I bought the SSL2 and Bus2 plugin package a month ago and didn't know anything about the 360 mixing software. Downloaded it today and I'm totally in love with it and can't wait to start mixing with SSL 2 on every track in my Studio One. Now I'm thinking if it works really well and sounds great I'm gonna have to get the UC-1! 😲
I have uc1 from last year and is amazing how the workflow and the way of make a decisión in mixing change when you ear more than you look the screen LOVE IT
Great vid man!! I have the uc1 and love it!! I use it with my C24 control surface from Avid using VControl Pro - FIRE!!! I live in Oxford, UK and have been to SSL Hq in Begbroke (a tiny village 5 miles outside Oxford) many times and can tell you the update is coming soon with UC1 follow UF8 and its gonna blow your mind! Also look out for 2 more software, native plugins and the dedicated Transport controller!!! You heard it here first!
I really am enjoying my UC1. I'm seriously considering selling my FaderPort 8 and moving to the UF8! Thanks! I've smashed all the smashers! Salutations from astonishingly grey, wet & weirdly back to normal Ireland! ☘☮🤘🏽🤠👍🏽☮☘
Cool. I just got the Channel Strip2 and the Bus Compressor2 today in the bundle sale. Gotta work with what I got without the UC1 and the other controller. SSL gear stay expensive, but it’s quality.
I just have discovered your channel and I must say it's all very good, from the actual reviews, to the video editing, bravo! and cheers from Marseille (France)
I've been using my Tascam US2400 for 10 years and have it customized with Cubase 10.5. I plan on adding the SSL UC1. Thank you for the video I enjoyed your review.
Great vid and great song, love it. I own the ssl channel strip and bus compressor VST’s and I really like them. But after watching this I’m gonna consider the hardware. Well done
Thanks for the real video. The track is great. I got a couple of 8's and a UC-1, these are great pieces if you do the homework and dig in deep on them. 100% that hope they get the UC-1 to follow tracks identified in the 8.Be great for workflow.
I have an SSL Fusion and the SSL Bus + I also have an 8 fader presonus fader port. I think since I am a Studio One 5 user I think I would prefer the 16 fader port unit from presonus. Thanks for sharing
First good video I’ve seen with using uf8. I love my uf8 - one of the best things I’ve ever bought just one thing that really lets it down is that the automation section just doesn’t work with ableton unless I am missing something 🤔
Thanks man glad you enjoyed the video and the automation with Ableton they were supposed to be this weird work around that I’m just not interested in so I just draw it in Maybe they will come up with the update that will make it work
Great video I was nervous about purchasing the UF8 because I didn't know if it was fully compatible with ableton the way I needed it to be, but u completely changed my mind. Keep up the great work
Dope video brother. Subscribed. I’m loving the Ssl new direction. But my avid s1 And dock is so next level in logic. Avid just sucks at marketing they need to get young talent and Take protocols to 2023
Thanks man. I have a UF8, not sure about the UC1 and the SSL plugins, been a long time user of iZotope plugins in the mix. Going for the Fusion for mastering along with the Elektron analogue heat, a great combination. 👍👍
I now have the UC1 and I think my mixes are much better with the SSL plugins. I also am using the Fusion now for my mastering, makes a big difference. Thanks again.
I am rebuilding my studio to something I've never had. It will have the 500 series analog gear. And the SSL setup you have. I would love your help on understanding how I can make that work.
Hey man I would love to help I do consultations with studio builds and Gear and show you how to run them if you want to do that just let me know the best way to reach me is Instagram
Love the UC1, let’s me use my earsnknstead of my eyes. I’ve never made good use of DAW controllers, I always seem to end up using my keyboard and mouse. I don’t have any trouble mixing with my ears when it comes to running faders on screen. But eq and compression it’s too easy to mix with the eyes. Great vid!
