Sibilance, is the trebley high end distortion that results when a singer pronounces "SSSS" sounds.......again can be slightly improved with the old tights & wire coathanger, but not as much as the Pop's....(See "Pop")
S, sh, and ch sounds in spoken word or singing.
The distortion of sibilants by recording and reinforcement systems incapable of handling the high frequencies present in such sounds. See also "Saturation".
High frequency whistling or lisping sounds that affects vocal recordings, due either to poor mic technique or excessive equalisation. Usually an emphasis of s, sh or ch sounds.
Hissing sound. The "S" sound in "this", "rose", "pressure".
Of, characterized by, or producing a hissing sound like that of (s) or (sh)
An undesirable vocalization that occurs when sounds such as "s", "sh" or "ch" are over accentuated resulting in high-frequency distortion.
High frequency whistling or lisping sounds in vocal recordings, usually caused by poor mic technique or excessive EQ.
Incorrect negative or positive densities result in cross modulation distortion, heard as spitting s's, and "muddy" orchestral sounds. (NB. Relates to Variable area sound tracks only)
A hissing sound produced when pronouncing S and Z. Sibilance is undesirable in professional sound reinforcement and can be controlled through the use of a "de-esser" like Valley Audio's 401 Microphone Processor, 815 Dynamic Sibilance Processor, or 730 DynaMap Digital Dynamics Processor.
When a microphone reproduces strongly emphasized 's' and 'ch' sounds in speech.
Energy from a voice centred around 7 kHz caused by pronouncing "s", "sh" or "ch" sounds.
Excessive amount of vocal hiss when consonants such as "s" are spoken.
Voice recordings often contain excessive loudness of the voice sibilants, and this effect is sometimes called sibilance. The most difficult sibilants to reproduce accurately are the sounds "s" and "sh". This effect is reduced by the use of a de-esser.
Sibilance, refers to the 'hissing' sound of the oral repetition of the "s" or "z" sound. A minor form of alliteration, it emphasises and draws out the word, which can make a point more memorable.
The presence of strongly emphasized s, sh, ch, z, j sounds in speech called sibilants. These consonants are created by air moving through the vocal tract and being constricted by the position of the tongue and lips.
