Product information

Antares Vocal De-Esser

Vocal De-Esser is an innovation in low-latency vocal processing, incorporating artificial intelligence and a custom-trained model that uses machine learning to detect and control sibilance in the human voice. This specialized training allows it to remove undesirable “Ess” sounds in real-time without compromising the vocal characteristics or tone, resulting in a smoother and more pleasant listening experience. 

The Vocal De-Esser features a straightforward and user-friendly interface that allows for quick and easy operation. It includes two specific Sibilant Controls for managing (S, Sh, Z) and (T, Ch, K) vocal sounds, a Solo button for monitoring sibilance alone, a Link button for connecting the two sibilant controls, and an Assist button for activating the AI function. 

Tame Sibilants in Your Vocals

Hissing 'S' and tiring 'T' sounds, known as sibilants, can ruin an otherwise perfect vocal recording. Vocal De-Esser quickly removes these harsh vocal sounds with the push of a single button. The result is more time to focus on your mix.

Artificial Intelligence, Genuine Confidence

Antares worked with professional vocalists to ensure the AI powering Vocal De-Esser truly understands the nuances of the human singing voice. The result is a powerful yet simple-to-use plug-in that delivers real-time sibilance control you can trust.

SSSave Your Mix

Target excessive vocal sibilance where it matters most. Vocal De-Esser features separate controls to tame soft (S, Sh, Z) and hard (T, Ch, K) sibilants, each one uniquely tuned for ultimate effectiveness in reducing these harsh vocal sounds.

Speak Easy

Not just for singing. Use Vocal De-Esser to clean up spoken dialog for film, podcasts, interviews and more. Since the AI-Powered detection operates in real-time, you can even apply it in a live setting.
