Solid State Logic will debut the new S400 console and a variety of enhancements for its System T broadcast audio production platform as part of its V4.1 software update during IBC 2024, Sept. 13-16, at the RAI Amsterdam Convention Center.
Featuring flagship control for live-to-air broadcast applications in a compact and cost-effective format, the new S400 is well-suited for OB, event space and music applications, or anywhere premium control features are required but space is a consideration, the company said.
The S400 console offers the same high-quality fader experience as the S500, featuring premium 100mm touch-sense faders and a dedicated OLED display for every fader. Level metering and status LEDs covering dynamics, auto mix and external control are also present by every fader to further enhance visual feedback for operators, it said.

These join advanced immersive panning tools, a range of multichannel FX, including the SSL Bus Compressor, multiband compression, Dynamic EQ and delays as well as sophisticated Link Bus architecture for dynamics processing across objects and beds.
Additional studio-quality FXs are added to the System T FX rack, including SSL's highly regarded Blitzer vibe compressor and Sourcerer isolator. Parallel compression on every audio path is also now available, with each channel dynamics section now featuring a wet/dry control, it said.
