Oxford SuprEsser DS
SuprEsser DS delivers real-time de-essing with sub-2ms latency and AAX-DSP support. Tailored for live sound, it offers precise control over harsh frequencies from 1kHz to 20kHz, ensuring transparent, professional results.
Description
Experience unparalleled control over your vocal and audio tracks with the Sonnox Oxford SuprEsser, the industry-standard de-essing plugin. Designed to remove harsh sibilance and undesirable frequencies, the Oxford SuprEsser brings precision to vocal processing and audio enhancement, effortlessly reducing harsh sounds without compromising the tonal integrity of your mix. Unlike standard de-essers, this advanced plugin features a linear-phase design that allows for targeted frequency detection and smooth, transparent processing. With its intuitive interface and frequency-specific thresholding, the SuprEsser adapts to both broad and narrow band processing, enabling users to isolate problematic areas across vocal, instrument, and mix bus applications. Perfect for producers and audio engineers looking for seamless, professional results, the Oxford SuprEsser streamlines your workflow, ensuring your tracks remain crisp and controlled. Achieve a polished sound without compromise, enhancing clarity in vocals and preserving the natural qualities of your mix for refined audio production every time.
The SuprEsser DS Difference
While SuprEsser delivers full-spectrum dynamic control for mixing and mastering, SuprEsser DS focuses on the critical 1kHz to 20kHz range — where unwanted sibilance and harsh frequencies occur — making it quicker, more focused and more efficient to use in fast-paced live scenarios.
Key features
-
Optimised Frequency Range (1kHz to 20kHz)
Unlike the full-spectrum Oxford SuprEsser, SuprEsser DS focuses specifically on the 1kHz to 20kHz range—where sibilance and harsh frequencies reside. This allows for quicker, more efficient de-essing, helping you instantly identify and dial out problem.
-
Floating Threshold for Dynamic Adaptability
SuprEsser DS uses a floating threshold that dynamically tracks your signal in real-time, adjusting the de-essing based on the input level. Whether it’s a soft whisper or a powerful chorus, SuprEsser DS ensures smooth, transparent control without overprocessing.
-
Advanced Listen Modes & FFT Display
With three listen modes (Mix, Inside, Outside) and a clear FFT display, SuprEsser DS gives you the tools to target specific problem areas with precision. You can see and hear the frequencies you need to adjust, whether you’re taming sibilance on a vocal, reducing harsh cymbals, or controlling guitar overtones.
Why SuprEsser DS is Essential for Live Sound
SuprEsser DS is purpose-built for AAX-DSP systems, making it a perfect fit for Avid S3L and S6L live consoles and Pro Tools HDX users. With sub-2ms latency, it’s optimised for real-time performance environments, delivering precise de-essing without delay.
