i need to snatch a de-esser plug in asap. i already have the waves de esser but its not getting the job done. i tried one in acid also. no go. i havent tried the one in cubase SX. ive tried notching and eq but i cant get the job done. i might eq and compress (side chain) and see if i can de-ess the vocal tracks that way (this usually works with HARDWARE).

someone get at me with some info.

thanx.


:H:

ps why the HELL are you reading this if you DONT know what the hell im talking about and cant help???????

SPL DeEsser

This is the hardware version. They did make a VSTversion of this also, but it's not on there site anymore??????????? If you look on the web I'm sure you could find it somewhere. It was pretty cheap too, from what I remember.

If you haven't heard of SPL they take basic concepts and add there own new idea's to them, and make some of the best equipment out there bar none. I've heard and read only great things about them.

Wave's also has the Renissonce DeEsser ( I think thats how you spell it ) which is a new improved version of there DeEsser, or you could try waves C1 ( if you have it ) which is frequency spefic, so just go to 5k or 7k or where ever the offending Ess's are and you could do it that way also ( The C1 uses side chain like you already suggested put in plug in form).

Try the SPL thing though..........

heresy, if you have aim, I can shoot you the waves C1 pack. The only problem is catching me on there. JRdaPalePimp keep an eye out, or hit me on my cell, we can coordinate a time.

Well shit................

Waves Renasissance DeEsser



Thats the one I was talking about. never used it so I dont know if it really is better than the regular waves desser. I wasn't to impressed with the regular deesser either. At least with the C1 you have more control ( ratio, attack, release, threshold etc.. )...