Hey man I appreciate that I couldn't agree more with some of the statements my DAW controller comes in clutch sometimes I find myself using it more and more these days with my mixes but I definitely enjoy all the gear
I only wish that the UF8 had dedicated buttons to play stop rewind forward and record. As much as I love the set up that you have I’m still considering the nucleus
Great insights, thanks for sharing! I also like to point out for people who might not be able to afford the SSL controller(s), it's possible to route each knob of the channel strip to any other external midi controller that has turnable knobs on them.
With respect, the point you made about the UC1 not synching to what is selected in the DAW kind of means you are kind of mixing with your eyes. The whole point of the UC1 is to almost never have to open the plug in window. Just grab the knob on the UC1 and scroll to the channel you want to EQ. You don't even have to look at the monitor to do it. Much less open the plug in window. It isn't meant to integrate with the UF8 this way. This is the main reason I dumped the Console 1 for the UC1. I can see what channel I'm working on on the UC1 ON the UC1, instead of just a number (1-20) and a light at the top of Console 1. In any event, great video!
there no reason a midi controller shouldn't be able to follow DAW track selection. I dont own a UC1 so maybe it can on other software DAWS. but if you have 20+ tracks its a hell off a lot quicker to select the track in the DAW.
@@flipnap2112: With most controllers this is true. And most controllers do this. The Softube Console 1 doesn't do this in Pro Tools (because it uses HUI), but it does in all other DAW's. However, the UC1 is not a DAW Controller. It only controls 2 plug ins. The SSL Channel Strip and Buss Compressor. That's it. It is better to think of the UC1 like it's an emulatioh of a physical SSL console. It's made to emulate the workflow of mixing on a physical desk. It does this amazingly well and has sped up my mixing 10 fold. Selecting a track first so the controller will follow doesn't make sense. You wouldn't select a channel in your DAW if your tracks were going out to a physical mixer before you started EQ'ing that channel would you? There's no need to select, much less open the plugin interface. You can see the track name you're editing on the UC1 itself and start turning knobs. It cuts out the middle man, and it does it incredibly well.
Hey Tone , Happy New Year!! Nice video, I'm trying to figure out if it makes sense to get UC1 if i already have the B6+Bus +-Fusion would workflow get complicated just to have two ssl plugins which i already own?
Dude, sick video! I was wondering if it's possible to have banks on the UF8, like kick bus, snare bus, guitar bus, and then a bank for my individual mics or samples. This would make it perfect for my set up. Also, is it possible for the UF faders to control the level of the SSL plug ins and not the fader in the DAW? Thanks a lot for the attention!
I enjoyed your video and subscribed to you today. I enjoy mixing other peoples multitracks from a raw state to a final mix. To do this I use Logic and a handful of plugins from Waves and although I say it myself, from an amateur home studio perspective, they came out really good. I am looking to progress to the to actual SSL software Channel strip 2 and also the master bus compressor. Those plugins from SSL add up to £850 UK Pounds. If I purchase the SSL UC-1 It appears I get the hardware console and the software comes free for £515 UK pounds - That appears a no brainer unless I am missing something? Peter.
Great video! Since you are using Ableton: Did you experience any problems with the metering / level indicators on UF8 ? I am running on M1 and Monterey plus Live 11 (Beta) for M1. The meters kind of follow, but very much delayed and sometimes they drop out entirely (and then they come back). In comparison, I tried with Logic on the same computer and it runs flawlessly, I am also controlling my RME interface through the 3rd layer on UF8 and the meters are very much mirroring what the Totalmix Software of RME tells me (in terms of level metering). My suspicion is that this is related to the amount of MIDI updates occuring. Any hints would be great.
Honestly it really depends on the project I generally use audioscape But sometimes if it’s something fast I’ll throw in the plug-in and I’ll get pretty good results that way also but I prefer the hardware to my ears it has more dimension specially front to back
@@TouchToneDSG Thanks again for your input. I too uses Audioscape in my Flock Audio patch. Was considering the Fusion, but... I kinda max out my inputs/ouputs with the other Audioscape gears! Man, I love their stuff.
