Great Video! Fabfilter's new de-esser has been the best I've worked with so far, and exceptionally transparent and easy to dial in.

Could anyone please tel me if it's best to put the 'Deesser' 1st on the channel strip before the EQ or after ?

nice to see what different de-essers do. I tend to use the percision De-Esser from UAD. But I think that oxford is well designed with the mind what fits a fast edit and continue fastest to the next step in the mix. More time left :)

darrendrums: Wouldn't that be wonderful? YOu could but then you loose the proximity effect. For some music it's the best thing, for toehr music it's more difficult. Also most singers have no forward vision about the mix and will freak out because they'll complain that 'it sounds like I am faraway'. I always push singers back as far as they'll stand before they get upset :-)

Can't we ask the singer to stand further back ?

Great tutorial!!! Love it, love it, love it!!!

I have a question for you...are there frequencies that instantly come to mind when you think of solving sibilance problems? So for example when de-essing a male vocal what would be a good starting point for S, Sh, Th, F, etc.?

I never know where to begin and tend to overly rely on the de-esser to compensate for my ignorance! I would love to know where to begin looking without the aid of a De-esser.

PS Thanks for the heads up on the Eiosis De-Esser. It's a fantastic plugin.
