But with premium instruments come premium price tags. Synonymous with sound quality, the value of the Weiss Engineering suite of mastering tools is undeniable. It’s the name in audio mastering. Weiss Complete Collection.
Softube Bundle License Your Softube
Once registered, the Softube Central app can be downloaded from the My Products page. All use the Weiss processing engine, but Softube has developed streamlined controls with never before seen graphics for each version.Softube Time and Tone Bundle is a unique plug-in pack (valued at 297) which includes four of Softube’s world-class plug-ins: Drawmer S73 Intelligent Master Processor, TSAR-1R Reverb, Tube Delay and Saturation Knob.The Softube Central app is where you can easily install and license your Softube software. As of writing, three additional titles (the MM-1 Mastering Maximizer, the Deess de-esser, and Compressor/Limiter plug-ins) are part of the product line. Normally this would be sufficiently big news, but Softube did not stop there. Somehow, Softube convinced Daniel Weiss to hand over the code block for his digital hardware Weiss DS1-MK3. Softube is one of the most acclaimed emulation developers, so it was a surprise that their release of the Weiss DS1-MK3 mastering compressor was not a model – it's a line-by-line source transfer of the real thing.
The sound quality lives up to the reputation, hype and all.That said, coaxing the maximum performance out of this engine can be tricky with the original interface (hardware owners are doubtlessly accustomed to navigating the unit). Users who wish to type values for controls can enable "Bob Ludwig Mode." Honestly, using this plug-in for a week made me start pricing a real one. Known for an ergonomic one-button-per-feature interface, the plug-in can be controlled via mouse or scroll wheel and is mappable to a suitable controller (e.g. As soon as you sign up.The main DS1-MK3 GUI embodies the $10,000 hardware right down to the graphic display. View Softube’s System Requirements for compatibility information.With the Softube Volume 5 EDU Bundle, you get over 30 Softube plug-ins, and EVERY NEW UPDATE that gets released for no extra charge.
The lower band includes Notch (which I do not believe exists on the original hardware), Band, and Shelf focus, while the higher band is Band or Shelf. Hence, two processing bands are available simultaneously. For example, "s" sound resonances usually reside in the 7 to 9 kHz area, while "ch" and "sh" sources can be below 4 kHz.
Prior to Softube's release, users had to spend five figures for this level of performance. In my experiences, the only other digital de-esser that comes close to the quality of the Weiss is the DeEsser engine in the TC Electronic System 6000. A scalable FFT display and graphic control of parameters means you can target offending sounds quickly. Monitor provides the difference.
I would love to use this guy to sit on bass instruments, so I was bummed about this – until I realized such power was built into the next title.Originally, I used the Compressor/Limiter least of the group. Unfortunately, the real hardware will go down to 20 Hz vs. The notch filter can be as close an approximation to going back in time and moving the mic as any automated processor can do.
Each parameter has its own click area on the widget. You can change the frequency, threshold, and width of the filters. Customizing settings is rapid with the Frequency display. Then I noticed you can compress selectively, with low and band-pass filters. However, getting sounds fast is valuable in a production environment (sometimes you don't want to adjust all five Weiss release parameters).
I'm sure one or more of these titles will be as useful to you as well. I can't function without the de-esser. With a higher resolution than the original (32-bit/192 kHz) and as many instances as your CPU will permit, the Softube Weiss DS1-MK3 mastering bundle is one of the most important tools for high-fidelity transparent mastering on the market. Softube's presentations are attractive and offer both a fresh perspective and controls that are not available in the real world incarnation. If not, you're probably going to want the bundle anyway. Done.If you've used the DS1-MK3 hardware version you will be comfortable with this software version.
