NEW Sonimus S-Console: New Satson MKII Classic British Console

[Sonimus]

Hi everyone,

Since we've received several questions about what has changed compared to Satson, we thought it would be helpful to summarize the main new features and improvements introduced in S-Console.

S-Console was developed from scratch on a completely new framework. Our goal wasn't to reinvent Satson, but to preserve its philosophy while taking it much further in terms of sound, workflow, compatibility, and long-term maintainability.

Some of the main differences are:

1. Two oversampling modes, with up to 16x oversampling.
2. Improved crosstalk.
3. A new Push mode with two selectable headroom levels.
4. Dry/Wet control.
5. Output control.
6. Low-cut and High-cut filters can now be placed either before the preamp or after the saturation stage.
7. Improved VU metering, with calibration options at -14, -16, -18, -20, -22, -24 and -26 dBFS (Satson offered only -14, -18 and -20 dBFS).
8. Bug fixes and more consistent behavior across different sample rates.
9. Native Apple Silicon (ARM) support.
10. Grouping, improving workflow while also enhancing stability and performance.
11. A completely redesigned, resizable GUI.

Beyond the visible features, a considerable amount of work also went into the new architecture, ensuring S-Console has a solid foundation for future development while preserving the sound and workflow that made Satson a favorite for so many users.
