The Antares Vocal De-Esser is an AI-driven plug-in that makes it a breeze to smooth out harsh vocal sounds. Trained on the unique features of the human voice, it controls sibilant sounds without harming your vocal tracks' performance or tone. Sibilants like hissing 'S' and tiring 'T' sounds can spoil a great vocal recording, but this plug-in quickly removes them with just one click, giving you more time to focus on your mix. We collaborated with professional vocalists to ensure the AI truly understands the subtleties of the human singing voice, offering real-time sibilance control you can rely on. It targets excessive vocal sibilance effectively, with separate controls for soft (S, Sh, Z) and hard (T, Ch, K) sibilants. Not only for singing, it's great for cleaning up spoken dialog in film, podcasts, interviews, etc. And since it has real-time AI detection, you can use it live. Features include AI Assist, Real-Time operation, Vocal De-Essing, Human Voice Training, Taming of Soft and Hard Sibilants, and Ease of Use.
