Hi Tommy,
The SSL UC1 uses a wrapper called 360 Link which you are able to map your UC1 to pretty much any VST3 plugin. This does not appear to work with the MixBus 10 channel strips which are loaded by default on every track. I would think with the relationship of SSL and Harrison that this would be forthcoming at some point in time. But I am just guessing...I am hoping that SSL and Harrison fully integrate their modular controllers (UF8-UF1-UC1) with MixBus so we can get a more seamless approach to hybrid setups.
Since the UC1 can be mapped to almost any VST3 plugin, I do not need to 'MIDI learn' using other controllers or MIDI devices. I was finally able to get the middle click working on my mac using a third party app and even a free open-source one from Github (MiddleClick) to use MIDI devices should I want to in the future.
I am also about to test if I can get MetaGrid Pro (from Metasystems) to work with MixBus using my iPad as the MIDI device for mapping other functions! This program on my iPad can also perform a middle-click should I need it.
All in all, I love my UF8 and UC1! Anything I map using the 360 Link wrapper in MixBus can be used in REAPER or Cubase or Studio One (and vice-versa) without having to map them all over again for each DAW.Here is a YouTube title which can shed a lot of light on the UC1 and 360 Link

Unfortunately, I've had other MB10 issues (crashing using templates) which I have been working with Harrison Support to resolve. This has delayed further testing and kind of left a bitter taste in my mouth on this upgrade.
