Softube Weiss Deess

Weiss Deess - it just works. 

What it is: 
The coveted de-essing of Weiss' DS1-MK3 in a plugin. 

How we use it: 
Sculpt away unpleasant "esses" and "shhs" without collateral damage. 

Why it's cool: 
With Weiss algorithms code-ported from the acclaimed DS1-MK3, you're guaranteed the last word in de-essing. With a combination of the highly-prized sonics of the Weiss DS1-MK3 – the go-to digital hardware de-essing unit used in top mastering studios the world over – and a totally modern and focused approach in design, Softube is psyched to announce the Weiss Deess Plugin. Stop searching, start succeeding - this is the de-esser.

Why Weiss Deess:

• It has two completely independent bands. Most de-essers have one.
  
• It has a variety of filter shapes and excellent band-width control, allowing users to hone in on precisely what they need to deal with, without collateral damage.
• It has unparalleled visualizations. A large, colorful, and intuitive display shows FFT readouts as well as filter shapes, so users can clearly see what effect they’re having on their signal.
• The faceplate GUI is uncluttered, focusing on giving great visual information, but a side menu allows control over everything; ratios, attack and release times, knee settings, make-up gain and more.
• A low-latency mode allows de-essing during tracking. Nothing beats getting it right on the way in.
• Lastly, and most importantly of all, the Weiss algorithms, code-ported from the gold standard DS1-MK3 unit, provide the best sounding de-essing in the world. Users’ work will sound better if they use this than if they don’t. It’s as simple as that.
