Whether you´re trying to tame sibilance in a lead vocal, rein in a sharp-sounding hi-hat, or reduce harshness while mastering, a truly great de-esser is as elusive as it is essential. Enter the Weiss Deess, available as an individual plug-in or as part of the Weiss DS1-MK3 collection.

With a combination of the highly-prized sonics of the industry gold-standard 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 Plug-in. Stop searching, start succeeding - this is the de-esser.

Available as a standalone plug-in, or as part of the Weiss DS1-MK3 collection (also including the cutting-edge Weiss Compressor/Limiter plug-in, and the fast and intelligent Weiss MM-1 Mastering Maximizer).

Dual band action
The Weiss Deess has two completely independent bands. Most de-essers have one, but almost no sibilant has a single-frequency focus, especially when you´re dealing with complex material or mastering applications.

Concentrate on what's important
The variety of filter shapes and excellent band-width control, allows you to home in on precisely what you need to deal with, without collateral damage.

Low latency mode
A low-latency mode allows you to de-ess in tracking, saving the tedium in the mix of what can often feel like a non-creative editing task. Nothing beats getting it right on the way in.

This product supports
Extended Features
We love VU meters, Bakelite knobs, and analog quirks. But we want modern precision and workflow. The answer? Softube Extended Features. Easy-access panels with the innovations you need close at hand.

De-essing re-imagined
Most de-essers - even modern digital or plug-in units - lack versatility, user-friendliness, appropriate visualisation, or quite simply don´t work like you hope they will.

With the Weiss Deess plug-in we aimed to create a truly useable de-esser for the modern studio; offering two fully-customisable bands, presenting the essential controls clearly, giving unparalleled visual feedback, and adding incredible monitoring options. Allied to the untouchable sound-quality of the Weiss DS1-MK3 digital algorithms, this is a new and better kind of de-esser.

Unparalleled visualizations
A large, colorful, and intuitive display shows FFT readouts as well as your filter shapes, so you can clearly see what effect you´re having on your signal. The uncluttered GUI gives you a great visual information, but a side-menu allows control over everything. And we mean everything; ratios, attack and release times, knee settings, make-up gain and more.

Gold-standard sound
The Weiss algorithms, code-ported from the gold-standard DS1-MK3 unit, provide world class de-essing precision, meaning that unlike many de-essers you can rely on the Weiss Deess to improve the sound of your material, even at relatively extreme settings.

It does the job effectively and transparently, without hassle or artefact. Your work will sound better if you use this than it will if you don´t. It's as simple as that.
