Anyone using Weiss 501/502 De-esser to tame sibilance?


Am wondering how effective this feature of the Weiss dacs might be. 

Any Weiss owners out there regularly utilizing this?

If so, can you comment on its effectiveness?

I have used it on occasion with my Weiss Helios, it’s quite effective.  I would imagine the DSP algorithms are the same across products but not positive.  You should email Weiss, chances are you will hear from Mr. Daniel Weiss directly.

Sorry, I have not used the Weiss products, but FWIW, if sibilance is a significant enough issue in your system, I would examine the whole chain to see if it is being caused by a specific component. I have no detectable sibilance in my system, but then my ears aren’t what they used to be on the higher frequencies.
