Equaliser Section
The 4000 E EQ had several design iterations, each offering engineers very different
characteristics and capabilities when sculpting sounds.
The 4K E Plug-in includes them all; the original ’02 Brown’ knob renowned for its grit,
the rare passive ‘132 Orange’ knob, and the cleaner ‘242 Black’ knob with its
legendary low-end weight.
Filters IN

Low-Pass Filter
Engaged when moved from the out position, with a cutoff down to 3 kHz.
High-Pass Filter

HF Band
High frequency shelf with ±15 dB gain between 1.5 kHz to 16 kHz, with optional bell curve
modifier.
MHF Band

EQ Type
The 4000 E had several design iteration, and included different EQ and filters over its
lifetime. the SSL 4K E offers all three.
1. Black Button In = '242 Black' EQ and filters.
2. Orange Button In = '132 Orange' EQ and filters.
3. Buttons Out/Brown = '02 Brown' EQ and filters.
LMF Band
Low-mid frequency bell filter with variable Q width and ±15 dB gain control from 200 Hz &
2.5 kHz.
LF Band
Low frequency shelf with ±15 dB gain from 30 Hz to 450 Hz, with optional bell curve
modifier.
Dynamics Section
Flexibility is at the heart of SSL channel compression; it’s designed to smooth and
enhance almost any signal. Several revisions were made over the course of
the lifetime of the SL 4000 E console, but ‘Revision 4’ is what we consider to be the
