Toneboosters Tb Sibalance De Esser Plug In For Mac
ToneBoosters has released TB Sibalance which they describe as providing top notch sibilance processing using matched-filter technology for ultra-transparent de-essing. Here's what they have to say about it:
De-essers can be an evil necessity. Vocal recordings may be too sibilant requiring de-essing (or excess sibilance removal), but most de-essers come with very clearly audible drawbacks as well. After de-essing, vocals may sound muffled, the 's' may sound more like an 'f', or even worse, the operation of a de-esser manifests itself as a clearly-audible time-varying filter. TB Sibalance provides very powerful tools to reduce excess sibilance in a minimally invasive way. In contrast to conventional de-essers, TB Sibalance uses so-called 'matched filter' technology to only process those frequencies that are causing excess sibilance, while leaving all other frequency components untouched. The result of TB Sibalance will therefore sound cleaner and more transparent than that obtained with other de-essers.
Sibalance 3.2.0 – plug-in (de-esser) for processing sibilants, using selective filter processing for ultra-transparent results. TimeMachine 3.2.0 – emulator of vintage samplers. VoicePitcher 3.2.0 is a simple but effective plugin for changing the pitch and tone of a voice or voice.
Yet another de-esser?
ToneBoosters already provides two de-essers; the TrackEssentials de-esser with zero latency, and an integrated de-esser in TB Evoke. Both plugins have their own merit, but we thought we should be able to do better. New TB technology, such as ultra-transparent gain processing and tonal decomposition (as featured in the recently overhauled TB BusCompressor), the matched-filter technology from TB Evoke, and a couple of new innovations together result in a much better, powerful and transparent de-esser.
De-essing like a compressor
You may see a very familiar input/output curve in the screenshot that looks like a compressor. In this case, the input/output curve does not relate to level, but to (excess) sibilance. Sibilance is a property of audio that is largely independent of level; signals sound sibilant if there is a relatively large amount of signal energy present in the sibilant range (typically 4-11 kHz) compared to the overall level. Nevertheless, TB Sibalance allows control of sibilance by means of a threshold, a ratio, a soft knee, and a range parameter; much like a compressor. Of course, a dry/wet control is included as well.
Algorithm fusion
TB Sibalance has three algorithms: (1) a broad-band de-esser, (2) a band-limited de-esser, and (3) a matched-filter de-esser. The latter will create a filter dynamically that only reduces sibilant frequencies while leaving everything else untouched. In contrast to many other de-essers, these algorithms can be fused on a continuous scale. Do you want 60% of de-essing using a band-limited de-esser, and the remaining 40% using matched filter technology? Just set the algorithm slider to 1.6 and it is all set. Moving the algorithm slider from 0, to 1, to a value of two seamlessly fuses the broad-band de-esser, the single-band de-esser, and the matched-filter de-esser.
Tonal component sensitivity
In many practical situations, vocal sibilance consists of noise-like signals that one would like to suppress. Tonal or voiced signals, on the other hand, are often better left untouched. Conventional de-essers cannot discriminate between noise-like and harmonic signals – they simply measure energies. With TB Sibalance, the relative contribution of tonal components to the measured sibilance can be adjusted so that the de-esser works much more accurately.
Mid/side processing and high-quality modes
If a bus signal or full track needs de-essing, great results can be obtained by de-essing the mid channel only (this is typically where the vocals are), while leaving the side signals untouched. Mid/side mode of operation is available on TB Sibalance, as well as a control to engage a high-quality mode.
Signal level dependencies
It can be very desirable to reduce excess sibilance for relatively loud parts of a track, while leaving less loud elements untouched. The 'level threshold' control of TB Sibalance influences how sibilant low-level signals are. Basically, if the input signals approach the threshold set for level, the measured sibilance will gradually be reduced, and hence the amount of de-essing will become more subtle or even absent.
Processing of full mixes
Ideally, a sibilance tool is sufficiently flexible to also process full mixes, for example to catch excess esses in a mix, or simply to reduce the mix's harshness. This is why you'll see controls to change the 'voiced' frequency range analysis; for mix processing, these can be set to cover almost the complete audible frequency range.

Version : 1.1.7
Developer : ToneBoosters
Developer’s site : ToneBoosters
Format : VST, VST3, AU
Bit depth : 32bit, 64bit
Tabletka : present
System requirements : Intel CPU, OS X 10.10 or higher SSE2 CPU, Windows 7 SP1 or higher
Description : A set of plugins, consisting of:
Barricade 4.2.3 – Limiter with a brickwall restriction
BusCompressor 3.2.0 – high-quality, transparent dynamic processor with a configurable knee and auto release, suitable for processing individual tracks, as well as complex mixes.
Compressor 3.2.0 – universal compressor, which is suitable for almost any audio content. Its advanced signal analysis algorithms allow a very transparent change in the dynamic range. Conversely, when manually adjusting the parameters, it can provide a “musical pumping effect”
DeEsser 3.2.0 – removes or reduces the excess of vocal sibilants (for example, “ccc” and “shsh”), without affecting the low-frequency (sounded) parts of the signals. There is no need to configure attack or release options, as these properties are automatically configured depending on the input signal. In stereo mode with a separate range of TB DeEsser, it is also possible to limit any excess high-frequency content in other signals, including full stereo mixes.
Dither 3.2.0 – plug-in, designed to convert the bit depth of audio with the least possible loss of quality.
EBUCompact 3.2.0 is a plug-in for measuring the volume of a stereo signal.
EBULoudness 3.2.0 is a plugin for measuring and normalizing sound using the volume level instead of the standard Peak Meter.
Equalizer 4.0.9 is a new dynamic equalizer with an embedded artificial intelligence algorithm for assisting in music mixing. The AI auxiliary function will listen and give recommendations on frequency equalization, depending on the type of audio content.
Evoke 3.2.0 – Virtual dynamic processor and enhancer. It consists of a filter, a transparent compressor, an intelligent limiter, a multiband processor of redundant sibilants and an exciter.
Ferox 3.2.0 – With all the advantages of digital audio processing and recording (low noise, high dynamic range, almost flat frequency response, low distortion), it is sometimes difficult to get the most elusive vintage warmth. It is here that TB Ferox appears. It simulates smooth compression and saturation, which reminds one of those good old days of recording on tape.
FlX 3.2.0 – combines an equalizer and a dynamic processor. It works the same as most EQs; It has 6 filter sections with a large number of controls to change their effect on the spectrum.
Gate 3.2.0 is what the name suggests: a very functional and easy-to-use gate.

Almost all existing headphones introduce undesirable changes in sound. TB Morphit will help reduce these unwanted artifacts by improving the response of the supported headphones. Moreover, it can simulate the sound of any other supported headphones.
ReelBus 4.0.2 is a true analog tape recorder that is designed to accurately simulate all the properties associated with the tape, including frequency and level saturation, intermodulation effects, offset, jamming of tape, noise interference, wow and flutter and clipping of electronic circuits.
