US $44.99 SSL Essentials Bundle - Channel Strip 2 & Bus Compressor 2 (was $499)
https://plugindiscounts.com/product/...ntials-bundle/
“The Solid State Logic Essentials Bundle includes SSL Channel Strip 2 & SSL Bus Compressor 2. SSL Channel Strip 2 emulates the venerable SSL 9000K SuperAnalogue large-format console – an evolution of the 4000E – with the classic 4-band parametric EQ, filter, compressor, and expander/gate configuration. You can switch between the legendary E-series and G-series EQ profiles for added flexibility. The SSL Bus Compressor 2 is a spot-on digital re-creation of the legendary bus compressor featured on countless hit records. Celebrated for its ability to glue together a mix for a radio-ready sound, few bus compressors are as universally revered. We’re excited to offer this incredible bundle that’s perfect for those starting their journey into the recording arts or seasoned pros who want the sound of an SSL board with the convenience of a plug-in.”

There was a recent thread throwing doubt on SSL's track record of supporting their plugins going forward.

These 2 plug-ins are so good and seriously cheap at $44.99 for both, I wouldn’t be peeved if the company stopped supporting them at midnight tonight, because they already sound really good in Pro Tools.

Re: US $44.99 SSL Essentials Bundle - Channel Strip 2 & Bus Compressor 2 (was $499)
Thanks for the heads up unkJE!
It seems they are trying to attract new customers, a bunch of them actually. I've stayed away from their plugins for a while as they are pricey (makes sense why) and I am blown away that they would discount them like this. Is this the first time they put their plugins on sale? Like in 2022 first time? I bought a few of them on the previous sale, last month or so was it? Stupidly I bought them from a 3rd party seller and not direct which I always prefer to do. I thought it was an exclusive sale through this 3rd party site.. Now I know they offer their on sale products directly on their website.. I am buying the Channel Strip and Buss Comp from the SSL website this time.

Then the past year, the rest of the native line, one at a time, $29-49, I think, or thereabouts. I'm certainly not worried about them "abandoning their plugins" like it's said in the other thread. Remember, if you plan to get the UC1 controller, it comes with the ch.strip/comp licenses. They sound wonderful and together with the controller, it's really great.

Re: US $44.99 SSL Essentials Bundle - Channel Strip 2 & Bus Compressor 2 (was $499)
As a long time SSL hardware user and software user as well as a beta tester they are definitely not abandoning anything but again have moved on from certain pieces they can’t support… The SSL sigma which I love is no longer being manufactured so I am crossing my fingers that the plug-in component for it will continue to work I intentionally bought it earlier Mac M one for the Big Sur compatibility with the Sigma
All in all I would recommend anyone to buy this bundle for such a great deal it just works and it’s probably one of the best sounding SSL plug-ins out there… Yes the waves one is emulating an older consul but this one works on everything almost

Re: US $44.99 SSL Essentials Bundle - Channel Strip 2 & Bus Compressor 2 (was $499)
These are fantastic and I only recall them being this price once before in 2020 like mentioned above.
The bus compressor really is that good. And no fake analog junk. I think this is the same or very similar code they use in their digital consoles. Clean but well thought out and effective. I don't usually use channel strips but this is likewise a great one.
