Console 1 Mk 2 : Not for every DAW

6 years ago

The product is wel thought out and the plugin sounds really good. It gives you tons of instant and tactile processing abilities. Only major downside is that for some DAWs including Ableton Live, there is no support for track name, number and follow. Meaning that you manually have to name every track in Live AND in Console 1. You also have to add the plugin in order of channel 1, 2, 3, 4, ... and if you later want to add tracks in between you have to repeat this process from scratch. No follow support means that you can select different tracks in Ableton and in Console 1 which can be very confusing. This is all very clumsy and frustrating. I have been submitting feature requests to Softube and Ableton support for more than a year now, but still no progress. A real disappointment.
