Best VST de-esser?

[rushofblood]

My voice/mic combo is way too sibilant, so I might need a de-esser? Doesn't have to be free, but preferably.

Spitfish works very well.

Waves De-esser is awesome...

Yup, Spitfish is worth every penny you don't have to pay for it, and then some.

Like they said spitfish, you lose nothing by giving it a try.

Spitfish, You can also get some cool effects with it and a modulator, almost like a talking backwards but forwards effect

It may not be cheap, but I am glad I got the dbx 376 Tube Channel Strip. I use it only for my vocal mic. It is extremely flexible and has an excellent de-esser that is very adjustable.

If you have a mutliband compressor you can use that as a de-esser. Set your attack to around 5ms and release to around 50ms, and then set frequency to around 5kHz-10kHz.
But I tend to use Waves de-esser. Its good.
