Plugin Alliance Lindell Audio 902 De-Esser v1.0.0 WiN/MAC [MORiA]

Lindell Audio 902 De-Esser is an audio effect for reducing vocal sibilance and taming sharp high frequencies in instruments. Inspired by the classic dbx 902 hardware, it suits home producers and mix engineers who want straightforward control over harsh vocals, cymbals and guitars without constantly adjusting a threshold.

Rather than reacting to a fixed signal level, the plugin compares the selected high-frequency content with the rest of the audio. This lets its processing follow changes between softer and louder passages. Set the target frequency and the amount of gain reduction to shape the response with minimal setup.

Additional controls help you judge and refine the result. Blend dry and processed audio with the Mix knob, or use the Air control to add a smooth treble lift after de-essing. The Listen function lets you audition the sidechain and gain reduction separately, while a real-time graphical display makes the processing easier to follow.

For producers working in compatible hosts such as FL Studio or Ableton Live, the 902 offers a focused way to manage excessive brightness while mixing.
