Wha...? Wow. I thought the DEQ was MOTU's de-esser "option". :shock:

Doug, you really are a genius. I mean, who'd have thunk it?

Exactly. Your example is typical of the latest flavour of the month for the lemming-like lyricists we have to put up with down here in Jungleville. The only up-side is that in a month's time it'll be another consonant, hopefully not a sibilant one. I hate it when it's esses for a month, followed by tees. By the end of that second month I'm cravin' plosives... non-sibilant plosives, that is.

Aah... life in Jungleville. Livin' the dream...
