SSL UC1 Plug-in Controller
Studio-grade plug-in control — for SSL and any third-party plug-ins
UC1 delivers the ultimate hands-on control over your DAW plug-ins. With knob-per-function EQ & dynamics control, a full bus-compressor section, an authentic moving-coil gain-reduction meter, dual front-panel displays, and a rugged metal build — UC1 gives you a tactile, intuitive, professional workflow. Whether you use SSL 360°-enabled plug-ins (Channel Strip, 4K, Bus Compressor) or third-party plug-ins, UC1 brings console-style ergonomics and lightning-fast control to any DAW session.
UC1 draws on decades of console design to provide a deeply integrated control surface. Multiple parameters can be adjusted simultaneously, presets can be loaded, processing order changed, and Focus can be switched between plug-ins — all without reaching for your mouse. Add compatibility with other SSL controllers (like UF1 or UF8) to expand your hybrid workflow even further.
