    It's fully assignable

    Evolution UC-33Published on 10/15/12 at 21:10
    The Evolution Uc-33 has a smooth design and easy to work with interface. With 24 fully assignable knobs and a LCD screen, plus 9 extra faders that you can use to assign to perform any task you wish in your production software you will have full control over mixing your tracks without even touching the mouse.

    The Sliders feel really good, they move smoothly and are not too sensitive. Since I have been using the Evolution Uc-33 I have had full control over my mixer and many other functions in Cubase and Reason. I have also used it in FL Studio for a while and it never gave me any issues with assigning different functions to each individual knob or slider. The manual does come with it, but…

    The Sliders feel really good, they move smoothly and are not too sensitive. Since I have been using the Evolution Uc-33 I have had full control over my mixer and many other functions in Cubase and Reason. I have also used it in FL Studio for a while and it never gave me any issues with assigning different functions to each individual knob or slider. The manual does come with it, but it is not clear cut. It is a pretty small manual for all of the functions you can actually do with this unit.

    The main face of the Uc-33 is pretty simple, and remember nothing makes any noises or does anything unless you assign it to do something so you can basically customize everything the way you want it and then save it as a preset so you can easily have that same setting when you open up your DAW to start a new session anytime.

    You can connect this unit to your computer via MIDI with a 5 pin MIDI connection or you can go the USB route which really doesn’t matter. The price of this controller is very fair, it is probably the best part of it. For this price you get a great controller that you can use right out of the box and not have to worry about installing a bunch of software on your system. It is a plug and play set up. Also the Uc-33 is very well built, it seems to be made out of a thick plastic or even with some metal casters. Don’t plan on this thing breaking down on you, because it won’t!

    I am much less positive than the opinion below, may be because I use the UC-33 for longer ...

    Installation problem quite annoying, but hey, it works when done.

    I find the ergonomics evil thought. The buttons are too close to each other. On the other hand, are missing in every switch, and this would have served as controls for assigning mute / record / solo. It's still of why we need when making registration!

    Problem also: FREQUENTLY sometimes there's a pretty big delay between when I turn a pots, and the time when the value changes on the PC.

    Finally, ENNORME problem about these components, I have already two malfunctioning fader, knobs and one that makes its own!

    And yes, the quality has a price ... I'm going to economise qq buy something better ... shame.

    Same as the notice above:
    I have an M-Audio D66 / PIV 1.6GHz / W98SE and it works really well: sequencers, plugins ... (Unless you excited like crazy on pots from right to left with the ardor of flash gordon, as is the latency of the system (controller + PC + Soft) that does not react as quickly
    so we can go fast but not very very soon ...).

    for MIDI, no problem: I plugged a keyboard in the MIDI in two well recognized (in addition to the fact uc33 midi interface).

    Robustness: It's much less toys than I thought

    I have yet to test my setup in cubase, fruityloops but love it.

    So no real point ngatifs.

    it is enough to have a good indipensable MIDI CONTROLLER behind the soft and hard, and this choice seems to me a very good price quality ratio.

    -3 Months
    - The +: prsence fader which reversed course to simulate the B4 drawbars. the least: not enough guides to facilitate prdcoups reprage assignments.
    - Not

    Good 2 days of use.
    after setting the minimum and exploit its possibilities (in sonar 2), I think this machine can be very useful in the management of virtual instruments or hard synth, but that request at this price.
    I think it's a good approach control surfaces without giving a true IDE.
    my note is dictated by its price
    a want to buy a Mackie Control
    but a very interesting machine.

    I use the CPU 33 for 8 months. This is the top, the price is reasonable which allows to buy one or two others waiting to see one walking on the motorized ;-) I have no regrets, except that any what comes through the USB interface dispatch in two: one for the CPU 33 and a pass for what it does (clavier. ..) and I (in fruityloops) I can selctionner an interface to the time, which was then forced myself to change every time I wanted to use alternatively the CPU or keyboard. To solve this pb I buy a merge noon (without power, it is always more convenient) and I connect my keyboard and my 33 uc it and I go between noon only on my pc.

Since it is pure happiness :-)) I used a preset as a mixer (volume, effects 1 2 3) and other presets I use for my VSTi in a key I pass from one to another super pratik.

    I used the last month and that n is that of happiness.
    j uses live and I work on two presets that allow me Bouin in all directions.
    we rediscover songs thanks to this proximity that allows uc33.

    the only thing to regret is that he did not mute nor on every vote.
    but hey j have an oxygen 8 from noon to 2 and J each configured voice mute a note on the keyboard.

    For you may know the MIDI and paramtrage this little jou is extremely simple.
    I es for 1 year and I use it in any app that accepts control by MIDI.L printing of plastic that gives the controller the wrong decision because of course it has a plastic contruction but nevertheless strong and believe me you can go on the faders and knobs for the live.

    It seems that the version can be upgrade to version now allows e presets for backing up sysex.Si used anywhere you want and pushed way I urge you to upgrade or version e!
    For my party at the time of jai sell the normal version for e and time according to what I want to do and with what software I run my load presets matching.

    If I may, if you too have money to pay heavy MIDI controller you can still take nearly 300euros for 2 UC33 (see - to OCCAZ) and 18 faders and 48 potentiomtres to use a of soft blocks in real time!

    9 / 10 because
    trs good value for money but quality Behringer now offers two machines has the trs COMPETITIVE UC33 that are worth trying to be all the same (let's not bad language). Thus did not tried the behringer I keep in the 10/10 option.

    Uc33 too well, I used just to control Live, but I can do without. without my controller I would be lost! niquel value for money (after I have not tried another model, as far as I Avaya I do not took the lead) I think I'll try later changed to another model! leaves to be disappointed!

    I used the last one year, what I like most is the quick installation you plug it works, what I like least is the pots and faders that move the buttons on the software without that you touch (ca kidding severe). Value for very expensive for me to buy the 319 euros. With the experience I do not buy it, I advise against it

    From 2-3 months

    This is useful with Reason but otherwise to control synths or something I do not like programming, I prefer that of the BCR2000 is that it is very complicated but I like it.

    This is my first controller with faders but they are a bit cheap, but I do not know if they let go so easily.

    I would not want to buy it at its release I was very disappointed considering the price.
    Now is a good deal.

    Next time I doubt I take it back just because he lacks a row of knobs for liver comfortable with Reason.
    Although ... at that price.

    J bought this controller 2 years ago. First of all, this product my surprised by its ease of installation (no drivers), followed by its ease of use. The major weakness of it is its quality. Fully plastic faders and knobs rotten short to price, it is better to move to a Behringer ...
