The PURE DRIVE QUAD solid State Logic (SSL) is a 4-channel micro preamp designed to provide exceptional flexibility and sound quality to production studios. Technology PureDriveTM, borrowed from the ORIGIN console, this preamp offers a sound of crystalline purity in mode Clean as well as a smooth and musical harmonic saturation thanks to the modes Classic Drive and Asymmetric Drive. It adapts perfectly to the needs of sound engineers and producers in search of a versatile solution, capable of capturing subtle nuances or adding heat and character to recordings.
The PURE DRIVE QUAD is distinguished by its four channels with high performance preamps, variable impedance options, and detailed controls such as step gain, adjustable trim, and high-pass filter. These features allow for advanced customization for each sound source, whether capacitor, dynamic, or ribbon microphones. The digital design of its circuits ensures maximum accuracy and perfect consistency between channels, even during intensive or prolonged use.
In addition to its sound performance, the PURE DRIVE QUAD shines by its advanced connectivity. It offers analog and digital inputs/outputs, including ADAT and AES connections, as well as an integrated USB interface that allows the device to be used as a multichannel sound card. DC-coupled outputs and symmetrical inserts add even more possibilities for external processing. Compact and robust, with its 2U rack format, this preamp is an ideal solution for studios looking for high performance in a convenient and versatile format.
