extreme equalization than with the E-Channel Strip. Many engineers use the E-Channel’s EQ for detail work adding the SSL G-EQ further down the chain to give the sound extra character.
More Sonic SSL Options For the two parametric stages the 292 has an increased boost/cut range up to ±20 dB—and ±17 dB for the shelving stages. This considerable increase over the original E-series EQs gives even more sonic options. Sweeter Shelving The shelving EQ stages have a slight pre-boost dip and pre-cut rise.
