SSL DeEss and X-EQ 2 Plug-in Bundle - Electronic Delivery

Product Description

The SSL DeEss and X-EQ 2 Bundle includes Solid State Logic's DeEss threshold de-esser and the SSL Native X-EQ 2 equalizer plug-ins. DeEss is a relative threshold de-esser plug-in with workflow enhancements, mid/side processing, and signal revitalization perfect for reducing excess sibilance and harsh mid-high frequency build-ups. X-EQ 2 is the ultimate SSL EQ toolkit for audio professionals built upon SSL's proprietary anti-cramping algorithms.

SSL DEESS THRESHOLD DE-ESSER PLUG-IN

Solid State Logic DeEss is a workflow-oriented correctional tool for precision sibilance reduction and high-frequency control – used to reduce excess sibilance and harsh mid-high frequency build-ups such as the 'ess' and 'shh' sounds in vocal takes. Alongside workflow enhancements such as automatic auditioning and built-in brighten control for rejuvenating de-essed signals, DeEss uses a relative threshold algorithm: allowing you to change the input level of the signal without a destructive effect on the response of the de-esser. This also means that you can de-ess quiet sibilant events just as effectively as loud ones! With DeEss, you can quickly target only the mid or side components of the signal, as well as toggling in automatic oversampling and lookahead options for a super-high-quality response. Not only this, DeEss features a range of carefully designed presets for different vocal types (Tenor, Alto, Soprano) and instrument processing.

SSL NATIVE X-EQ 2 EQUALIZER PLUG-IN

The Solid State Logic X-EQ 2 is the ultimate SSL EQ toolkit for audio professionals. Built upon SSL’s proprietary anti-cramping algorithms, X-EQ 2 simply sounds stunning. With 17 different classic and modern EQ type/curve options, X-EQ 2 is a formidable and powerful contender to be your new ‘go-to’ EQ plug-in. X-EQ 2 is a highly configurable 24-band EQ plug-in, featuring unique anti-cramping algorithms for an unparalleled open and transparent sound. It’s the ultimate EQ toolkit, with 17 different EQ types and filter shapes. Each band is switchable between bell, shelf, low pass or high pass filter types, with both classic and customizable shapes available for each band. It features brand new spatial processing options, band soloing, and the classic X-EQ 'Parallel' mode for recreating the characteristic sound of old parallel passive EQ circuits.

FEATURES:

• 24-band fully parametric high quality digital EQ, featuring unique SSL anti-cramping algorithms
