Waves Renaissance DeEsser
De-Esser Plugin
A New Solution to a Persistent Problem
De-essing is an essential process when recording vocals, voiceover, audiobooks, and podcasts.
Excessive high frequencies caused by "ess" and "shh" sounds can cause distortion, splattering, and make equalization more difficult.
Renaissance DeEsser solves these problems, and more.
Renaissance DeEsser delivers transparent, artifact-free de-essing that focuses on reducing ess sounds with laser-like precision.

- Display shows filter type, range, frequency, and real-time de-essing
