Frome SSL:

Duality is firmly established as the industry standard for large-scale professional audio production worldwide. Akin to previous generations of classic SSL consoles, Duality enables engineers and producers to work quickly and ergonomically, as well as delivering superior sonic results.

It's innovative hybrid approach has found many fans, by combining a traditional analogue path and signal processing along with exceptional DAW control and integration, all within a single hardware surface. The introduction of δelta-Control launched the next evolutionary step in plug-in control for Duality, and now with integrated Fusion processing, it’s simple to add an almost limitless range of tonal character, weight and space to your mix, delivering superior sonic results on any style of production. 

Each channel of Duality Fuse features a SuperAnalogue™ mic preamp and an additional Variable Harmonic Drive (VHD) preamp. The VHD Pre is a patented SSL preamp design that can deliver ultra-clean SSL grade recordings but also features the VHD circuit which can be switched into the signal path. The Variable Harmonic Drive circuit uses a 100% analogue signal path to generate rich harmonic distortion. As you increase the input gain, the Variable Harmonic Drive circuit introduces either 2nd or 3rd harmonic distortion or a blend of the two to your source material. At lower gain settings it adds gentle valve-style warmth or a touch of transistor edge. As the gain is increased the more extreme the distortion becomes until at high gain settings it delivers fierce trashy transistoresque grunge. VHD pre's give the user ultimate versatility from a studio grade preamp. Whether it's ultra-clean traditional SSL, subtle warming or totally trashy transistor distortion, VHD will change your expectations of what a preamplifier should deliver.

δ-Ctrl is a native AAX/AU/RTAS/VST/VST3 plug-in that allows automation of Duality Fuse as if it were a DAW Plug-in. The automation system in the DAW is used to record and playback control data from the faders and switches on the console as an alternative to using the SSL legacy automation system in Duality Fuse. The δ-Ctrl plug-in is inserted into a DAW mixer audio channel. The plug-in then receives and sends control data from an assigned Duality Fuse channel, VCA or Master fader via a high speed Ethernet Network connection. Audio on the DAW track passes through the plug-in slot unprocessed so the plug-in can be combined with other DAW plug-ins. The console Fader, mutes and relevant switches are represented as plug-in parameters in a δ-Ctrl plug-in GUI and their automation data is recorded to the automation lane of the selected DAW channel. In playback the plug-in converts the stored automation data from the DAW into δ-Ctrl messages and routes these back to the console via the SSL Logictivity Network connection.

Duality Fuse combines the analogue colouration tools of Fusion with our industry-standard large-format Duality SuperAnalogue™ console, adding the detail, warmth and finesse that only real analogue circuits can provide. 

The addition of Fusion to the centre section brings even more flexibility to this industry-leading console and only adds 90mm/3.5-inches to the width. There’s flexible, patch-free press-button routing with Mix Bus A and Stereo Submix inserts, plus an independent Fusion Insert on patch. The simple vertical layout of the panel is intuitive, with high-quality rotary controllers for Vintage Drive, EQ, compression and precision stereo image control, plus four user buttons with indicators.
