Solid State Logic SSL Meter

What SSL Meter Is For

SSL Meter is a measurement plug-in designed to secure your mixing and mastering decisions. It helps you maintain a clean signal (without distortion), control dynamics, stabilize the stereo image, and check mono compatibility before export. Whether you work in music production, post-production, podcasting, or live recording, it provides reliable readings of levels and phase, where the ear alone can be deceived, especially after long sessions.

Main Features

Level measurement for a clean and controlled mix

Monitor True Peak and RMS levels to avoid clipping and maintain a consistent dynamic range throughout your audio chain. SSL Meter also includes K-System metering, useful for better calibrating loudness perception and comparing your tracks to a reference, without sacrificing impact or transparency.

Phase, mono compatibility, and stereo image under control

Phase issues can reduce the energy of a mix and cause significant losses when listening in mono. With the Lissajous Phase Scope and Phase Correlation Meter, you immediately visualize cancellation risks while checking the width and stability of the stereo field. The stereo balance bar completes the analysis to maintain homogeneous panning and consistent L/R balances.

31-band real-time analyzer to refine spectral balance

The 31-band analyzer allows you to observe frequency distribution in real time and quickly identify areas saturating the mix (overly dense low-mids, harsh highs, overwhelming bass). An excellent ally to validate your EQs, control translation across different monitoring systems, and enhance master clarity.

VU/PPM and advanced customization to fit your workflow

SSL Meter combines familiar metering tools with analog-style VU and PPM meters, as well as digital meters, to better judge mix balance and transient response. Its advanced settings panel is fully configurable, allowing you to adjust the display and measurement to your working method, whether focused on music, broadcast, or post-production.

SSL 360deg integration for centralized control

Thanks to SSL 360deg integration, SSL Meter naturally fits into a modern mixing environment: simplified access to instances, visual consistency, and smoother management alongside other SSL 360deg-compatible tools. Save time while keeping a clear overview of your signal health, from track to master bus.
