DL DeReser 1.0 by DarlingLee is a Max for Live device designed for precise resonance suppression in audio recordings. It features automatic detection of resonance peaks, allowing the user to target unwanted frequencies by adjusting parameters like attenuation range, processing strength, and smoothing time. With 14 independent switches for different frequency bands, this plugin offers detailed control to isolate and suppress specific resonances, accommodating various signal types including mono and stereo. Distinct processing modes cater to male and female vocals as well as monophonic instruments, enhancing versatility. The device also includes an adaptive Q value feature for frequency-dependent processing curves. While it provides sophisticated audio manipulation capabilities, users should note a processing delay of 20 to 256 milliseconds, making it ideal for mixing environments rather than live performance contexts.
