Solid State Logic Mid-80s 502 EQ x4 505 Line Amp x4 custom rack

Four parametric EQs and four line amps with HPF/LPF from a mid-80's SSL desk, custom racked and powered! The second line input and inserts are hard bypassed so only the line 1/mic input and output are currently active.

Some info about the units:

The SSL 502 EQ is a vintage 4-band channel equalizer module originally built for the rare SSL 5000 Series film and broadcast analog consoles.

4-Band Layout: Four distinct frequency bands offering detailed and surgical sound shaping.

Shelving/Bell Switches: Low and high shelves feature switches to change response curves.

Tight/Loose Switch: Includes controls to alter bandwidth characteristics.

Sonic Character

• Punchy & Precise: Known as a heavy-duty workhorse for surgical tracking and carving problem frequencies.
• More Bite: Offers an aggressive, defined edge compared to smoother, warmer equalizers. [1, 2, 3, 4]

The Solid State Logic SL505 is a rare dual-mono line input module originally pulled from the ultra-exclusive SSL 5000 Series film-scoring consoles. It features classic SSL E-series sweepable high-pass and low-pass filters and is known for delivering a natural, opto-style saturation when pushed hard.

• Module Type: Dual mono line input / line amp.
• Origin: Pulled from rare SSL 5000 mixing systems used for major film post-production.
• Core Controls: Sweep-able high-pass (HPF) and low-pass (LPF) filters.

Sonic Character & Usage

• Saturation: Acts similarly to an optical compressor when driven with hot line signals.
• Filtering: Highly musical analog filtering for shaping synths, stems, or full mixes during tracking or summing.
