Brainworx Ssl 4000 E Review



Here's a comparison of some of the brainworx channel strips (back to back comparisons starting at 8:08), here's one specifically about these three, and here is an in-depth one on the 4000E&G. And keep in mind that the brainworx SSL 4000E/G consoles both have the E and G dynamics integrated (switchable).

  • Brainworx bxconsole G SSL 4000 emulation I’d been after a channel strip emulator of the renowned SSL 4000 console that has legendary status since its introduction in 1987. I’ve already started using this plugin on new tracks.
  • PERFECTO

    Uso este plugin en cada canal de mis mezclas, es completamente EXQUISITO !!!
  • Plug in terbaik tahun 2019 - versi saya tentunya LOL

    Meski saya blm pernah menggunakan SSL console hardware sebelumnya dan tidak bisa mengkoparasi dengan fair antara hardware dan versi plug in ini. Akan tetapi jika kamu ingin menambahkan 'analog vibe' di DAW-mu, ya kalo aq bilang ini salah satu plug in yang bisa kamu andalkan.
    Ada 72 channel yang bisa kamu pilih. Saya juga memiliki emulasi SSL E dari developer plug in lain tapi menurut saya bx_console SSL 4000 E lebih bagus, suaranya lebih open, lebih halus, saturasinya lebih warm dan tidak menggorok CPU prosesing kamputer saya.
    Semoga dalam waktu dekat saya bisa membeli bx_console SSL G dan bx_townhouse biar makin lengkap rasa SSL di DAW saya.
    Terimakasih Pluginalliance dan Brairworx....
    produk2 kalian sungguh ciamiiiikkkk!!!!
  • Need a go-to channel strip?

    Ive used another wellknown brand's SSL E channel strip before, but when I tried the BX one, it was like my mixes where coming to life, it was like the sound opened up. The SSL E has quickly become my go-to channel strip and now, with the 80 series being released, I think those 2 plugins make a great combo and open up a world of possibilities.
  • SSL E soul

    Yes, all the wide and big sound, nothing more to say, just almost (or the same) than with a hardware, amazing, I am so happy because I used hardware and builded, and now with the Console N, E y G, I have all wath I need of analog sound. Really great. Remember setting the TDH control, that is very important. Really professional plugin
  • Maybe the best channel strip

    Was looking for a replacement of waves Omni Channel which was a big disappointment. Didn't live op to the hype. So I did a demo of the SSL E.
    Sound is big and impressive of the EQ and the virtual gain response in a way a large console response. Never worked on an SSl desk, but it reminded me of a Midas XL4 Pre.
    When comparing the virtual gain to a Waves NLS, the SSL E is more smooth, where the NLS is more Harsh in comparison. While both might be useful, the SSL E reacts in a way I like more
    The EQ does seem to do more than it says, when hooking it up to an analyser. Having said that trying to replicate the same with another EQ, the SSL E is a clear winner. Sound is large and eazy to shape. Leaves many SSL plugin sounding thin.
    The expander gate works nice. Easy to use with good results.
    CPU is really good, so far really impressed.
  • Amazing bx_console SSL 4000 E

    Simple & MEGA POWERFUL! It's really amazing plugin!!! Thanks very much, Plugin Alliance!
  • It's awsome

    I love it
  • SSL 4KE

    Quite simply incredible!
    If you're unable to mix an album with just this and a few ambience/modulation/bus comp processors then it's time for you to go and do something else..... say hairdressing or politics!
    Well done BX/PA, this thing is an absolute pleasure to work with..... outstanding!
  • Bx_console SSL 4000 E

    + Great sounding eq, TMT technology is nice feature to have, lots of useful features included like mix knob and highpassfilter knob in dynamics section, adjustable THD, VGain, 2 styles of eq (black and brown), contains switchable E and G dynamics section, unlikable dynamics section, filters go super high or super low with x3 button.
    - I would like to be able to choose from multiple gui sizes ( let's say 50% - 200% ), compressor could be a bit snapier, more punchy, knobs are too sensitive to mouse movements, even when holding shift and going really slow, I would like it to go more smoothly with smaller increments to be able to pick the value more precisely, also no option to insert exact value with keyboard that would be nice to have with double click on certain buttons.
    Anyway this is truly great plugin!
  • SSL 4000 E

    This channel strip is incredible, sounds punchier and warmer than the UAD one and miles ahead of the Waves channel. It barely takes up any CPU so I can have an instance on every track. The EQ is so strong and musical, I was able to transform this thin sounding DI guitar rhythm recording that my friend sent me into a pristine and round guitar track with some compression in a minute. Everything has so much punch and you can get a super clean sound. Gonna use this thing on everything, best 50$ spent for a plugin.
