Basically happy with it

tombuur 05.06.2024

Upgraded from mkII and this is a really a leap forward in every way. I particularly enjoy that I can now use plugins from UAD and Fabfilter with the mkIII.

The reason I only give 4 stars for handling is the lack of a stand to get the console at a steeper angle. It is possible to attach it to a video monitor suspension arm, but I want it to stand on the table not hang in the air. I actually think Softube ought to provide a stand as and add-on.

At the moment there are things in the software that has to be improved, but Softube is obviously developing the software continuously.

A huge step up

Raffz 04.01.2024

Coming from the MK2 this is a huge step up. Build quality is fantastic. Feel of the knobs is much more natural.

I was surprised at how useful the small screens were - on the MK2 I would keep the plugin window open but with this there is no need. I can quickly see gain reduction and EQ curves etc easily.

Only negative I’d say is the large price rise compared to the previous version.

Game changer

Just like using a desk like the old days all about ears now and not plugin interfaces. Welcome to my analogue past

Will change the way you make music

GearHead77 28.12.2025

In a world flooded with plugins - This got me back to making music. I changed my workflow where the console 1 is at the heart. I only use the Console 1 Plugin in my template. My Daw is now only a tape machine. I can focus on music and not plugin Gui's. If I need to adjust something - The console is already active on my selected track, and I can just turn the knobs.

For those who lost the passion of music because of the plugin / mixing war - This will get you back!
