AWESOME PIECE OF EQUIPMENT

Mitch and Daniel have sold more gear to the world than all other KZreadr's combined!

Mitch, you are the master of demo videos. No one else is close. I ordered my UF1 today from Sweetwater. The UF1 will join in the mixing/mastering station in my studio - with an SSL Big Six, Fusion, Bus+, UF8 and UC1 with Neumann KH 150 and KH 120 II monitors.

This is the SMARTEST low-ish budget hardware interface for a DAW yet conceived of. These three pieces (with 2-4 UF8 units) finally gives users a SERIOUS recording/mixing desk. As an older studio rat who started working in 24-track studios in 1983, I’m really glad to see it coming from SSL. But that’s just a sentimental thing on my part. 😎👍👍

Son: “should I go to college” Dad: “of course you should, your mother and I have been saving up for your tuition” **SSL releases a gear demo video** Dad: “ya know son, college isn’t for everyone”

Yes finally!!! This will be a great edition to my UC1 and UF8 🔥🔥🔥

I am soo happy they that they came out with the UF1!!! Not having Transport Controls is why I was looking else-where for a controller set-up!!! Now that being said, two things are stopping me from investing into this setup, one, their is no visual feedback like custom channel coloring, and two, no separate channel metering option (like the Avid S1 or Dock)!!! But still, the UF1 has made me take another look at the SSL possibilities!!! Thanks Mitch!!!!

I’ve been beta testing the UF1 for months and its is now a permanent feature of my system which is exactly the same as what is on show here. The UF1 is absolutely incredible and is the missing piece of the jigsaw. SSL killed it with this and the 360 software is stunning. Don’t think about it, order it. It’s a game changer!!

This new item looks fantastic! Right now I only have the UC1 but I can see what's going to be on my wish list next! Thanks!

Now with those controllers, we need racks of digitaly controled analog modules (preamps, eq's, comps, routing... - racks like the McDSP atb-16). It would be quite expensive but we could expand the console over time and mix on huge analog ssl consoles in a bedroom, with total recall

Great presentation, as always. Hats of!!

Great overview - thanks

I really like what SSL did with this concept. Its outside my budget range for all three, but its awesome.

Very cool Mitch!

Love all the SSL gear!

Nice Vid, I have the same setup and this really helped me out learning the SSL environment. Much Appreciated!

Wow this seems amazing. I will have to check this out. Looks like I will be contacting Josh my Sales Engineer about this setup.

I wish they made the SSL 12 in the same form factor as these controllers, so that we can "slot" it in the middle instead of leaving it off to the side

Great info. Awesome system...

Why won't Focusrite do this, based on the ISA Console?? It would be so perfect

Great demo Mitch! Is there a bundle deal if you purchase all 3 modules together?

i love my Setup from SSL with a little support from "MPmidi Model 2A" --> 2x SSL UF8 + UF1 + UC1 with 2+ interface and for haptical & touch control of plugins in "Presonus Studio One 6" the "MPmidi Model 2A" and NI KKS49 + Maschine3 ... and the Neumann KH120 + KH750DSP ... thats all I need to have a lot of fun inside my little Intel box 😁😁😁

I need this

If you touch a UF8's fader, does it automatically changes/adapt settings on the UC1 for the corresponding channel please ? 😌

Wow ..lovely

No one like Mitch for a first look tutorial. Thanks!

When you select a channel' out of the boundaries of available fader, with the faderbank autonatically switch to the current selection? For simplicuty, lets assume we have 24 tracks in StudioOne. And we have 8 Physical faders. Currently we have selected track 1 which can be controlled with teh first hardware fader. Now we select channel 9, do we need to manually switch the bank or will the control surface follow?

Really surprised to see that SSL didn't put backlights on the labels for the UC-1 to be able to read them in dark rooms. Both UF-1 and UF-8 are both backlit perfectly for all parameters, but not the UC-1.

Thank u🙂

Nothing beats a keyboard and a roller ball mouse , the Ssl is nice though very tempting

what model is the violet / wine red guitar behind mitch? it is a beauty!

The issue for us is that the SSL plugins aren't resizable, which makes them too tiny on our high res monitors

pre-ordered UF1 from my guy TROY at Sweetwater

Does Delay Compensation still work for plugins that are hosted within the 360 Link plugin?

