Fabfilters new De-esser - Pro-DS

Fabfilters recently came out with a new desser -Pro-DS. I have their Pro bundle (Compressor, Limters, EQ, Gate) and they are my goto plugins for precision control. (I tend to use the UAD plugins for color.) I am mixing two songs (The Story and Someday Soon) with a new soprano. She's not terrible on sibilance, but as you can imagine, those songs benefit from some help.

Compressors and Filters (Plus a low hiss)

I have a low-end home studio that I am building (in my garage), and am looking for a decent compressor to add to my collection of equipment. Unfortunately, I am painfully ignorant when it comes to audio compression, gates, and filters. I record mostly vocals, and unfortunately my recordings are ugly uncompressed audio and has a slight hiss to it.

pop filters

i got a 55.00 gift cert. to sweetwater from my girls for a birthday. bless them i need a few more zero's behind that anyway most of my work has been touring. I'm new to this recording world but i was thinking maybe a pop filter are there any out that that you could buy in that price range thxs for any input in advance. i've been busy recording and not having to get on a bus or plane. peace

Pop Filters - Which to use?

Many of you know I am going to pick up a AT4040 next week. with a popfilter a preamp, for doing podcast development. I had a pop filter picked out, which was the kind that is a glove style goes over the top of the mic. There is also the other style which hangs in front of it and circular. Is there a audio benefit to either of them.
