SSL 2+ MKII User Guide – SSL Support
When the MIX control is set to the right-most position labelled USB, you will
hear only the audio output from your computer's USB stream e.g. music
playing from your media player (e.g. iTunes/Spotify/Windows Media Player)
or the outputs of your DAW tracks (Pro Tools, Live, etc).
Positioning the control anywhere in between INPUT and USB will give you a
variable blend of the two options. This can be really useful when you need
to record with no audible latency. Please refer to the How-To / Application
Examples section for more information on using this feature.
GREEN USB LED
Illuminates solid green to indicate that the unit is succesfully receiving
power over USB.
MONITOR Level (Large Black Control)
This control directly affects the level sent out of OUTPUTS 1 (Left) and 2
(Right) to your monitors. Turn the knob to make the volume louder. Please
note the MONITOR LEVEL goes to 11 because it's one louder...
HEADPHONE OUTPUTS
PHONES A & B allow for two sets of headphones to be connected, both of
which can be configured to allow independent mixes for artists and
engineers. Their output levels are set by the PHONES A and PHONES B
controls on the front panel.
3&4 Button
Next to the Headphones B control, is a button labelled 3&4. When
unselected, Headphones B will receive the same mix as Headphones A
(DAW Outputs 1-2). Engaging the 3&4 button instead sources Headphones
B from DAW Outputs 3-4, allowing for the creation of an independent mix
(perhaps for the artist). You would use aux sends in the DAW routed to
outputs 3-4 to create this independent mix.
By default, the Headphones B Output with 3&4 engaged will not respect
the MIX control e.g. Only DAW Outputs 3-4 are sent to Headphones B.
Pressing and holding 3&4 until the LED starts to flash will allow
Headphones B to respect the MIX control, allowing the artist to benefit from
a mix of the low-latency input signals (Inputs 1-2), together with a custom
headphone mix (3&4). You can toggle between the two modes whenever
you like.