Do the faders have metal finger-caps?

Why isn’t the 360 a standalone daw? That would 🔥

I want the analog sound of an ssl not a controller. Do they have a mini version of the preamp and eq?

Thanks for the info.... Sonar ? - Cakewalk by Bandlab ?

I own 2 UF8 - rack mounted with rack kit left and right side of my mastering desk with 3 racks in sweetsop’s and 12U and have another racked uc1 in the mid - on the rack kit there’s much space left and right so the rack kit have a big plate left and right - seems like ssl lack the size of combine uc1 and uf1 together in a rack size . So there’s no space for me to get this unit, if I check measurements both together are minimal more than 19“ - correct me if I’m wrong. unit is interesting but if it can’t live in 1 rack size on 6U together with a uc1 it will be deleted from my analog list.

This looks great but for the money, the softube console 1 system is hard to beat.

Is there LUFs metering?

Exellent , can we lock the control rotary in focus mod like on the faderport ?( ssl one fader unit i'm talking about ) To be honest the front is really to sharp to be used like the faderport on my left , (this needs to be integrated in desk or some imho) The meter function is superb !! Would love to know if the uf1 can control plugins and how can we customise those 4 knobs not for Daw control but for plugin ..... (mackie mod ?)

Hi, thanks for your interest! After reviewing SSL’s documentation, I don’t see a way to lock the V-pots or rotary encoder into a certain mode. However, you certainly can use the UF1 to control other plug-ins via Mackie Control. For more details, SSL’s complete user guide is available at this link: s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/eu1.download.solidstatelogic.com/UF1/SSL%20UF1%20User%20Guide_Rev1.0.pdf Feel free to contact me directly with any further questions, and thanks again!

It's just another product, another sale. Was looking for alot more in the meter plugin. Izotope meter plugin will always be my go too.

Anyone knows if you can control third party plugins from it? Like the stock plugins of whatever DAW you're using or VSTs and such?

Hi SpongeRoss, great question! With their newest Firmware update, the UC1 now has a slick system of controlling 3rd Party plugins using 360 Link. It has some baked in presets that will be continually updated, but is also completely customizable to any plugin you have pulled up! If you want to talk further on SSLs controllers, give me a ring! Drake Sobehrad, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, (800) 222-4700 ext. 3271, drake_sobehrad@sweetwater.com

I'd love to have a system like that, but the faderport16 is only $800 now and the FP8 is only $500. If not those, I'd go with icon. Just too expensive for a casual. For that money, I'd probably look at some mid grade hardware additions.

Does 360 work with the faderport8 or the 24ciostation

@sweetwater

Жыл бұрын

Hi, Chris! Thanks for your interest. The Plug-In Mixer and other SSL plug-ins can be mapped to third-party controllers, just like any other VST plug-in. However, they won’t have the same seamless integration as the SSL controllers. 360 won’t detect them automatically, some features like the UC1’s automatic focus won’t be available, and you’ll probably have to manually map some of the controls to get the results you want. I hope this helps a bit - feel free to contact me directly with any further questions, and thanks again!

Hi, thanks for your interest! I’m not totally sure I follow what you mean by “tracking up,” but I’ll do my best to answer here, and you can feel free to reach out to me directly for further clarification. You’ll really get the best results from these controllers during the mixing process. They don’t have audio I/O, so you’d need a separate interface to track through - and the plug-ins included with the controllers run natively on your computer, so they wouldn’t be zero-latency for tracking purposes. That said, this is a really useful platform for controlling your DAW as if it were an analog console during the mixing stage. You can even link up to four UF8 units to get 32 faders that communicate with your DAW in real time. I hope this helps a bit - feel free to send me an email or reply here to continue the conversation! Caleb Lowrey, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, (800) 222-4700 ext. 1620, caleb_lowrey@sweetwater.com

Very nice. I’m still a happy cc121 user with cubase. It had 75% of the important functions at 25% the price. It’s no longer in production and I’ll probably end up with this system if cubase or UAD don’t make something similar. Channel eq, automation and transport control are a huge workflow thing. The zoom keys and assignable buttons are great. The ssl comp with hardware control would be worth $400 to me alone. I’d pay that for a 224 unit to control the the UAD plug if they made one.

$699 though..?!!! 🙄

Just buy a digital mixer would be cheaper .
