Sibilance breaks down sound into basic individual components prior to processing. When Sibilance recognizes unwated ess and shh vocal sounds it reduces only their levels without affecting other componentseven ones with high frequencies. The result: ultra-precise de-essing. For vocals dialogue voiceover and podcasting no other de-esser maintains the original timbre duration and resonance of the human voice as wellor as effectivelyas Sibilance.

Remove Harshness: Keep Original Brightness and Tone

Sibilance bypasses conventional de-essing by identifying the various vocal componentsnot just the frequenciesthat create harsh s and sh sounds. It then removes only these components: this way you can retain all of the vocals original brightnessand even add brightness with additional EQ if neededwithout making the vocal harsher.

Customize Your Criteria for De-Essing

Choose the width of the sound to be minimizednarrow for ess transients wide for shh sounds. Mode determines the frequency range being affected from the full bandwidth to just the highs.

Real-Time Visual Analysis

The sibilance detection graph provides real-time visual confirmation of your edits. Youll see de-essing as it occurs overlaid on the waveform as well as the amount of de-essing thats being applied.

Innovative DeEssing with Organic ReSynthesis

Sibilance achieves its breakthrough precision de-essing thanks to its Waves Organic ReSynthesis engine. Whereas most de-essers act like narrow-band compressors Organic ReSynthesis breaks down each sound into its core elements such as carrier and envelope allowing surgical control of each element and leaving the rest of the signal untouched. .

Features:

• Organic ReSynthesis keeps brightness and removes harshness
• Variable frequency range for de-essing from wide to split-band
• Variable detection mode for transients or longer ess sounds
• Retains the vocals original tone even with heavy de-essing
• Informative graph shows de-essing occurrence and amount
• Includes zero-latency version for live performance
