The Pro-DS De-Esser Software from FabFilter is a production tool to correct sibilance in vocal recordings created by post processing such as compression or saturation. It can be used for applications such as recording studios, sound design, composing, and more. The FabFilter Pro-DS accurately identifies sibilance in vocal recordings and attenuates it transparently. It can also be used for high-frequency limiting of any material like drums or even full mixes when using the “Allround” mode. The software offers everything you need to get the best results possible and is presented in a simple-to-use interface.

The Pro-DS features wide-band or linear-phase split band processing, and has an optional 15 ms look-ahead, adjustable stereo linking with optional mid-only or side-only processing, and up to four times linear-phase oversampling. In addition you get perfectly tuned knobs, MIDI learn, and smart parameter interpolation for smoother parameter transitions. There is also a help file with interactive help hints. The plug-in is available in VST, VST 3, Audio Units, AAX Native and AudioSuite formats, all in both 64-bit and 32-bit, as well as RTAS in 32-bit only.
