Must buy, but has software issues

freezeware 26.02.2023

Good:
-More inputs than SSL2/SSL2+
-Some professional mixing options
-SSL 360 software and direct routing
Bad:
-WME driver is no longer mono for channels, therefore WME audio driver applications (like ShadowPlay) capture both CH1 and CH2 in a L/R configuration. This will result in CH1 playing in L-channel, and it is not possible to make it non-stereo.
-Sometimes when powered on, outputs may be unresponsive or play white noise. This will likely be fixed at later date with a firmware update.

This is the audio interface of 2024

RikiTree 19.07.2024

I was looking for a new audio interface with 4 input and I was in between universal audio and SSL!
The Volt series looks very simple and pleasing to the eye but I needed an ADAT connection so I went with the SSL.
Received the product in 3 days!
Unboxed and it looks very professional, I like that the 4 input are at the back and the front is neat with the headphones out and instrument that don’t look bad at all. You have 4 outputs so you can connect 4 monitors that you can control with the big knob.
Really clean preamps and lots of headroom if you enable the 4K button.
Great interface!!!

Exactly as advertised

Vince Marques 21.06.2023

Very good all-round! 4K feature is great. The interface is super easy to use. Perfect for a small studio.

Only thing is that I wish the monitor control could be connected to outputs 3-4 at the same time as 1-2, so I could control 4 outputs with one knob, or have a button to swap between the control of those 2 stereo outs.
