About Sonible pure:deess 1.0.1 for Mac
pure:deess is an AI-powered de-essing plugin from sonible. It is part of the company’s streamlined “pure” series of plugins for fast, intuitive results without an extensive parameter set. pure:deess is a VST, VST3, AU and AAX plugin for macOS and Windows that strips out the harsh, sibilant edges of vocals and speech, giving you a smoother, more professional sound in a snap. The current release is version 1.0.1, running natively on Apple Silicon Macs with roughly 70ms of latency. Unlike a traditional de-esser, pure:deess uses an AI-based analysis based on the more sophisticated smart:deess plugin from sonible. Rather than manually targeting frequencies, the plugin uses neural networks to analyze a vocal’s sibilance in seconds, building a “voiceprint” – a profile of that specific voice’s sibilant characteristics, calculated individually for Z, Sh, Ch and T phonemes instead of just “Ess” sounds. This results in a more natural outcome that is closer to the original source material. There are three main parameters to control the whole plugin – Suppression, Color and Shaping – so it can be quickly dialed in for creators who want clean results without getting lost in a complex interface.