Nice video and great song, I did added a like on Spotify. Do we know if now we can just select a track on the UF8 and it would become focus on the UC1? That’s really a feature I would love to be able to navigate quickly between tracks and just touch the one we need, directly from the UF8 and then just adjust all controls on the channel strip with the UC1. I hope it makes sense :)
Hey man I appreciate you liking it on Spotify as far as that new feature that has not been an update yet I’ve reached out to them and they did say they are working on it and should be in the future update so that’s promising
@@TouchToneDSG yeah, I think that’s really the one feature that is missing and would make the whole setup so great and even faster to work. Just select, bam you can adjust, select another track, bam adjust it… Since it’s all part of their software anyway, I don’t see why it wouldn’t sync if we wanted to. We’ll see
hi brother ... i am italian and i watched your video with subtitles. I am undecided whether to take combo console 1 or ssl uf8 uc1 ... what do you advise me brother ??? I hope in your answer
It depends on what you’re going for if you want the SSL sound hands-down the UC one but if you are looking to mix it up and get other flavors the console one my only gripe about the Consol one is that I had to use my eyes also to mix with the UC1 I really get to use my ears and I find that my mixes are more of what I want quickly with the UC1
@@TouchToneDSG Well maybe all your EQ knobs were set the same for each track.. just found that odd.. my impression was that the hardware knobs were encoders I have now learned that is not the case and that there is a display that shows the knob settings.
awesome my. brother your track is Fire , is the light under the Controler made by the UF AND UC1 or is a separate LED ? if it is what is it looks really cool

Thanks for your video! I would have 1 question please, how does the uf8 behave with groups, if you collapse the group, will it "collapse" on the uf8 as well? Like if you collapse your first group will the 2nd fader be the next group? Thanks a lot.
Informative video. I was thinking of buying the UC1 to use with Presonus Studio One 5 software and also with the StudioLive 32S Mixer/DAW controller....I hope they'll work well together should I decide to buy one. Thanks for doing the video... Phil NYC Area
@@TouchToneDSG Thanks for the reply. I just wish that the SSL UC1 model could map to other plugins, like the Rocksolid Control Strip 2 model can do. That would be a lot easier decision which one to buy. Thanks again. Phil NYC Area
@TouchToneDSG 4 months later.... I was wondering, did you ever considered a Push 2 instead? I know it does not have faders, but it can controls plugins + Abletons + SSl plugins too... . Let me know! :)
I had the push 2 For about three years if not more before this and it’s a great tool but once you start mixing heavy it’s limited and that’s where this came in
@@TouchToneDSG Thanks man! Love your channel. I kinda wish Maschine would have some template to control Abletons (like a real mixer) . There is actually one... but meh...
@@Yannleon_video Thanks man you know what bro I know which one you’re talking about and I totally agree with you I think they’re missing out on a huge market
Nice video ! On the fence (still) about this combo or the Console 1 combo. Would love to hear your opinions with a VS video sometime. Subbed from downunder 🇦🇺
Hey man first of all thanks I appreciate the sub secondly it’s a tough call I love this combo right now and if you’re into the SSL sound it’s where it’s at but the console one is much more versatile due to the different emulations it has but this is easier to work with and you don’t have to look at a screen while you’re working with them but if you don’t mind doing that maybe the Console one this sound is unbeatable in my opinion
@@TouchToneDSG Love to hear some actual audio caparisons. Gotta say though, your mixes sound pretty clean. Always thought the 4000 sounded nice, but if you mix on a 9000 then maybe I'm a changed man.
@@vdub4216 So are used to be really heavy on the 4000 but once I started using the 9000 in my opinion it’s much more versatile you can drive it and get your saturation or you can keep it clean but still get that powerful mix
I don't know if you can physically join the two I don't think so unless it's in some sort of chamber that makes that happen other than that my mat you can find and the description below
Hey TouchTone i need your help , could you show me how to scoop out mud on the UC1. i normally use a eq 8 so im used to visualizing the frequency chart opposed to using my ear and i am a bit lost with regards to scooping out mud. hope to hear from you soon. Cheers bro Bryan
5000 usd stuff but not produce any sound ? nah i have mouse or some cheap touchscreen monitor can do all that thing .... i can invest to gear who make sound instead like a pre.s eq compresor outboard gear mic etc
let me know if you have these pieces or you plan on getting them and what’s your favorite part about them?
