Solid State Logic Duende Mini FireWire DSP Processor

The SSL Duende Mini puts the legendary Solid State Logic sound within your DAW in a portable package that is more affordable than ever. The Mini is a stylish little 'one third rack width', all metal construction, desktop box that hooks up to your computer via Firewire. This rugged unit is ideal for small studios or laptop based DAW users. Mini makes a stack of DSP processing power available to drive up to 16 mono channels of plug-in processing (at sample rates up to 96kHz) within your host application.
