Solid State Logic UF1

Description

Essential Information About the SSL UF1 DAW Controller

  • 100 mm Motorized Touch-Sensitive Fader, weighted jog wheel, and dedicated transport controls for ultra-precise mixing control.
  • Dual High-Resolution Displays featuring a large 4.3-inch IPS LCD screen and a secondary 1.77-inch screen for rich and immediate visual feedback.
  • Deep Integration with SSL 360 and the included "SSL Meter" plugin, plus control of compatible Channel Strips (Channel Strip 2, 4KB).
  • Native Multi-DAW Support: MCU/HUI profiles for Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase, Studio One, Ableton Live, LUNA, Pyramix, and simultaneous control of up to 3 workstations.

An SSL Legacy Tailored for the Modern Studio

A direct descendant of the UF8 control surfaces and the UC1 plugin controller, the UF1 brings the ergonomics of large SSL consoles into a compact format. True to the brand's workflow, it streamlines every stage of mixing by combining hardware control, parameter visibility, and software integration within a robust, fully metal chassis.

Who Is the UF1 For?

Ideal for producers, engineers, and creators in home studios as well as hybrid studios, the UF1 serves as a control center to automate, edit, and quickly navigate dense sessions. Alone, it offers full control over tracks, sends, and plugins; paired with a UC1 and UF8 units, it becomes a perfectly coherent modular surface.

Key Features for a Frictionless Workflow

The 100 mm motorized fader, scroll wheel, and five 360-degree encoders speed up management of volumes, panoramas, sends, and effect parameters. The soft RGB backlit buttons are assignable to recall your essential functions, while the Layer buttons allow instant switching between up to three DAWs.

The 4.3-inch IPS screen displays track names, parameter values, automation states, and the "SSL Meter" plugin for clear visual monitoring of your mix. Fader Mode transforms the four V-Pots beneath the screen into volume controllers for four tracks simultaneously, and the SSL 360 mixer's Master Mode allows control of a channel strip different from the track selected on the UF1.

SSL is the Rolls Royce of controllers (among others). The UF1 is beautiful, professional, and of very high quality. You have to learn to work with it, it's not a gadget for beginners. I use it with Cubase Pro 13, and after a good day of "getting started", it's amazing to use, incredibly efficient and precise. This product is a pure marvel. I can't wait to get the UC1 and the UF8. Thank you SSL!

Works very well with Cubase. Too bad the display does not seem to take into account the track color unlike the UC1. UF1 offers many possibilities, you need to take the time to watch videos and tutorials to make the most of its capabilities.
