Solid State Logic UF8 Advanced DAW Controller Surface

SSL UF8 for USB DAW control surfaces If you’re ready to take command of your DAW-based production setup, has a tool that will boost your productivity. The Solid State Logic UF8 is an advanced DAW control surface that includes eight motorized, touch-sensitive faders, nine push/push rotary encoders, and eight high-resolution LCD TFT displays. SSL has been creating world-class recording consoles for decades, and the UF8’s precise design demonstrates their enormous expertise. Its professional heritage is evident throughout the design, from the perfect feel of its soft-touch rubber RGB illuminated buttons to the strength of its sleek, all-metal chassis. The system can be expanded with up to four UF8s, providing 32 channels of DAW control. The UF8 connects via high-speed USB and is driven by SSL’s proprietary 360° software, allowing for simple, streamlined operation while still providing powerful capability. Chain multiple units for the ultimate multichannel DAW control surface A single SSL UF8 gives you ample control over large sessions by navigating between channel banks. However, if you want even more physical-fader action, SSL makes it easy to integrate up to four UF8 control surfaces for a whopping 32 channels of hands-on DAW control. Having 32 channels on tap is ideal for large post-production and mixing sessions, but you can up your fader count one UF8 at a time — as your need demands and budget permits! The units are daisy-chained via the UF8’s USB-A port, reducing cable clutter; and the SSL 360° app takes care of the integration, so you’ll be up and running with a full arsenal of SSL faders in no time! SSL 360° software is the brains of the process. The SSL UF8 operates flawlessly with popular DAWs, including Pro Tools, Logic Pro X, Cubase, Nuendo, Studio One, Ableton Live, LUNA, and Pyramix, three of which can be connected simultaneously. SSL’s dedicated 360° software for macOS and Windows manages configuration with your DAW. Drag and drop to reorder UF8s in a multi-surface configuration, and modify the control surface’s user keys with DAW commands or keyboard shortcuts. SSL 360° automatically stores any modifications you make in the background, so you’ll never lose your clever maneuvers. It also handles software and firmware updates automatically.
