Transform your vocal tracks with precision and ease using the sonible smart:deess, a groundbreaking de-esser plugin that goes beyond the ordinary. Unlike traditional de-essers that merely squash high frequencies, smart:deess employs a fully trained neural network to intelligently detect and process sibilance and plosives. By analyzing the entire phoneme, it provides a more natural and balanced sound, allowing your recordings to shine without harshness.

With smart:deess, you don't just reduce the volume of "ess" sounds; you shape and refine them using advanced spectral processing technology. This plugin creates a detailed 'voiceprint' of your vocal input, letting you focus on perfecting your sound rather than correcting it. It intuitively understands the distinct characteristics of each phoneme—whether it's an "S," "Z," or "T"—and processes them independently, ensuring each sound is treated with the care it deserves.

The AI-driven processing ensures that smart:deess automatically adjusts its settings according to your source material. This content-aware approach allows for more precise adjustments, making tedious manual clip-gaining a thing of the past. Additionally, the Color controls provide you with the flexibility to tune the character of the sibilants—soft, balanced, or sharp—thereby breathing new life into dull or lisping sounds.

Key Features:

• AI processing for automatic adjustment to source material
• Content-aware phoneme detection for precise de-essing
• Advanced spectral processing for shaping and refining sounds
• Color controls for tuning sibilant character
• Compatible with macOS and Windows, supporting AU, VST2, VST3, AAX formats
