The вЂSSL bus compressorвЂ™, then, has become aВ genre all of its own, with an option for every user and pretty much any budget.Д¬uriously, while others augmented this design, SSL themselves did relatively little to it. Some products compete on sonics, whether that means better specs or recreating an authentic original version, some on the sheer number of additional functions and settings, and others feature tradeвЂ‘offs that enable keener pricing. They ususally implement at least aВ couple of design tweaks, and often many. But most of those вЂtributesвЂ™ arenвЂ™t direct copies.

In fact, if we discount mic preamps, it is arguably the most copied of them all. If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, Solid State Logic (SSL) should feel very flattered: the stereo VCA вЂbus compressorвЂ™ which first featured in their 1980s GвЂ‘series consoles and went on to earn an enviable reputation as a вЂmix glueвЂ™ compressor has to be one of the most widely cloned audio circuits. Other manufacturers: вЂњHey SSL! We made your bus compressor even better.вЂќ SSL: вЂњHold my beer.вЂќ
