![]() The G, on the other hand, have more mid-range, which is great for rock’n’roll energy". ![]() The article mentions that, for these frequency response reasons, that "The E-Channel has a bit more roundness, which is what I’m looking for with pop, R&B and hip-hop. If I, for any reasons, should choose between E- and G-Channel, what would you recommend?Īs far as I understand general discussions and the comparison article at Waves' website, the E-Channel would be suitable for "surgical tonal shaping" (or whatsoever), which means for me: Since I have for example the Toneboosters EQ for these tasks, I really don't care about clean frequency responses when thinking about SSL modelled plugins. I generally pick Waves for SSL sound out of that batch for conveniences. In the end, you can get that SSL sound from all of the offerings. I have used a 4K desk multiple times and own the Waves/Brainworxs/SSL Duende/Console 1/OverTone DSP/UAD versions of plugs. In fact, i think the waves SSL is the only one that really nails the gate. I've tried all of them, and i find the waves perfectly fine. I also don't get people saying that waves SSL is dated. The G Channel EQ has very wide filters, where as the E is more surgical. Now this is totally my guess on why people say it sounds harsh. So if you A/B them to each other, the G channel EQ will tend to sound harsher then the E channel due to the filter design. Where as the G, has a bit of a cut on the start of the filter and is more traditional high shelf. The E Shelf has almost a bell characteristic to it. The curves are quite different between them. Why is the G Strip sounds Harsh: I tend to agree with this statement, however, i think its not so much the G Strip as much as comparing it to the E Strip. Im quite familiar with the 4K and SSL sound. I'll probably just stick with G-Channel and put the money towards Brainworx Console G instead when it's next on sale. Thanks for your detailed and helpful post. Oh, meant to say that you can find it $3 and change cheaper at AudioDeluxe and possibly elsewhere as well. Although the knobs on offer and settings for each appear to be identical in both plug-ins, there is a difference. ![]() I have the G-Channel as well and am deliberating all this myself vis a vis whether I'm going to buy it. #WAVES SSL 4000 MANUAL SERIES#I have a couple of 4000E racked channel strips, but more seasoned SSL users than myself would need to weigh in as to how significant the actual differences are in these two G series options. #WAVES SSL 4000 MANUAL MANUALS#Whereas the manual for the SSL G-Equalizer states, "The SSL G-Equalizer is modeled after the rack-mounted version of SSL’s G 292 EQ." You can refer to the manuals (if you haven't) for more details.Īctual 4000-G series consoles came in both 292 and 383 flavors. The WAVES manual for the SSL 4000 Collection says about the SSL G-Channel that it "is modeled after the SL4000 G Series console, combining the dynamics section of the SL4000 channel strip with the 383 G EQ." I already have G-Channel and was wondering if the separate G-Channel Equaliser plugin is redundant if you already G-Channel? Have they just extracted the EQ section from the G-Channel plugin and made a separate plugin or is there anything different in the EQ plugin?I have the G-Channel as well and am deliberating all this myself vis a vis whether I'm going to buy it. Waves have a 24 hour sale on all the SSL plugins for $29 each.
