It is my favourite so far. I don't have Sonnox or Eiosis to compare (which I believe are as good as others say) but this one gives me more control than I had with Renn or the stock deessers. I also like to use a dynamic EQ with analyzer (F6 or Nova) to be able to see exactly where are the frequency peaks created by the Sss but I have been using Sibilance almost exclusively since I got it.

I have it and works really well. I can say it’s invisible.

Nice to hear. I've been doing a lot of VO lately, so this could end up being really useful. Eager to check it out.

Yeah Sibelence is quite transparent. It’s designed using Waves new tech that sounds more transparent and natural than regular Fourier Transform algorithms. Well that’s the what the press says, but it does seem to deliver in both Torque and Sibelance.

Hi
I recently did demo the hofa IQ-Deesser and silbilance. The IQ-Deesser does some deessing some other can not do. It worked very well on female resonating sssss. Was better than sibilance on my dialog tracks

Ale

Got it too, also my favorite so far. Simple controls and really foolproof design. Difficult to get artifacts even if you abuse it.

I loved it, but sadly had to leave it behind when I switched to PC.

It was great though - set and forget, for me. Gotta love that.
