Interesting, it looks like a valid competitor to Timeless 3

 

Wow!!!! the SSL Plugin Engine...

 

Timeless 3 can do more with powerful modulators.

 

Yes, and I would like to test them together with Softube Tape Echoes

 

More like a competitor to U-he's Satin delay section.

 

What is this SSL Plug-in Engine they are talking about?

Important detail : Price $149.00

 

Where can you get that at this price?

 

Yes, it is quite expensive, I can buy it for 119 €, even if it is in line with the prices of the other tape delays.

 

SSL marketing is funny

If its as good as their channel strip 2 which is imo the best sounding SSL channel strip then this could be good.
