The Touch of Legendary SSL Consoles in a Desktop Format
Drawing on decades of analog and digital console design, SSL condenses its expertise into the UC1. This surface translates the mixing instincts inherited from the legendary 4000 and 9000 series into a compact controller, designed to bring the "console" feel to the heart of a fully software-based workflow.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
The UC1 is aimed at producers, mixers, and ITB engineers who want to stop "mixing with a mouse." It offers tactile control of equalizers, filters, dynamics, and the Bus Compressor, ideal for sculpting channels, subgroups, and the mix bus with consistency, speed, and sonic coherence.
Inspiring Control, Built for Speed
Central Bus Compressor Section
At the center, the dedicated Bus Compressor controls replicate the iconic SSL layout. The needle meter faithfully displays gain reduction to precisely set ratio, attack, and release, just like on a real console center section.
Channel Strip and 4K B at Your Fingertips
Dedicated encoders and switches provide direct access to the EQ, filters, compressor, and Gate/Expander of the "Channel Strip 2" and "4K B" plug-ins. You can instantly switch from the channel strip to the Bus Compressor, load presets, and reorder processing from the surface to keep your focus on the sound.
SSL 360 Software
The SSL 360 manager consolidates visualization and control of all your "4K B," "Channel Strip 2," and "Bus Compressor 2" instances into a single interface. You can switch between sessions and even across three different DAWs without breaking your workflow.
