Techivation has released a new AI-powered plug-in called AI-De-Esser, designed to simplify the process of reducing sibilance and harshness in audio tracks. This latest addition to Techivation’s AI-powered series offers automatic adaptation to incoming signals, providing fast and effective results with minimal user input (check also our Techivation AI-Loudener feature).
Key Features
The AI-De-Esser boasts several notable features:
- Learn button: Allows the plug-in to analyze and adapt to the audio input
- De-Ess Control: Adjusts the amount of de-essing applied
- Sensitivity: Fine-tunes the plug-in’s response to sibilance
- Dry/Wet Mix: Balances the processed and original signals
- Air Mode: Maintains presence and brightness in the audio
- Mid-Side Processing: Enables separate processing for mid and side channels
- Scalable UI: Adjusts to user preferences

Technology
AI-De-Esser utilizes machine learning to tailor its performance to each track. It continuously analyzes the incoming audio, focusing on areas with high-frequency energy concentration. The plug-in then assesses sibilance and applies spectral compression as needed, resulting in clean and transparent sibilance suppression while preserving the original tone and dynamics.
