I'm seriously thinking about getting all three!

[masdspestudio]

if this had a spectogram it would be incredible

[hugoroest]

Is it possible to control automation lines with SSL UF1 within Ableton Live ?

[felixbr]

SSL, what about to bring out your own DAW? Like to see all full integrated with your Hardware

[DiegoFuego]

Looks so great but I so don’t need it!

[marcprest]

focus mode doesn't work for me with native Ableton plugins, can anyone tell me why?

[ARCASIAUK]

If I could programme myself to use this more than a mouse then it’ll be a game changer

[Trinison]

When using the UC1 to with the 360 what is happening with the Live session view mixer? Does it follow the pan and fader moves on the 360 mixer? Does the audio signal get mapped to the UC1 channel strip of the 360 then to session mixer in Live? Confused about that part of the video. Please explain

[YiggaP]

Hi ! One question please: If we click on a track with a mouse, is it automatically selected by the UF1, or do you need to go to the track manually on the UF1 ? I fear I know the answer ... as soon as I heard about MCU...

[adirkse]

The UF1 doesn't seems to be that complementary to Live. I also have Logic and Cubase, wouldn't anybody say the UF1 is better on these two DAW's?

[eihtbernal]

is there any way to get the channel meter to display post instead of pre metering?

[allkindsofthings]

nahh sometimes it is just easier to use mouse and keyboard

[blessidunion]

Watched so many videos on this and really want one but ilok? No thanks

[WebHamster-tfro]

That's embarrassing, suddenly the audio in this movie is mono. SSL, please, you can do better.

[NotDayWalker]

@SSL - what users want is a UF1 with 8 faders. We don't know if you are purposely doing this to maximize profits from different units or your designer team has no clue of your customers needs. Im not buying this cause i know for sure next you will release a UF8 with UF1 features.

[younyounyoun.]

I instantly paused the video when it said iLok. Hurt my ears.
