The buzz is building around the 2025 NAMM Show, and Solid State Logic (SSL) is right at the center of it. Known for setting industry standards in audio engineering, SSL is ready to unveil a brand-new “studio centrepiece” on January 23rd at 10:15 a.m. at their Booth 18301. The announcement comes with the promise of elevating what producers and engineers can achieve in today’s studio environments.
Innovation Meets Legacy at SSL
This year, SSL’s booth will showcase a blend of new and established favorites. On the cutting edge are the debuting MKII versions of their acclaimed 2/2+ audio interfaces. These feature next-gen 32-bit conversion for superior clarity, dual Hi-Z inputs for added flexibility, and enhanced functionality for both professionals and creative newcomers. For studios needing more, the SSL 12 will also be on display.
Meanwhile, SSL will feature its legendary ORIGIN analogue studio console, a cornerstone for studios worldwide since its 2019 debut. Known for delivering the unmistakable SSL 4000E sound in a more accessible format, ORIGIN now boasts updated configurations, including a 16-channel variant with integrated UF8 DAW control. It’s a masterclass in merging classic SSL quality with modern adaptability.
Experience the Future: Virtual SSL Console and Advanced Tools
NAMM attendees can also immerse themselves in SSL’s expanding digital ecosystem, including the U Series controllers (UF8, UC1, and UF1) paired with the SSL 360 software. Together, these tools recreate the seamless workflow of a traditional SSL console in a digital environment, complete with powerful plug-ins like the 360 Link and Bus Comp Link. The Complete Access Bundle (CAB), featuring top-tier plug-ins from SSL, Harrison Audio, and Slate Digital, will also be available for hands-on demonstrations.
For those who crave the feel of classic analogue equipment with a modern twist, the BiG SiX desktop mixer will be front and center. This powerhouse combines the core functionality of a large-format SSL console with a 16-channel USB audio interface in a compact, desktop-friendly design. Paired with 500 series processors and UC1, the BiG SiX becomes the backbone of a hybrid mixing setup, offering unparalleled versatility and performance.
Live Sound Steps Up with V6.0 Software
Live sound professionals will want to check out the SSL Live V6.0 software update, showcased on the flagship L650 console. This free update integrates industry-leading studio tools into the live sound ecosystem, expanding the possibilities for sonic precision. Enhanced Dante routing, improved remote controls, and other upgrades make this a must-see for anyone working in live production.
SSL is also hosting a series of guest presentations, featuring top producers and engineers who’ll share insights and techniques for both studio and live sound applications. Whether you’re managing sound for tours, events, or houses of worship, these demos promise valuable takeaways.

The NAMM Show represents a perfect stage for SSL to exhibit its continuous evolution. With products like the ORIGIN console, BiG SiX mixer, and the new MKII audio interfaces, SSL continues to set benchmarks in audio technology.
