On one hand, the incredibly simple UI makes it very easy to use. On the other hand, it’s almost every simplistic for users that do understand DSP architecture, and the circuitry topology of Neve consoles. Falling into the latter camp myself, I was skeptical of the VU meter calibration function because the available information does not clearly specify whether the calibration is only for driving the VU, or if the calibration also adjusts the input gain of the plugin itself in order to optimize the modeling behavior and sonic result. So far, it seems that the VU calibration is affecting the level going into the plugin, but given how subtle this plugin is overall, I can’t say for certain. It DOES sound like a good Neve desk. I just wish they gave use a more comprehensive layer or page to the UI to understand what is actually going on.
It sounds good so far! No complains about the quality. As a younger mixing engineer coming from the ITB era I would love to have a preset section to see what others would use the plugins on. Since I never used a real console I’m not always sure what this can offer to my workflow. Used the A-console on some horns but the T-Console hasn’t been used in a real mix yet. Maybe some tips and tricks in the manual would be nice! I know Bob Horn use these a lot and I bet he would be down to make
some presets for it! You probably know other great engineers that would be down.
I also found the license activation with the terminal scripts a little messy and unpractical compared to say iLok. I am used to the terminal but to other who’s never been in there a script may seem kinda sketchy.
Then we come to the demoing which I read about in a Gearspace thread. For me 2 of your consoles for 79 dollars was a real gamble. Maybe I don’t end up using the T-Console in my workflow and because of that and a demo of 30 days would have been great in that case. I doubt I could get my money back if I end up not finding a use
case for it?
I understand your concerns with the licensing keys and understand you don’t want your plugins cracked. But you should focus on the customers thats actually paying for your services. Plugins get cracked anyways it’s just a matter of time and effort for the crackers.
Anyways feel free to ask any question regarding my feedback.
Wow! Excellent! Both emulations have a distinct yet familiar, iconic sound. Easy to set up, warm analogue glue for your DAW! Instant harmonic content enhancement and dynamic control with added width and depth. Mixing is so much easier now!
This plug in makes all the difference in the world to my mixes. Not only does it give me that analogue vibe that is “chewy” and full, it really helps me to get my gain staging right at the mixing stage. My only regret is that I should have got the N-Console at the same time! 100% recommended.
There’s a lack of good SSL styled summing plugins and the Waves version doesn’t sound as authentic to my ears. I didn’t give it a 5 rating because it (Satson) wasn’t as feature robust as A Console or some of the newer Sonimus summing plugins. Best SSL summing plugin on the market though (that I’ve found).
I have tried new API Sidecar plug-in that sums and while it’s good and versatile, I much prefer the sound and ease of use of the Sonimus A Consile summing plugin for authentic API sound. Invaluable tool.
Bought the console bundle. I use them all on different groups of instruments. Love it! Feels like working with a real mixing console! Thank you for your work!
Without exaggeration, this is the best investment in plugins this year. Being impressed by other Sonimus products – TuCo and Satson CS, I decided to give the T-console a chance and it became a simply amazing addition to the HEAT in Pro Tools.
I am sure that in the near future, I will buy a sweet couple – A and N -consoles) Also, I am looking forward to Apple Silicon Support for the Satson CS.
Thanks Sonimus)

Its everything that was promised
A touch of analog life in my DAW ….

Nice job guys. Good N air and warmth with that subtle analog depth/breath. Light plugin and smart features.
A step forward at honest price
Absolutely fantastic and I would recommend it to amateur/Professional ,my mixes has more depth and space and easier to mix a track.
I love you guys consoles keep up the good work
Great Compressor! Having the four modes is awesome!!
