Moving From Softube Console 1 to Avid dock?
I've been a long-time user of Console 1 with Pro Tools, and love it. It really helps to move quickly and the static layout is really great to become accustomed to.
Recently though I have seen some great videos on the Avid dock, and I have to say it looks very cool. Takes up similar desk space, and has way more features and is much more powerful. I feel that maybe only having 8 knobs might be a drawback, but maybe not. I am curious if anyone also made the change from C1 to the Avid dock? |

I can't speak to Console 1 but the recently released Custom plugin knob layouts certainly helps with the 8 knobs. Also coming later this year you can build these with 2 controls per knob and switch between them.

I find myself in a similar conundrum. I love that I can assign anything anywhere but I am frustrated by the lack of actual knobs. I dont need more faders I need more knobs. (I am generally working with "console style" plugins and these are consistent but have an EQ/Dynamics/etc layout that uses around 18-20. I know I can split these across pages but ideally would need 9 per page.) The Console1 does this relatively well (but doesnt seem to play well with 3rd party plugins). Avid control dock/fader setups seem great - be awesome to have an expansion of just knobs though. Any ideas? |

The combination of the Dock and tablet allows for some quick navigation if you take the time to learn and associate the flow.
The tablet gives a great representation of what you are doing as well as the ability to actually control things while maintaining what I feel is a logical layout for the controls on the hardware. I'm really a fan of how easy it is to understand the flow of EUCON devices. |
