SSL UF8 User Guide

UF8 Page

The UF8 page can be selected from the menu toolbar on the left-hand side and is where you configure UF8 to work with your

DAW(s). It is also the place where you can customise any of the user-assignable keys. Customised DAW profiles can then be saved

and loaded as .xml files should you need to work on another computer with SSL 360° installed.

1 - LAYER Tabs

UF8 can be configured for 3 different DAWs simultaneously, with each DAW occupying what is called a 'Layer'. If you only use one

DAW, then it is likely you'll only need one layer. If using multiple DAWs, simply click in the LAYER 2 or LAYER 3 tabs to configure

as appropriate.

2 - DAW Profile Selection

Use the drop-down list to select your DAW for the chosen layer.

3 - PORT INFO

Clicking on PORT INFO provides some basic instructions on how to configure your SSL V-MIDI ports correctly (useful as a

reminder). If you are configuring UF8 for the first time, please refer to the more detailed explanations found at the start of each

DAW Tutorial section as the PORT INFO does not cover every detail.

4- REVERT

Allows you to revert this Layer to the factory-shipped DAW profile.

5 - DAW Command/Keyboard Shortcut Assignments

Clicking on the pen symbol will allow you to change the assignment of any of the user-assignable keys. See the next page for

more information.
