Console 1 Mk 2 : Making mixing tactile and fun

5 years ago

Softube Console 1 made the process of mixing very fun and exciting, you build muscle memory with it and feel more physically connected to the music if that makes sense. I'm very happy with this purchase when it comes to the meat and potatoes of the mix.

Pros:

- Compact form factor.

- Console 1 software works pretty smooth, always there when you need it and non-intrusive when you don't need it.

- Low CPU load.

Cons:

- Integration with UAD console is a disaster, don't fall in that marketing trap.

- Some UAD plugins loaded into console seem to use more DSP as opposed to running outside of console.

- It's easy to overprocess tracks by having console loaded into your whole session.
