routed into the Console1 system and back to the
same DAW channel. See next section for setting the
correct track name and number.
Track Name and Number
Many DAW hosts support automatic transfer of
track name and number from the DAW host tracks
to the corresponding Console 1 tracks. is means
that any name you have given a track in the DAW
host automatically appears on the corresponding
track in the Console 1 mixer. Similarly, if the DAW
host supports automatic transfer of track number,
the number of the DAW track will be the same as
the corresponding track in Console 1, so the track
layout will be the same in Console 1 as in your
DAW. is in turn means that if you decide to rear-
range the track order in your DAW, this also gets
reected in the Console 1 mixer.
If the DAW does not support automatic track
numbers or names, the message area in the plug-in
GUI will notify you about this. If track number is
supported, you will now be able to open Console
1’s On-Screen Display (by pushing the Display On
button in the top left corner of the hardware) and
see all the tracks laid out and named just as they are
in your DAW session.
However, some DAW hosts do not support au-
tomatic transfer of track name and number from
the host to Console 1. In the case of Pro Tools and
Logic Pro, these support automatic transfer of track
name, but not number. is will be indicated by a
message saying “Manual track numbers, automatic
track name from DAW.” In this case, you will need
to manually select to which Console 1 track the
Console 1 plug-in routs the DAW channel’s audio,
and possibly also manually enter the track name for
it to display in the Console 1 system.
If your preferred DAW does not support automatic transfer
of track number: When a Console 1 plug-in is instantiated
on a DAW track, it will by default be placed on the lowest
available track number. This means that it can be a good
idea to launch the Console 1 plug-ins by starting on DAW
track 1, which will then be placed on Console 1 track 1,
then move on to DAW track 2, which will be placed on
Console 1 track 2 (because this is now the lowest available
track), etc. This should save you from most of the manual
work of placing the Console 1 tracks in a way that cor-
responds to how they are laid out in the DAW.
If you want to turn o auto-
matic track name/number or the
Integrated DAW Control, please
click “SETUP” in the plug-in (not
the On-Screen Display). For more
information, please see “Disabling
DAW Integration” on page 57
