MacOS
SSL interfaces are class compliant and work directly with macOS Core Audio — there is no driver. Simply select the SSL as the sound device in System Preferences and you are ready to go. SSL interfaces are tested on macOS versions that are supported by Apple at the time of their release. Please refer to the System Requirements on the specific SSL product's page for more detailed information. Older versions of MacOS that are no longer maintained by Apple are not tested by SSL but may still work. SSL does not support Mac OS versions that are no longer maintained by Apple.
Windows
SSL 1 is ARM compatible.
SSL 1 requires our ASIO Driver to be installed on Windows. The SSL 1 ASIO drivers are multiclient (multi-client). This means multiple ASIO apps can use the interface simultaneously.
iOS and Android
USB interface information
Both of the connectors on the back of the SSL 1 are USB-C. SSL 1 is a USB 2.0 device.
USB 2.0 specifies a maximum length of 5 meters (16 feet). Beyond that length you must use a powered hub or powered extender.
USB hubs
Wherever possible, it is best to connect directly to USB on your computer.
If you must connect via a hub, choose one with sufficient current specifications that will provide reliable performance; not all USB hubs are created equally.
We recommend the use of a powered USB 2.0 hub; ie a hub that has an external DC power supply and USB 2.0 ports for your devices.
Please note that you will still need to use a USB cable of suitable length with a powered USB hub.
SSL do not make specific recommendations on USB hubs
Thunderbolt USB
Thunderbolt 3 and 4 use the USB-C connector type and are normally compatible with all USB devices directly.
Thunderbolt 2 uses a different connector and requires a Thunderbolt 2 to USB adapter.
