what it’s about
AyDeEsser attenuates only the sibilance band — and only when it hisses. Dial in the frequency, set the threshold, limit the range; in listen mode you hear exactly the portion being removed. The GR history shows every reduction.
in detail
- Split-band reduction: just the S sounds, not the voice
- Listen mode for monitoring the removed portion
- Range limiting to prevent over-de-essing and lisping
- GR history of the sibilance band with peak value
- 15 presets for different voices and severity levels
