Sibilance

Waves

Sibilance is a sophisticated de-esser plugin that uses Waves' Organic ReSynthesis technology to remove harsh vocal 's' and 'sh' sounds with transparency and precision. It identifies and attenuates sibilant frequencies while preserving the natural timbre, duration, and resonance of the original vocal, making it ideal for cleaning up vocal recordings without introducing artifacts or audible processing.
