The Sonnox Oxford Dynamic EQ Plug-In is a transparent and musical mastering tool designed for fixing problem frequencies when it is not possible for the engineer to go back in the mix. Traditional equalization may work well in certain parts of the song but not in other parts. This plug-in addresses this issue by cutting/boosting frequencies only when the signal reaches a set threshold, achieving the desired effect without the need for time-consuming automation. It is ideal for adding presence and brightness to a mix, reducing harshness on solo instruments, fixing sibilance and plosive sounds on vocals, and more.
The Oxford Dynamic EQ splits the input signal into multiple parallel paths, each filtered using five bands of Type-3 EQ curve. It features gain/Q dependency whereby the Q value reduces with gain, providing the plug-in with a soft characteristic resembling that of analog EQs.
Dynamic gain reduction/expansion is applied to the EQ’s gain parameter, a process that reduces static phase shift and latency. The Onset detection function enables Oxford Dynamic EQ to react only to sudden increases in signal level, detecting transients, staccato notes, and sibilance, while ignoring the overall peak level. This feature is useful when working with drums, percussions, or vocals.
Other options include sidechain control, adjustable attack/release time, and mid-side processing. A clear and informative GUI helps simplify and speed up your workflow. This product is available for Mac and Windows platforms. It operates in AAX DSP formats, as well as AAX native, RTAS, Audio Units, and VST formats.
