Introduction
Section 2 – Introduction
the AWS 900+ – Analogue Workstation System
The AWS 900+ is a revolutionary combination of a compact world-class analogue mixing console and a
comprehensive DAW controller. Based on SSL's flagship XL 9000 K Series console, the AWS 900+ provides
everything you need to record, edit and mix professional projects – just add the workstation of your choice.
Solid State Logic mixing systems are the de facto standard in audio production, valued for their unrivalled audio
quality and control ergonomics. SSL was the first company to integrate automation and machine control into the
mixing console, and it pioneered surround mixing. The AWS 900+ delivers the same powerful integration
benefits to DAW users, who face similar challenges with an array of equipment (Mic Amps, Effects, Controllers
etc.) to produce professional results from a modern DAW.
Design Concepts
The AWS 900+ is the only console that provides the dual benefits of a fully featured SuperAnalogue signal
path, coupled with a comprehensive DAW controller. The product is a result of extensive customer and market
feedback.
