Mic Pre’s with Prestige

The PURE DRIVE OCTO harnesses Solid State Logic’s renowned SuperAnalogue PureDrive™ microphone preamp technology, originally featured in the ORIGIN console. This advanced unit introduces a new DRIVE mode, comprehensive connectivity, and state-of-the-art digital conversion, all within a compact 8-channel 2U rackmount format. The ORIGIN recording console, a contemporary-classic from SSL, first introduced the groundbreaking PureDrive™ microphone preamplifier. This innovative preamp maintains the clarity and punch of SSL’s previous designs while also offering the flexibility to switch its character to a warm, harmonically rich, and driven tone that varies with gain.
