This plug-in installed without any problems. I didn't have any compatibility issues. The configuration is all automatic so you just install it and you can start using it after your DAW can recognize it. The manual is very thorough, so if you take the time to read it before starting up this software you should already be an expert except for hearing the effects.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

I use this on my Dell computer which has an Intel processor and 2GB of ram. I also run this on windows XP and Cubase for a DAW. It works just fine in this configuration, I had no problems. I use it in the VST format, which is what most PC users will be doing as well. This plug-in actually doesn't use that much CPU power, unlike most other waves plugs. Waves tends to be known for high quality and high CPU usage. It has seemed to be very stable, I don't remember this program ever causing me any crashes or problems.

OVERALL OPINION

I have had this for over a year. It really does a great job at de-essing. Nothing can ruin a vocal recording with really harsh overly bright S's and T's. This plugin is like magic on those consonants. It requires relatively little tweaking, and you can start to tamp down on those sounds poking out so much. You do have to be careful though, because you can quickly turn a performance that is overly sibilant into one by someone who sounds like they have a lisp. That is my only real problem with this plug-in, that it can be easy to overdo it. If you use it right though, it can really make a vocal recording sound much better and smoother without a lot of fuss, since it works automatically over the whole track after you give it some guidelines. It is a great value if you do a lot of stuff with vocals that need to be right up front. I would definitely get it again, I use it all the time still.
