Content

ongratulations on your purchase of Duende – the SSL processing solution for your audio workstation. As you’re sat here

reading this, the chances are that you have a pretty good understanding of who we are and our outstanding reputation in audio

recording technology. How did we get here? Well, there were no great plans to make SSL into a major manufacturer of mixing

consoles when it all started back in the seventies - the company began with nothing more than an enthusiasm for music and

the concept of recording. Along the way that spirit, coupled with a passion for excellence in music recording tools, helped build

a multi-million dollar international business. The SSL HQ may be a little bigger now than it was in the seventies, but passion

and innovation still lies at its heart.

In 2005, we decided to embark on a technology project to figure out how we could take the processing power of a console and

squeeze it into a 1U rack, so we could serve up the SSL sound to home and project studio owners who don’t have the budget

(or the floor space!) required to install a large-format console.

Drawing on our unique understanding of audio processing and years of DSP know-how, our team of engineers set about

creating the SSL processing solution for your DAW environment. We knew we needed serious DSP horsepower to

accommodate our powerful algorithms, and we knew it had to come in a package that could integrate seamlessly with the

most popular workstations … and so Duende was born.

Based on the digital technology behind SSL’s -Series consoles, Duende delivers the complete SSL mix experience – powerful

channel and dynamics processing and the legendary Bus ompressor.

Duende offers complete integration into the most popular workstation environments with one simple FireWire cable connection.

The different processing blocks appear as VST/AU/RTAS plug-ins – and include an authentic SSL channel strip with filters,

E and G series EQ and dynamics processing, as well as the legendary SSL Bus ompressor. We hope you will enjoy mixing

your music with Duende.

3. In tallation

Please note that this document is intended to be read alongside the ‘Installation Guide’ provided with Duende,

alternatively you can download a copy from http://solid-state-logic.com/music/Duende.

Once your Duende hardware and software has been properly installed, Duende plug-ins are accessed and used just like any

host-based plug-in. You can run Duende plug-ins simultaneously with your other host based plug-ins in any combination.

All Duende plug-ins support up to 40bit 96kHz operation. Please note that Duende plug-ins use twice as much DSP resources

at 96kHz.

Duende parameters are changed by dragging, rotating or clicking knobs and buttons, whose behavior varies slightly depending

on which software is being used to host the plug-ins. Generally the further away the mouse pointer is from the knob, the more

resolution is available for parameter adjustment.

When the mouse cursor is hovered over a knob it’s value is displayed in the appropriate units. At any point you can see exactly

what value a knob has without touching it. If you have a mouse with scroll wheel, it can be used to change the knob position.

Windows XP:

To reset a knob to its default value hold 'Ctrl + click' on that knob.

For very fine adjustment, hold 'SHIFT' whilst dragging.

OS X:

To reset a knob to its default value hold 'Command + click' on that knob.

For very fine adjustment, hold 'SHIFT' whilst dragging.

Every Duende plug-in parameter can be automated so long as parameter automation is supported by the host application. The

method for recording and editing automation varies from host to host. For specific instructions on using automation with the

host consult the host application documentation.

4. Operational Overview

4.1 Duende Preferences/Control Panel

Windows XP S X

The Duende Preferences/ ontrol Panel shows information about your Duende(s) such as serial number (Authentication ID),

firmware version and driver version. It also displays DSP resource information and allows you to easily see how much DSP

you have available at any time.

Windows XP:

The panel can be found in ‘Start Menu>Programs>Solid State Logic>Duende’ or in the Windows control panel.

OS X:

The panel can be found by navigating to 'Apple Menu>System Preferences>SSL Duende'.

Each mono plug-in loaded into Duende will take up one slot, a '1' representing a used slot and a ‘Ø’ or '–' representing an unused

slot. At 44.1 and 48kHz there are 32 slots available and at 88.2 and 96kHz there are 16 slots available. A stereo version of a

plug in will take up 2 slots.

4.2 Launching a Duende plug-in

Each host application has its own particular methods for

instantiating (launching) a plug-in. onsult the host

application documentation for specific instructions on loading

and using plug-ins within the application.
