Solid State Logic Oracle 24-Channel Analog Mixing Console
<p>The <strong>Solid State Logic Oracle</strong> is a fully analog in-line mixing console offering large-format features in a compact AWS-size footprint, with instant, effortless, and complete recall of all processing, routing, gain and pan settings, thanks to innovative new ActiveAnalogue technology. Oracle is available here with 24 mono in-line channels, with 24 next-gen PureDrive Microphone Preamplifiers. All configurations feature four Stereo Main Busses, 16 Track Busses, 10 Auxes (Stereo/Mono), 16 Stereo 'Flex' Groups, and five Stereo Monitor Outputs (including bass management).</p> <h3 id="toc_0">REVOLUTIONARY ACTIVEANALOGUE TECHNOLOGY </h3> <p>ActiveAnalogue is a revolutionary technology from Solid State Logic that combines the renowned sound and power of SSL analog processing and summing, with ultra-precise adjustment and an active control system. ActiveAnalogue redefines audio production for professionals by preserving the unmistakable analog warmth and depth that producers and engineers depend on, while totally removing the flaws that disrupt creative flow and hinder studio efficiency.</p> <h3 id="toc_1">A NEW SSL SONIC SIGNATURE</h3> <p> Oracle merges the harmonic drive technology of the latest SSL PureDrive Mic Preamps, the current-driven busses introduced in ORIGIN, and various flavors of harmonic saturation accessible throughout the console. Oracle delivers unprecedented recall and reset capabilities along with the sonic flexibility of SSL's latest analog circuit design. Capable of producing beautifully precise SuperAnalogue audio, to a palette of driven analog tones, Oracle embodies the DNA of the classic E, G, and J/K consoles while taking SSL's sonic signature into the future.</p> <h3 id="toc_2">FUTURE ANALOGUE CHANNEL STRIP </h3> <p>Oracle's 'Future Analogue' channel strip retains the much-loved elements of classic SSL consoles while integrating their latest analog circuitry. Featuring stereo/dual mono channel strips that offer a second line level input per channel, each of Oracle's channels is a traditional in-line design with separate 'record' and 'monitor' paths, with independent input gain and output level control, and processing routing flexibility.</p> <h3 id="toc_3">BUS ARCHITECTURE </h3> <p>The bus architecture of Oracle also has innovative flexibility. There are a total of 34 Mix Busses that any channel can access. These are divided up as 16 Track Busses, 10 Aux Busses and four Stereo Mix Busses (Main A + B, C, D). The 10 Aux Busses can be configured as individual mono busses or joined in pairs to create up to five Stereo Aux Busses, ideal for the duties of foldback sub-mixes, mono or stereo stems or effects sends. Each channel path can either individually or simultaneously route to any or all of these busses, providing the ability to create stem mixes for separate output, or parallel mixes for independent processing, before summing to the Main A bus.</p> <h3 id="toc_4">CENTER SECTION </h3> <p>Oracle's center section is mission control, providing visual feedback and tactile control over key functions of the console. All Main, Track, and Aux Bus control and Foldback information and levels are accessible via high-resolution displays and encoders. Detail Views not only cover channel processing, but also detail views for all the Centre Processing. These appear when a centre section Detail View is called up, and when they appear, they 'shrink' the main meters to continue to allow the metering of the console's output busses. Here are examples of those screens, which show some of the power of Oracle's Centre Section processing.</p> <h3 id="toc_5">INTEGRATED THE BUS+, DYNAMIC EQ, AND MORE</h3> <p>THE BUS+ is a modern-day classic that takes the glue and punch of the G Comp into the future. Offering four modes of operation, LOW THD, Feed-Back, and '4K' Saturation Modes, along with sought-after analog processors such as Dynamic EQ, Transient Expander, and much more. Oracles integrated THE BUS+ adds exceptional flexibility to the console sonic capabilities and is fully recallable thanks to ActiveAnalogue technology.</p> <h3 id="toc_6">CONTROL ROOM MONITORING AND FOLDBACK </h3> <p>Oracle's monitoring continues the tradition of previous SSL consoles supporting Main and four alternative Stereo Monitor sections. The fourth alt monitor can be configured as a subwoofer/LFE output with bass management. Remote Monitor Control capabilities give access to control of third-party immersive processors, such as Dolby Atmos, creating the perfect hybrid immersive production system. Three independent Foldback feeds, a surface headphone output, as well as four stereo external source inputs, including a console surface stereo input suitable for direct connection to an instrument or a third-party Bluetooth receiver unit.</p> <h3 id="toc_7">EIGHT STEREO GROUP INPUTS </h3> <p>Oracle has eight flexible fader-controlled Stereo Group inputs, which can also pick-up the sixteen Track Busses in pairs ...
