Softube has introduced an addition to its Weiss series of audio plugins. Designed for high transparency, precision, and accuracy, the Weiss DS5 Multiband Compressor is a multiband version of the award-winning Weiss DS1-MK3, allowing users to control 5 powerful bands of full DS1 units with one macro, with optional low latency for tracking.
Our Weiss DS5 Multiband Compressor is the highly requested evolution of the industry’s top mastering processor: the award-winning Weiss DS1-MK3. Together with Weiss Engineering, we’re proud to bring you five full line-by-line code-ported Weiss DS1s, one per band. A feat impossible in hardware form.
Modernized and fully loaded with professional presets from Bob Katz, Philippe Weiss, Maor Appelbaum, and Jonathan Wyner, our Weiss DS5 Multiband Compressor gives you complete control over compression across specific frequency ranges, in mastering, and on mix buses, vocals, drums, and more. All with the famous transparency of Weiss.
