Key Features
The Softube Weiss Gambit Series for Console 1 is a digital channel strip that delivers mastering-quality EQ, dynamics control and compression for Softube Console 1 for a hands-on, tactile workflow. Developed in partnership with Weiss Engineering, Gambit Series combines processing derived from the renowned DS1-MK3 and EQ1 into a workflow optimised for Console 1. The channel strip delivers the clean, detailed character associated with Weiss processors while introducing functionality designed specifically for mixing applications.
Alongside faithful ports of the original algorithms, Gambit Series adds features such as below-threshold compression, allowing you to enhance quieter elements of a signal without altering louder transients. The EQ section incorporates filtering derived from the EQ1, offering highly precise adjustment with smooth, low-noise operation. Built for the Console 1 ecosystem, it provides a fresh digital channel-strip option that complements existing analogue-inspired models while maintaining the accuracy and transparency required for critical audio work.

The Weiss Gambit Series brings together the core processing technologies of the DS1-MK3 and EQ1 in a format designed specifically for Console 1. Developed in collaboration with Weiss Engineering, the plug-in is built from line-by-line ports of the original code, preserving the behaviour and response of the hardware processors. Rather than simply recreating mastering tools in software, Softube has refined the workflow for channel-strip operation, giving you fast access to Weiss-style dynamics and equalisation during mixing. The result is a transparent, highly detailed processing environment that sits comfortably alongside other Console 1 channel strips.
Unlike traditional compressors and expanders which primarily react to signals above a threshold, Weiss compressors focuses on quieter audio content below the threshold. This unique take on dynamics processing opens up creative and corrective possibilities, allowing you to emphasise reverb tails, room ambience, and subtle performance details without affecting louder peaks. Combined with adjustable range controls, you can apply highly targeted processing that enhances low-level information while maintaining the natural punch and dynamics of the original signal.
Drawing from the Weiss EQ1, Gambit Series delivers precise equalisation with the flexibility demanded by modern production workflows. The input section includes low-cut and high-cut filters derived from the original design, providing smooth filtering with minimal noise. Every parameter operates in discrete steps, but with hundreds of available increments for accurate adjustment.
The dynamics processing inherited from the DS1-MK3 provides the level of control that mastering engineers have relied on for years. Compression, limiting, de-essing, and expansion can all be applied with exceptional precision while maintaining clarity and detail throughout the signal path. Because the algorithms originate from processors designed for the most demanding audio applications, Gambit Series is equally comfortable handling stereo bus duties, mastering tasks, and individual tracks. For Console 1 users looking to add a transparent digital option to their workflow, it offers a distinctly clean alternative to analogue-inspired channel strips.
