Where I went to college, we had a whole audio engineering department, and they spend endless hours listening and adjusting to become EQ masters. Audio engineers spend their entire careers mastering EQ. If that doesn't work or it takes away any clarity, you might try using a DeEsser plugin. Just find the range where it really becomes pronounced and then try reducing that band. It can help to boost bands in this area one by one until you find the one where the sibilance lives.

If, instead of pleasant sounding s's, z's, and even sh's, try some minor narrow cutting in this range.Ĭhances are the sibilance is in a very narrow frequency range. Sibilance is the unpleasant sound that comes from our voice's "s" sounds.
