3. Overview of Sonnox Plugins, Including Products on Sale
Here is an overview of the main Sonnox products.
Claro
Claro is a comprehensive EQ plugin that covers the whole production process, from composing to the final mix. With three different views, it gradually adds deeper insight and precision, helping you avoid mud, harshness, and grit so your track blends into a clear, balanced mix.
First, the PRODUCE view offers a fast, creative EQ that actively encourages musical creativity while stripping away anything unnecessary or jargon-heavy. The TWEAK view opens up more corrective possibilities and provides the cleanest, most flexible filters, with a real-time analyzer to pinpoint problem resonances. Finally, to understand and assemble the mix, use the MIX view: every track is shown at once, so you can set priorities, examine interactions, and quickly resolve frequency clashes between competing tracks.
Inflator
Inflator is a unique, powerful plugin that increases loudness without sacrificing sound quality or dynamic range. Use it to add power and presence to a mix without the side effects of compression, or on individual channels to push them forward and add weight.
Voca
Voca is the definitive solution for quickly creating professional-sounding vocals. With Voca you not only avoid stacking multiple compressor plugins, but also take your workflow to a whole new level of simplicity and efficiency. Say goodbye to the complexity of threshold, ratio, time constants, gain reduction, and make-up gain. Voca lets you quickly achieve professional vocals that sit perfectly in the mix and captivate listeners, drawing on a series of classic-inspired tools such as the 1176 and LA-2A.
Listen Hub
Note: As of March 2022, Listen Hub is available only on Apple platforms and does not work on Windows systems.
With Listen Hub for macOS, you can make sure your mix holds up against your favorite releases. Easily A/B compare against tracks from any streaming source such as Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, or your own media player. Listen to mid/side, low-mids, or highs in isolation to instantly discover whether your mix is competitive or getting crushed.
Listen Hub’s unique monitoring tools give you the insight to mix better. You can access it directly from your Mac, and there are also free iOS/Android apps for tablets and smartphones. Listen Hub blends the immediacy, flexibility, and tactile feel of a hardware monitor controller with the complete transparency of software routing. It works as a zero-latency plugin or as a system-wide app, and can host an AU plugin on each output.
Oxford Dynamic EQ
Oxford Dynamic EQ delivers exactly the amount of processing you need, when you need it, with a quick setup. Its five bands of musical Type-3 EQ curves bring Sonnox’s signature transparency to single sources, instrument groups, or the 2-bus alike. Dynamic EQ also includes unique features such as the option to enable transient-detection-based processing, which is handy when working with drums and percussion.
Oxford EQ
Oxford EQ is a versatile, high-quality equalizer plugin featuring the EQ section from the acclaimed SONY OXF-R3 console. It is a 5-band parametric EQ with variable-slope HP/LP filters and four completely different-sounding EQ types:
- A clinical EQ like the SSL 4000 E series
- A tight cut type for removing problem frequencies
- A classic EQ resembling Neve and SSL G series curves
- Wide, gentle curves ideal for mastering
Oxford Limiter
Oxford Limiter is a peak limiter with attack, release, and a variable soft knee. Whether you want its signature transparency or a heavier, more creative effect, its advanced look-ahead processing and unique Enhance feature deliver the sample-value limiting and musical boost needed to reliably avoid clipping while increasing apparent loudness.
Oxford Reverb
Oxford Reverb is a multi-functional reverb plugin. It ships with 120 presets as standard and features flexible early reflections, a reverb tail, and a 5-band Oxford EQ section. From dry ambience and open reverberant spaces to classic hardware-inspired effects and settings, you can design your own spaces from scratch.
Oxford TransMod
Oxford TransMod is a plugin that corrects a track’s transients by strengthening or softening the attack. With two main controls, you can easily add punch, pulling transients forward in the mix or pushing them back to make the surrounding ambience clearer, all without the tonal coloring caused by compression.
Oxford Dynamics
Dynamics is a powerful all-in-one dynamics control plugin, combining six independent processes into a single plugin:
- Gate
- Expander
- Compressor
- Limiter
- 2-band side-chain EQ
- Warmth control
It features the dynamics section of the highly acclaimed SONY OXF-R3 console.
Oxford SuprEsser
Oxford SuprEsser is a de-esser plugin that easily reduces problem frequencies. Operating between 20 Hz and 20 kHz, it goes deeper than a standard de-esser, letting you listen and verify across the full audio spectrum before dialing out problem frequencies. It offers a simple mode for quick fixes and an advanced mode for greater functionality.
Oxford Drum Gate
Drum Gate is a plugin for accurate, transparent drum gating. With precise transient detection and intelligent drum-type matching, it easily separates the hits you want to keep from the ones you don’t. A decay curve that adapts to the velocity of each drum hit ensures consistent reduction even with dynamic performances.
Fraunhofer Pro-Codec
Fraunhofer Pro-Codec is a plugin that lets you audition and compare up to five audio codecs in real time. You can quickly focus on critical issues such as a codec’s impact on frequencies, audible artifacts, and codec-induced overload. You can optimize your mix for a specific format such as AAC or mp3 before encoding, and a manager application is provided for background batch processing.
Restore
Restore is a bundle of three corrective/repair plugins, including the following three:
Oxford DeBuzzer effectively removes buzz, hum, whine, and whistle. Using its display, you can isolate the fundamental frequency, with the top candidates always shown as feedback. Even if the fundamental wanders, the default auto-tracking mode follows it in real time.
Oxford DeClicker removes pops and clicks accurately and transparently. It has three independent sections for removing pops and clicks, each with threshold and sensitivity controls that define how many events are detected and removed. Its unique event graph displays the level and duration of detected pops and clicks in three separate, color-coded groups.
Oxford DeNoiser is a real-time noise-reduction plugin based on continuously analyzing the input signal to build a noise profile. It also offers a freeze mode for capturing a profile that contains only the target noise.
Vox Doubler
VoxDoubler is offered as two independent plugins focused on the vocal-doubling workflow. Widen generates two new mono voices and pans them to the left and right of the original vocal. Thicken generates a new stereo doubling voice and layers it over the original vocal.
Envolution
Envolution is a frequency-dependent envelope shaper, split into transient and sustain sections, that can dramatically change the sound envelope of instruments and audio. To select the frequencies being processed, use the Tilt mode for broader coverage or the more parametric Focus mode. You can add presence and a sense of distance to percussive content such as drums, piano, and guitar; boost sustain to swell ambience; or cut it for gating.
