iLA DeEsser

Softer S sounds. Clearer listening.

A bright vocal can also bring out sharp S sounds and breathy edges. iLA DeEsser helps turn those moments down as they happen, so you can keep the voice bright without making every word feel sharp.

Made for Singing, podcasts and spoken recordings with prominent sibilance.
