The Oxford Limiter Black Friday deal takes 75% off this Sonnox limiter plugin, which puts it at $65 until Dec 17, 2026.
The Oxford Limiter is a peak limiter for the last stage of a master. The maker says it is built to deliver maximum loudness while keeping the detail and energy of the mix intact.
Sonnox's pitch is that kicks and snares stay punchy and defined as you push harder. The point is to get loud without crushing the dynamics you spent the session building.
It is a peak limiter with attack, release and a variable soft knee. Those three controls shape how the limiter grabs and lets go of the signal.
Alongside the limiting sits the Enhance section. The maker says it raises the perceived loudness of a track so it holds up on streaming, radio and in the club, without dulling the sound.
The Recon meter and Auto Comp work to the ITU-R BS.1770-4 true peak measurement standard. The noise shaping modes are meant for highly dynamic program material, and you can audition the dither before you apply it.
The plugin is fully backwards compatible with previous plugin versions.
On macOS the plugin runs as AAX Native, AU and VST3. It needs macOS 10.13 High Sierra or later, 64-bit only, and supports both Intel and M1 Apple Silicon.
On Windows it runs as AAX Native and VST3. It needs Windows 10 or later.
Supported hosts are Pro Tools 11 or above, or any desktop application that loads AU (Mac) or VST3 plugins.
Sonnox's Toolbox range gives you 2 activations per licence. Each activation authorises the plugin on one machine or iLok device, and you need an iLok account. iLok2 or iLok3 hardware needs the latest drivers, and iLok Cloud needs an active internet connection.
The Oxford Limiter also ships in several Sonnox bundles: Broadcast Post, Elite, Enhance and Mastering.
