The Precision De-Esser offers an accurate and transparent solution for reducing sibilance in individual audio tracks or full mixes. Its user-friendly interface allows precise control over the amount of sibilance reduction, with a threshold knob that adjusts the intensity and a speed setting that shapes the attack and release of the detection envelope. This flexibility ensures smooth and natural results across a variety of vocal performances and instruments.

With a frequency knob sweeping from 2 to 16 kHz, the Precision De-Esser targets sibilant frequencies that can affect vocals, overheads, and hi-hats, providing broad application across different audio sources. The solo function isolates these frequencies for careful monitoring, while the width control offers a selectable bandpass filter range or switches to a traditional highpass filter for focused de-essing on individual voices. This adaptability makes it suitable for complex material and detailed sound shaping.

The plugin also features a split mode that allows compression to be applied exclusively to the sibilant range, reducing unwanted artifacts such as darkening or lisping that can occur with full-spectrum compression. By combining modern bandpass filtering with traditional highpass options and dual-speed time constants, the Precision De-Esser provides a refined tool for managing sibilance on tracks, buses, or master outputs, enhancing clarity and polish in your mixes.