Still digging the UF8 since you have the Big 6?

Does the UC 1 only control “registered” ssl plugins? or will I need to I mean my friend need to buy a legit copy of the plug-in?
🤣🤣 that I don't know
@TouchToneDSG 4 months later.... I was wondering, did you ever considered a Push 2 instead? I know it does not have faders, but it can controls plugins + Abletons + SSl plugins too... . Let me know! :)
I had the push 2 For about three years if not more before this and it’s a great tool but once you start mixing heavy it’s limited and that’s where this came in
@@TouchToneDSG Thanks man! Love your channel. I kinda wish Maschine would have some template to control Abletons (like a real mixer) . There is actually one... but meh...
@@Yannleon_video Thanks man you know what bro I know which one you’re talking about and I totally agree with you I think they’re missing out on a huge market
Hi, is it great for Pro Tools? Thanks
I'm sure it is
great video!
Thank you man
Nice video ! On the fence (still) about this combo or the Console 1 combo. Would love to hear your opinions with a VS video sometime. Subbed from downunder 🇦🇺
Hey man first of all thanks I appreciate the sub secondly it’s a tough call I love this combo right now and if you’re into the SSL sound it’s where it’s at but the console one is much more versatile due to the different emulations it has but this is easier to work with and you don’t have to look at a screen while you’re working with them but if you don’t mind doing that maybe the Console one this sound is unbeatable in my opinion
@@TouchToneDSG Love to hear some actual audio caparisons. Gotta say though, your mixes sound pretty clean. Always thought the 4000 sounded nice, but if you mix on a 9000 then maybe I'm a changed man.
@@vdub4216 So are used to be really heavy on the 4000 but once I started using the 9000 in my opinion it’s much more versatile you can drive it and get your saturation or you can keep it clean but still get that powerful mix
Can you apply several instances of the buss compressor to different busses with different settings?
Asked many as you want its will only showing up to 8 at a time
Hi - nice video... can you physically join the two units together? Also, what is the mat with the led strip below them?
I don't know if you can physically join the two I don't think so unless it's in some sort of chamber that makes that happen other than that my mat you can find and the description below
@@TouchToneDSG Thanks!
Hey TouchTone i need your help , could you show me how to scoop out mud on the UC1. i normally use a eq 8 so im used to visualizing the frequency chart opposed to using my ear and i am a bit lost with regards to scooping out mud.
hope to hear from you soon.
Cheers bro
Bryan
I can maybe do a video or go live about it sometime because you definitely have to use your ears more
@@TouchToneDSG
Thanks a lot man. Ps love the channel and your videos
Do the UC1 and UF8 physically attach to each other or do you simply sit them next to each other?
@TouchToneDSG I was hoping for an answer instead of just a “like” 😂
You just sitting next to each other but the stands on the back of them are identical so they can sit flush with each other
@@TouchToneDSG Ah! Thank you!!! Great video btw! Helps a lot with my decision to buy or not!
No problem man my pleasure I tried to comment on it earlier and for some reason I got removed I don’t know why but it is what it is thank you man
awesome! but still didnt answer the last question lol
What question was that
UC1 AND UF8 is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I tried to hide my excitement with this one but I just couldn’t I love this combo
ur beat is dope man
Thank you man 💯 I appreciate that
Do you still use the BiG SiX?
Everyday
5000 usd stuff but not produce any sound ? nah i have mouse or some cheap touchscreen monitor can do all that thing .... i can invest to gear who make sound instead like a pre.s eq compresor outboard gear mic etc
Where do you get 5000
Do you still use the uf8 and uc1?
I use the UF8 still UC1 I haven't had for about a year I picked up the UF1
