Solid State Logic continues to expand its powerful lineup of plug-ins and software for its SSL 360° platform, this time announcing its new Meter Pro plug-in whilst also updating its renowned SSL 360° software to v1.9. The new pro metering plug-in provides users with real-time, precise analysis for a variety of audio tasks, seamlessly integrating and controllable via SSL’s UF1 DAW controller. Additionally, the SSL 360° V1.9 update brings even more power and capabilities to owners of UF1, UF8, and UC1 controllers.

Designed for music and audio professionals, Meter Pro is an advanced all-in-one metering system offering a suite of real-time audio analysis tools. Among the tools included are Loudness metering, a Real-Time Analyser (RTA), True Peak and RMS level monitoring, phase coherence analysis, and stereo balance evaluation. Meter Pro supports multichannel configurations up to 7.1.4 channels, making it suitable for stereo music, 5.1 film audio, and formats like Dolby Atmos for immersive audio production.

With its extensive audio analysis capabilities, Meter Pro equips music producers, mix engineers, and mastering engineers with the essential tools to create balanced audio that translates seamlessly across playback systems, while offering valuable insights to help streamline decisions for a smarter, faster workflow.

When paired with the SSL UF1 controller, users can access Meter Pro directly via UF1’s hardware controls and analyse audio content through its large 4.3” IPS display. This integration optimises screen real estate for your DAW while ensuring Meter Pro remains visible at all times on UF1’s high-resolution screen.

SSL 360 v1.9 update for UF8, UF1, and UC1
Key updates in SSL 360 software v1.9 include full support for the aforementioned Meter Pro plug-in, as well as support for the Apple M4 chip on all SSL 360-enabled plug-ins. Further, all 360-enabled channel strip plug-ins, including 4K E, 4K B, Channel Strip 2, 360 Link, and 360 Link Bus Compressor all now contain gesture control; meaning that UF8/UF1 owners can write TOUCH automation from the Plug-in Mixer Layer.

Other new features include UF8 and UF1 DAW profiles for FL Studio and Samplitude/ Sequoia, and VST3 DAW control integration for FL Studio & Mixbus 11. There are also improvements and bug fixes for both SSL 12 and SSL 18 audio interfaces. Finally, an Invert Rotary feature has been added to SSL 360 Link/Link Bus Compressor plug-ins, bringing even more flexibility to 3rd party plug-in control from UC1.
