The dynamics section of Sony's OXF-R3 console with full independent parameter control in plug-in form.
The Sonnox Oxford Dynamics plug-in is modeled on the extremely flexible and capable unit used in Sony's OXF-R3 professional mixing console. Resulting from many years of research into professional dynamics processing applications, the Oxford Dynamics plug-in offers separate Compress, Limit, Expand, Gate, and sidechain EQ functions, with full independent control of all parameters. The digital signal processing plug-in features a selectable time constant curves and variable soft compress functions allow the user to confidently tackle all common uses of compression, from subtle unobtrusive level control and mastering functions to the production of great artistic effects. The use of a feed-forward architecture with logarithmic sidechain processing, making use of look-ahead techniques, ensures exemplary sonic characteristics and dynamic accuracy, with an artistic capability simply unavailable from other single units — analog or digital. This highly sophisticated and professional digital signal processing tool obviates the need for many of the separate applications most users keep for specific uses.
