DeEsser Parameters
The Detector parameters are on the left side of the DeEsser window, and the
Suppressor parameters are on the right. The center section includes the Detector and
Suppressor displays and the Smoothing slider.
Detector Section
 Detector Frequency knob: Sets the frequency range the DeEsser analyzes.
 Detector Sensitivity knob: Sets the degree of responsiveness to the input signal. At
higher ratios, the Detector reacts more responsively.
 Monitor pop-up menu: Choose whether to monitor the filtered Detector signal (Det.),
the filtered Suppressor signal (Sup.), or the sound removed from the input signal in
response to the Sensitivity parameter (Sens.). Choose Off to hear the DeEsser output.
Suppressor Section
 Suppressor Frequency knob: Sets the frequency band that is reduced when the
Detector frequency sensitivity threshold is exceeded.
 Strength knob: Sets the amount of gain reduction around the Suppressor frequency.
Center Section
 Detector and Suppressor frequency displays: The upper display shows the Detector
frequency range, and the lower display shows the Suppressor frequency range (in
Hz).
 Smoothing slider: Sets the reaction speed of the gain reduction start and end phases.
Smoothing controls both the attack and release time (as they are used by
compressors).
