Re-Esser

Re-Esser

Re-Esser reimagines what a de-esser can be, it's the new evolution of vocal control. It separates sibilance from tonal, letting you shape vocals and dialogue with a precision and creativity no de-esser has ever offered.

Beyond the De-Esser

Re-Esser is the next generation of de-essing. By intelligently separating sibilance from the tonal elements of your audio, it lets you process each layer independently. You gain surgical control to tame harshness while preserving, or even enhancing, the sparkle and detail that make vocals shine.

It also does the simple things better. Re-Esser can do what the best de-essers do in a fraction of the time, just turn down the sibilance level with a single control. No thresholds, no tweaking, no guesswork. And when you’re ready to go further, it unlocks a world of possibilities that no traditional de-esser could ever offer.

This isn’t just a new tool, it’s a shift in how engineers and producers approach vocals and dialogue. Discover Re-Esser, a plugin that’s redefining the standard.

Advanced sibilance detection

Re-Esser features a cutting-edge detection system that precisely identifies and isolates sibilant content without artifacts, guesswork, or compromise. Say goodbye to manual thresholds that change from track to track: Re-Esser adapts intelligently, delivering natural, professional results every time.

This smart approach means faster workflows and pristine outcomes, whether you're working on a lead vocal or dialogue. It’s precision that simplifies your chain, accelerates your process, and enhances every mix you work on.

A World of Possibilities

Re-Esser isn’t limited to basic de-essing, though it excels at that, it’s a versatile powerhouse that opens creative doors you never knew existed. It transforms a routine corrective process into a canvas for sonic innovation.

• Compress sibilance without touching the tone.
• Add reverb only to the tonal layer.
• Shift tonal pitch while keeping sibilance natural.
• Restore over-de-essed recordings.
• Boost top-end without reintroducing harshness.
• Saturate vocals without sacrificing intelligibility.
• Sculpt sibilance with EQ exactly how you want it.
• Create dreamy, characterful textures with modulation and ambience.

Once you separate the signal, you’ll start seeing creative opportunities you never thought possible.

Complete vocal suite

Using the main volume knob to boost or reduce the sibilance already makes a big difference to your sound. But Re-Esser also comes with 16 high-quality studio effects that you can apply to the tonal and sibilant components independently, exponentially expanding the plugin’s sonic capabilities and turning it into a complete vocal suite.

Thanks to its powerful grouping function that synchronizes detection across instances, Re-Esser also lets you use your own plug-ins in perfect synchrony, opening up endless creative possibilities beyond its built-in effects.

Built-in effects can be easily added, bypassed, removed, and rearranged in any order you like, all in the simplest way possible. Everything is just one click away, allowing you to work quickly and efficiently.

Perfect for Music and Post

Because it’s so tuned for the voice, Re-Esser works brilliantly on sung vocals. It tames sibilance without dulling the emotion, so the top end stays open and alive.

It’s just as powerful in post. Dialogue mixers can keep speech intelligible and natural, without nasty whistling S sounds or lisp-like artefacts.
