The Oxford Dynamic EQ Black Friday deal is 75% off, bringing this Sonnox dynamic EQ plugin to $67 until Dec 17, 2026.
It is a five-band dynamic EQ that only processes when a frequency calls for it. That makes it a way to tame boomy or harsh spots without the permanent cuts of a static EQ and without drawing in automation.
Sonnox pitches it at a few familiar problems. A static EQ can compromise the original recording, automation eats time and can sound unnatural, and a multiband compressor can leave you scratching your head.
The Dynamic EQ applies just the processing needed, when it is needed, and the maker says it takes little time to set up.
Sonnox says the bands blend smoothly, avoiding the static phase shift and low-end artefacts it ties to multiband dynamics processors, and every band can analyse or act on mono, stereo, mid or side signals. It engages the effect on transients, which Sonnox points to for drums and percussion.
The maker also says the GUI is clear and informative, built to simplify the workflow that multiband dynamic plugins usually bring with them.
On macOS you need macOS 10.12 or later, 64-bit only, with Intel and M1 Apple Silicon supported. Formats are AAX Native, AU and VST3.
On Windows you need Windows 10 or later, with AAX Native and VST3 formats.
It runs in Pro Tools 11 or above, or in any desktop host that supports AU (Mac) or VST3 plugins.
Each licence in the Toolbox range comes with 2 activations. You need an iLok account, and each activation authorises the plugin on one machine, on an iLok2 or iLok3 device with the latest drivers, or on iLok Cloud, which needs an active internet connection.
Yes. The Oxford Dynamic EQ Black Friday deal takes 75% off this Sonnox EQ plugin, so it costs $67 until Dec 17, 2026.
On macOS it ships as AAX Native, AU and VST3, and on Windows as AAX Native and VST3. It runs in Pro Tools 11 or above, or any desktop host that supports AU or VST3 plugins.
It is an alternative way to engage the effect. Instead of a level threshold, a band can trigger on onsets (transients). Sonnox calls it unique and says it suits drums and percussion, where precise transient processing matters.
According to Sonnox, the five Type-3 bands blend into one another smoothly, avoiding the fixed phase shift and bass-region glitches that tend to come with multiband compressors. Each band can detect from mono, stereo, mid or side, with internal or external side chain.
