Still NO softube console 1 mk II UPDATE THE'RE HERE

They didn't give a release date, just a somewhat vague 'end of spring' indication.
Anyway: I've pre-ordered mine at Thomann (germany) and according to their estimate it should have been available on the 13th of march, that has now changed to 2-5 days. Other webstores also have an availability estimate around the same time, so I expect it to arrive at the end of this week or next week.

Unfortunately I was a bit to optimistic. The delivery date just changed to 03.21. 
 

I don't know about Console 1, but Softube is now Gobbler-only for updates. I had had regular issues with Gobbler logging itself out and not logging back in, pretty much a daily thing on startup. Gobbler uninstalled. Softube plugin uninstalled.

I have uninstalled Gobbler on both laptop and studio pc. I have my Console1, and plugins activated to iLok.
I just keep an eye out for updates, and manually update.

No that's not correct. You only need a Gobbler account to log into your Softube account. You can still download individual installers for all your plugins if you want to.

You're correct. Took me awhile to find it. What's missing is their full installer (what I was looking for). What does exist is a single installer for the one plugin I bought direct. Thanks for making me look further.

I can't imagine working without it after having it for 6 months.
It's my most used thing in my studio these days

But does Mike like it???
 
Cant wait since I have been wanting the SSL plug that comes with it, and I have lots of UAD plugs
I can put the mouse aside and control plugs now

Mike is always getting the SSL treatment these days 
It's an excellent piece of kit 

EDIT finally found it it only likes the VST3 version only!!!! now it communicates
 
now I have to figure out how to control uad plugs
 
 
well I got it installed and it doesnt work
first of all the Console 1 on screen display opens up and fills the whole screen, if you disable the process, softube console 1 wont communicate, so I have to drag the screen off, there is no minimize button

it doesnt communicate!!! softube stays in manual track mode and there is no setting button to change to auto.

I cannot change volume pan or anything

I cannot set the track names, clicking on the click to set name dialog box yields nothing
 
 

well I went from bad to worse....
 
installed the latest UAD version 9.1 and after a while the console would finally see the plugs, but then the uad plugs started losing authorization .
 
I stayed up till 2AM rolling back, downloading, trying this that and the other.
 
I could load one uad plug fine the second I added A new plug the first one lost authorization.. I fought this for a while, when suddenly I tried looking at the control panel and saw my firewire utilization was at 100% with no plugs installed.
I am running a solo PCI card, a Satellite Quad FW and an Apollo USB twin, bur for some reason the fw issue was hosing up everything. I had been rebooting my PC several times but the UAD stuff stays on till I hit the master power switch so none of the interfaces ever got rebooted. I reset the Satellite and then at 2AM I tried loading a few UAD plugs and they stayed authorized, and the console also loaded a uad plug.
 
This evening I will try to clean up my mess and continue testing with a fresh brain.
AND try to figure out why it didnt work, but I think it was partially because I move my UAD folder to a different location, and last night I let the install take the default the Steinberg folder.
It is a PITA for the Platinum rescans cause it takes FOREVER for Plat to scan the vsts...
 
 
 
 

I still don't know WTH happened, Ken. I appreciate your help, though.
 
Everything is working here now.
 
I think Console wanted to see the UADs in their default install folder, because when I did the re-install of UAD I let the plugs reside in the default.
That, and the funky Firewire issue..
