SSL System T S300-48

Introduction

S300-48 Control Surface

The new S300-48 is a fixed layout 48+1 fader compact control surface that can be
combined with the complete portfolio of SSL’s ground-breaking System T consoles,
remote tiles and screen interfaces, Tempest Processing Engines, and Network I/O
options. It can be specified as part of a larger System T installation or in stand-alone
configurations for smaller broadcast facilities or OB vehicles.

SSL System T’s unique approach allows all surface variants to utilise the samesoftware, this provides full flexibility and interoperability across the entire range. Allsurfaces benefit from all software features including full AoIP routing from the console,
DAW control, immersive audio, Dynamic Automation, Access Control, Event Manager,
Scene Automation and a fully featured onboard FX Rack.

S300-48 provides a larger fader count and multi operator usage in the System T S300
form factor. Channel metering directly above each fader provides direct monitoring andcontrol of signals on the current surface layers, with an overview providing meteringof console wide signals. S300 sits alongside the larger S500 and S500m System T
surface options which provide additional configurable metering capability for larger
productions. TCR and T-SOLSA software brings System T to virtualised and remotecontrolled studios, providing an audio console without the traditional control surface.

AoIP functionality is further enhanced with Dante and DDM support directly in theconsole software. All System T and Network I/O devices simultaneously support Dante,
ST 2110, ST 2022-7, ST 2059-2, PTPv2 and PTPv1. AoIP routing is available from theconsole software with immediate discovery of stageboxes and the ability to resourceshare directly from the console. Leverage the benefits of AoIP and let the workflow
define the deployment. Enjoy the scalability, flexibility and dynamic scenarios an IP
infrastructure can provide, immediately.
