What is a De-esser?
A de-esser can be a vital tool in professional audio editing, especially
when working with recorded voice material. The typical scenario is that
you want to keep the ”crispness” of a voice recording, but without getting
the sibilance problems that a simple EQ:ing would add. However, the deesser can of course be used in more creative and untraditional ways.
Esspresso is divided in two parts, the Detector (1) and the Suppressor (2).
The Detector defines where Esspresso listens, and the Suppressor
defines what frequency region that will be compressed."
