AVA De-Esser is the latest software implementation of Harrison’s famous De-Esser algorithm, used in cutting-edge post-processing equipment around the world. Now in its fourth generation, the Harrison De-Esser algorithm is in constant demand by our clients in high-end studios around the world.
Harrison’s reputation as a “True Analog In-The-Box” is built on our unique heritage of first creating an analog console processor and then converting that processor to digital while retaining the sound and character of the original analog system.
AVA De-Esser implements Harrison’s 4th generation de-esser algorithm to detect and eliminate harsh sibilants in real time.
• Intelligent algorithm operates on harsh sibilance while ignoring other fricatives.
• Band Solos and Auto-Solo feature helps the user dial-in the sibilant frequency range.
• Capable of up to 12dB reduction in sibilance.
• Adjustable threshold & depth allow fine control over the processor’s onset and strength.
• Fast and easy-to-use interface with 6 control dimensions accessible in the main graph.
• Zero-latency processing, suitable for “live” use.
• Gain-reduction meter appears on ProTools mixer strip. (AAX format only).
• The results are quintessentially Harrison: effortless, smooth and transparent.

The Waves de-Esser is great for trimming a bit of stray high-frequency content off the top of a sound. It’s also very simple to use, and very inexpensive – especially if caught on the Waves $29 sale. De-Essing Options in FL Studio In this tutorial we explore three methods for de-essing vocals in FL Studio using the tools supplied. Most good de-essers are simply band-limited compressors repackaged and labelled so they can be called a ‘de-esser’.
SPITFISH is a dead-easy to use de-esser, aimed mainly at mono or stereo vocal tracks. Just like classic analog de-essers, this unit dynamically filters out harsh, annoying s-like sounds that would otherwise 'spit' in your face.
Update: I just finished the work on version 1.2, which I now offer as a free download below.
This version brings an all new “decent” GUI, kindly created by DeLaMancha (www.delamancha.co.uk), the de-normal and multicore-problems are (hopefully) fixed. Also a few other internal improvements are addressed in this release.

Here’s a little description taken from the included user manual:
About:
Tonmann DeEsser is a basic high frequency dynamic processor VST plugin, called a DeEsser
because it’s mainly designed to get rid of “stinging” sibilants that may occur on vocals after
compression or adding a high boost.
It may be used with any host software that can load and use VST2.4/32bit-compatible plugins,
tested by the author are Cakewalk Sonar (4, 7), Sony Sound Forge (9) and DirectiXer (2.5).
It should work in 64bit hosts using a “bitbridge”, but this is untested by the author.
User-feedback about compatibility (or not) with other host softwares is welcome and very
appreciated.
The plugin has been carefully designed to suppress any artificial or alienated sound that may arise
under awkward situations with some other (even some hardware) DeEssers.
Features:
• True independent stereo operation, but also runs in mono mode
• Wideband and lowpass reduction modes selectable
• Fully adjustable center frequency and bandwidth of the detection range
• Adjustable detection threshold to retain the “crisp” sound character of a vocal
• Look ahead feature for sibilants with short and sharp attacks
• Adjustable release time
• Wide-ranging adjustable attenuation for being able to use it before or after a compressor, just like you prefer
• “What you remove” listen mode, one actually hears what’s going to be suppressed
• Two level readouts for optical supervision
There’s a small tutorial on YouTube about vocal processing that features my deesser. 🙂
Hint:
At the moment this plugin is Windows-only and still 32bits. If your DAW does not support loading of 32bit-plugins, you may need a wrapper like jBridge or try to find another solution.
