The Dual-Band De-Esser expands on this concept by making use of two frequency bands that can be used independently or jointly. Now, the Dual Band De-Esser DeS is also available in 500 Series format. The Dual-Band De-Esser expands on this concept by making use of two frequency bands that can be used independently or jointly.
You can use the two processing stages separately or jointly. They are connected in series as independent de-esser modules. The Low-Band De-Esser (Lo-S) is set fi rst in the chain. If both de-essers are engaged, there is interaction between them: a signal already processed with the Low-Band De-Esser is different from the raw material that the High-Band De-Esser would otherwise process.
I've always liked their 19'' rack version - I've had one in the studio since 1998. I replaced it with this 500-series module to save room, and because who needs 2 channels of de-esser ? In addition I was curious to try the 2-band approach this one provides. It does the job pretty well, but I don't think it sounds the same than the original rack. While that old rack was super smooth, this one feels 'harder' (for whatever that means). And, like the rack version, you need to feed it a high enough level if you need it to de-ess heavily.
