With Smooth Sibilance, Tuned Plugins delivers a specialised vocal tool that tackles precisely where many voices become unpleasant in the mix: sharp S, T and SH sounds. Instead of flattening the entire high-frequency range, this de-esser plugin works precisely and musically. The result is clean, present vocals that retain their brilliance without hissing or grating on the ear.
While many DeEssers solve the problem technically, they often rob the voice of its airiness, brilliance and expression in the process. Smooth Sibilance is designed precisely for the opposite approach. The processing focuses on the problematic frequencies whilst preserving the open character of the recording. This ensures the voice remains clear, intelligible and modern, rather than sounding heavily processed.
This is a real advantage, particularly for pop vocals, rap, podcasts, voice recordings and modern vocal production, because sharp sounds can quickly become annoying, but a dull mix is just as unhelpful.
The integrated smart detection specifically isolates sibilant frequencies, rather than indiscriminately cutting entire high-frequency ranges. As a result, Smooth Sibilance intervenes precisely where harshness arises, leaving the rest of the voice largely untouched. This ensures a very natural result and often saves several correction steps in everyday use.
Not every voice sibilates in the same place. That is precisely why Smooth Sibilance offers targeted frequency targeting, allowing you to precisely adjust the relevant range. In addition, the reduction level can be adapted to different voices. This means the plugin works equally well on bright female vocals as well as on darker voices, rap recordings or speech tracks.
Another plus point is the clear visual feedback. Gain reduction and frequency focus are displayed live, allowing settings to be adjusted more quickly and confidently. This is particularly helpful in sessions with many vocal tracks, as you don’t have to spend time guessing but can see immediately where the plugin is working.
With Threshold, Speed and Ratio, Smooth Sibilance offers enough control options to cleanly adjust everything from subtle smoothing to more pronounced correction. The transitions remain pleasantly smooth, so there is no pumping or unnatural behaviour. This is precisely what makes the plugin interesting for more demanding vocals, where a simple one-knob de-esser often works too coarsely.
Input and Output allow you to quickly adjust the signal, whilst Auto Gain helps to keep the loudness stable during editing. This allows you to hear more clearly what has actually been improved, rather than being misled by differences in level. This makes the workflow significantly more reliable and relaxed.
Smooth Sibilance is ideal for producers, mixers, voice-over artists and vocal editors who want to achieve clear, professional vocal results quickly. The plugin is excellent for vocals, podcasts, voiceovers, rap, streaming and speech editing, and is particularly effective when sibilance becomes distracting but the high-frequency range needs to remain lively.
