Another free de-esser , by "antress" (not "antares")

[Trebor]

Just discovered another free de-esser VST which works in Audacity [ Windows only ]...

the font is barely readable but the effect works. Setting the frequency is easier than on Spitfish.

'Simply and Straighforwardly' before-after, antress de-esser.wav

The letter "S" is too loud on the "before" , (maybe I've removed too much sibilance on the "after" )

It does not have the "listen" option which is available on "Spitfish" and "Lisp" , but I can live without that.

[ Slightly concerned that the name is very close to antares , use at own risk ].

"Antress Modern Plugins" have been around for a long time and include a number of good effects. I don't think the name poses a risk to users.

My tin foil hat is on too tight , [ the similarity of antress to antares just reminded me of typosquatting ]
