Solid State Logic SSL Live Consoles

As of version 4.11, SSL now supports Open Sound Control (OSC). SSL Live consoles can now remotely control other devices over their connectivity network ports. This is a bidirectional integration for SPAT Revolution.

SSL Live SPAT OSC Swiches

With Solid State Logic live consoles, up to eight Fader (i.e., continuously variable) and eight Switch parameters per third-party device channel may be defined for control by the console. These control parameters (OSC messages) going out to SPAT Revolution source/objects are accessible from each console audio path and dedicated OSC paths with no associated console audio processing. The provided template has all these configurations done for you, but you can decide to customize with different or fewer parameters.
