The SSL Fusion Transformer Plug-in recreates the distinctive character of an analogue transformer within your digital audio workstation. It captures the complex interplay of high-frequency phase shift, harmonic distortion, and natural low-frequency roll-off that defines the sonic mojo of classic analogue transformers. This effect adds warmth and depth to your audio, emulating the 600-ohm, 1:1-wound under-damped transformer found in the SSL Fusion hardware.

Designed to enhance vocals, instruments, mixes, and masters, the Transformer Plug-in introduces subtle presence and body as well as tight low-end and shimmering high-end clarity. The SHINE control lets you attenuate high-frequency phase shift, while the AMOUNT control increases harmonic distortion, pushing the sound beyond the original hardware’s capabilities. These features provide flexible tonal shaping, allowing you to add analogue weight and authority to your tracks with ease.

Built on the SSL Plug-in Engine, this plug-in supports Apple M1 processors natively and offers low-latency ECO mode for tracking. It includes a MIX control for parallel processing, LF EXTEND to adjust low-frequency response, and a user-friendly interface with built-in help and undo/redo functionality. Modelled through detailed measurements and collaboration with the original hardware designers, the SSL Fusion Transformer Plug-in delivers authentic analogue warmth with modern convenience and precision.
