Modern De-Esser: VST Plugin - Free Download

The Modern De-Esser VST plugin by Antress features a rackmount style design. The plugin takes inspiration from hardware units and offers a minimalistic traditional de-essing workflow. As we can see from the user interface, the plugin is very much akin to compressors. The only addition is a frequency knob, which ranges from 3 kHz to 10 kHz and specifies which frequency you want the compressor to attenuate. The workflow is simple: select a frequency, compress it. The Width knob controls the Q-factor of the frequency selector. Use a higher value to make the de-esser cover a more extensive range of frequencies. Modern De-Esser is an excellent place to start learning about de-essing.

Features:
• Gain reduction, threshold, ratio, width, and release controls.
• A frequency control that allows you to adjust between 3,000 and 9,999 Hz.
• Quick and Easy.
• CPU Friendly.
