De-Esser
Pre-Owned Special! Just In!
The SPL De-Esser is a highly specialised audio
tool for removing undesired sibilant frequencies in a very simple and
musical way without compromising the timbre and natural character of a
voice.
To solve this difficult problem, SPL has
developed a new circuit design that combines ease of use with natural
sound characteristics and the highest level of technical performance.
The SPL De-Esser monitors the S-frequency spectrum and automatically
detects the sibilant frequencies. The de-ess bandwidth is set so
narrowly around the range of the sibilance that neighbouring
frequencies remain unaffected. Input processed via this frequency band
is mixed back into the main signal phase-inverted so that only the
S-sounds are cancelled where the S-reduction controller determines the
intensity of the phase-cancelled mix. The result is a neutral,
unobtrusive and extremely effective de-essing process. Even at high
S-reduction values the de-essing has a negligible effect on the
character and timbre of the voice.
Rounding out the
amazingly simple control system is an automatic threshold-adjusting
function. Differences in the input level caused by the varying distance
to the mic, are compensated for automatically. This ensures even
de-essing independent of signal level so any necessary compression may
be applied post the de-esser.
