IcePick
An event-based de-esser that finds sibilance, hard consonants, and breaths and works through each one the way you would by hand. Clean first pass. Every event still yours to touch.
macOS · VST3 / AU / AAX
Launch price $99. Goes to $199 on July 19.
THREE DETECTION MODES
Each artifact type gets its own detector. Fix one thing without touching the others.
Sibilance
S, T, and Z sounds isolated with precision. Reduce harshness without dulling the vocal.
Hard Consonants
Every P, B, and T caught individually. Tame the crack without losing punch.
Breath
Inhales and exhales detected automatically. You decide how much stays.
Tame Peaks
Tame Peaks applies context-aware reduction in just one click, the way a seasoned engineer would by hand. Every edit is still yours to make.
Swap Mode
Don't like that breath or “S”? Swap it out! IcePick lets you instantly audition matching events in context.
Formant Mode
Shape character. Formant Mode goes beyond traditional de-essing by targeting & shifting only formants of harsh frequencies.
