Description
The SSL 1015 Lowpass Gate is a modern “Vactrol” VCA / VCF module inspired by Don Buchla’s original 292C. Depending on the selected mode, a lowpass gate can act as a VCA, 2-pole lowpass filter, or VCA/VCF combination which is well known for creating organic plucky sounds. When in filter mode, the 1015 adds a unique resonance feedback which allows a variety of controlled percussive sounds and wild oscillations.
Previous lowpass gate designs used cadmium-sulfide photocells (CdS) which are currently banned in the EU and possibly several other nations. The SSL 1015 may be one of the first to utilize a Vactrol design that replaces the CdS photocells with a newer technology – helping protect our environment and is therefore welcomed Worldwide.
An option for the CdS version is available at additional charge by direct factory request for USA based shipments only.
