Review - Sonnox Oxford Dynamic EQ

In this video review, Pro Tools Expert Team Member Julian Rodgers tries the new Sonnox Dynamic EQ. Using a vocal from "Floodlights" by Corinna Jane, he uses the Dynamic EQ to tame harsh upper mids and control stray plosives.

More On The Sonnox Oxford Dynamic EQ

This plug-in offers an excellent sounding dynamic EQ with powerful features which go beyond the capabilities of some of the competition.

Features

  • 5 bands of the Oxford Type-3 EQ curve which offer proportional-Q, often considered the most musical EQ curve-type

  • All bands can overlap fluidly without the static phase distortion or low frequency artefacts associated with multiband compressors

  • Each band can process and/or detect from mono, stereo, mid or side channels

  • Flexible per-band internal/external side chain controls

  • A clear and informative GUI simplifies the often-complex workflows associated with multiband dynamic plug-ins

  • Flexible upwards/downwards compression and upwards/downwards expansion

  • Engage the effect either by setting a level threshold or by using the unique onset detection feature for very precise transient processing
