Sound Processing System

The De-esser 9629 2-channel SPL is equipped with phase cancellation technology and an automatic threshold function. It is an audio processor specialising in eliminating unwanted sibilant frequencies (sibilants) in a very simple and musical way, without compromising the timbre and natural character of a voice.

ARTICLE N° 57572
SPL has developed a new circuit design that combines ease of use with natural sound characteristics and the highest level of technical performance.

The SPL De-Esser 9629 monitors the S frequency spectrum and automatically detects whistling frequencies. The de-essing bandwidth is set so tightly around the sibilance range that neighbouring frequencies are not affected. The input processed via this frequency band is fed back into the main phase-reversed signal, so that only S sounds are cancelled when the S reduction controller determines the intensity of the phase-cancelled mix.

The result is a neutral, discreet and extremely efficient de-essing process. Even with high S-reduction values, de-essing has a negligible effect on the character and timbre of the voice.

This incredibly simple and effective function is complemented by automatic threshold adjustment. Differences in input level due to varying distance from the microphone are automatically compensated for. This ensures uniform de-essing, regardless of signal level, so that any necessary compression can be applied after de-essing.
