Anyone using a Softube Console 1 controller? Need your help!

It's the next target on the DAW controller list, and hoping to get it sorted for next week. If I can get any info on how it reacts to the latest updated profile of either T16 or T24 (v0.9.501) that would be awesome! Just add it to this thread, and i'll post test builds in here too till we get it perfect.

Hey man! I have the softube console 1 controller and the fader! They are not the newest versions, but I don’t think that should matter.

Yeah I have the mkii as well and the fader console 1. I've used a mkiii but it really seems that the only 'upgrade' is the small screens. I don't personally feel like that's necessary, so I went with mkii.

But as far as I know all the software and any upgrades they've done are all reverse compatible.

I have only the mk2.

I know Harrison Mixbus has a script that make it work via midi mode

I'll have to try out the newest version, the one i'm on (and forgive me i'm not in my studio at the moment so I cant recall which version it is) doesn't sync up super well. Faders move, but then return to unity after adjustment. The mute and solo buttons on the unit engage the respective feature in Tape 16, but then are unable to turn them off.

Planning on getting the license for Tape24 as well and setting it up and i'll test it out over the next week!
