Demonstrated better than I can demonstrate it
Thank you!
Turning down Intense... That's a nice tip!
BTW, I was asked (and I wondered myself) if it'd be possible to modify this plugin to tame plosives? DePlode? :D
@@unfa00 Once I get back home I can try. It would be more like a special case uni-polar version of the ToTape head bump :)
@@airwindows That'd be fantastic!
I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you, Chris. You make wonderful plugins, they are very handy and help to achieve great results.
i really love airwindows plugins, they are really good
thank you this is awesome
I had this sitting in my plugin list for a while. What a nice way to demonstrate this. Love Chris's plugins all the way! Cheers (...and subscribed :) )
that visualization is... top notch !
i'm running out of words...
Great demo. Many thanks. This really helps. I recently discovered the Airwindows plug ins and use them a lot.
I highly recommend EasyEffects (pipewire) for those who wants to apply filters like de-esser, compressor, gate, noise reduction, etc. directly to your live microphone input. This is great for obtaining that radio voice for your live conference calls. Makes my Røde NT-USB Mini sound fantastic.
Superb video thank you 👍
thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Hail airwindows!
Amazing Unfa, as always!!! BTW, recently PaulXStretch have been updated, it's amazing and finally it have an easy access linux build :3
Thanks! Yeah, that's awesome news :D
Thank you very helpful
youre so good
02:48 , thank you for the laughs 🙂
Gold plugin too, thank you for letting us know about it
Great video. Would be great if you could demonstrate some other plugins by Chris too, as you explain them better than the designer can - as Chris acknowledges! I particularly like Tape6 by Airwindows & use it on everything!
Thanks!
Regarding ToTape6 - I'd need to do some solid search on it first to make an "in-depth" video :)
Yet another airwindows plugin I have to use, based
This is one I think I use most, 2nd place would be ToTape5.
@@unfa00 explains why you're so on my case about using de essers for vocals
Cool! I'll give this a try. I wonder if something like this could be done for plosives, like a virtual pop filter?
I think that's a really cool idea. I was looking for a good way to remove plosives for a long time, and I think maybe a variation on this algorithm could finally do that cleanly?
@@unfa00 I use the Kenny Gioa (Reapermania) method of getting rid of plosives: basically, just slice and zoom into the plosive and reduce the volume of that tiny seqment. It becomes too short for the ear to register it & works a treat - problem solved!!
@@unfa00 Accusonus ERA Bundle, now it´s free.
Please do the x 32 plug inside, rally good 👍
Great Video, great Plugin! I have to admit though that I giggled a bit when you "remove[d] all the asses energy".
Can you explain how to set the scope to show the difference between dry and processed signals?
I've used Pin Connections on the Track level to route the unprocessed signal to the left channel of the x42 Simple Scope Stereo, and then passed the processed one to the right channel (or reverse, it doesn't matter).
In SiSco you can click Common Y offset button and that'll make the two waveforms overlap additively, so where they are on top of each other you see yellow, and either green or red where one is present but not the other.
To route the dry signal I had to swithc pin connections fro Debess to manual, add an extra output, and route the input directyl to it, bypassing the plug-in. This way I had both dry and wet signals passing down the processing chain so I can connect them to the Simple Scope for visualisation.
I hope that helps?
Great! I am going to try that out, it is very useful. Thanks
Im just getting into airwindows. very interesting stuff. is that harrison mixbus or ardour? i love mixbus but its sorta buggy and a cpu hog. but its great for mixing and mastering & high sound quality
Hey! I use Ardour. Mixbus is built on Ardour with proprietary DSP processing added - I never tried it, as it's just not up my alley. Also - every competent DAW that uses 32-bit floating point audio processing will have perfect sound quality (unless something is really messed up) - there's no secret sauce needed to achieve that. This is how digital audio works - it's perfectly transparent by default. I guess Mixbus has that "sauce" added for emulating a hardware mixer, though using Airwindows Console plug-ins you can simulate analog summing in Ardour or any other DAW for free. It is open-source code as well :)
@@unfa00 Ultimately the real “transparency” Of digital boils down to clock accuracy and converters but thats been discussed AdBarfium lol
interesting
"fishsticks" covers it all.
so, it's an up/down squiggles remover
Only if they are sufficiently sharp.
great stuff i use it as first slight de esser on vocal mixes; czcams.com/video/VM2CZasVu14/video.html
i use it kinda different to u though
do tube2/buttercomp/pressure5/varimu next
Please tell me that you did not use it on the sound of your video ?
DeBess is a part of my recording/streaming setup so I am pretty sure all dialogue was processed with it, unless it's the pre-recorded demo text that was deliberately recorder raw.
Why?
@@unfa00 Im afraid the sibilance of your own voice are a bit tough 😂
@@johanjof5613 Darn!
i like rats
If Linux is so great, why isn't it called Airlinux? xD
i dont use deesser. my mic is good enought
Negative as always :D
@@unfa00 this is not negative! that looks my work like
@@andx4024 show us your work \o/
so your mic won't pickup the frequencies in a sibilant sound ? sounds like you need a better mic .. sibilance is actually a tool used by writers like Shakespeare and some guy named Bob Dylan but what the heck would they know, one don't always want a total absence but to be able to control it
@@RobvandenBerg290569 and a photo of this magic mic would be nice as well .. LOL even louder !
