What it is

SSL Guitarstrip is a channel strip plugin from Solid State Logic built specifically for guitar tracks. It bundles four purpose-built processing modules - drive emulation, EQ, compression, and phase correction - into a single plugin that works at both the tracking and mixing stages. The plugin draws on SSL's analog heritage to deliver studio-grade guitar processing.

Who it's for

Producers and engineers who record electric, acoustic, or bass guitar and want a single plugin that handles the full processing chain, from adding warmth and grit with analog drive emulation to fixing phase problems between multiple guitar takes.

Key features

• The DRIVE module offers two analog-modeled emulations - guitar amp and bass amp - with BOOST, PUNCH, EDGE, and SHAPE controls for dialing in anything from subtle saturation to full overdrive
• A dedicated COMPRESSOR section provides five preset response characteristics for quickly adding punch or taming transients
• The PHASE CORRECTION module uses DELAY, PHASE INVERT, and ALLPASS filters to identify and fix phase issues between multiple guitar recordings
• The phase delay can also be repurposed as a quick way to widen a mono guitar signal into a stereo spread
