The Oxford Inflator is a unique process that can provide an increase in the apparent loudness of almost any program, without obvious loss of quality or audible reduction of dynamic range, yet avoiding damaging increases in the peak level of the signal. The Oxford Inflator process can also bring power, presence, and warmth to program material and even provide headroom overload margin above digital maximum with a subtlety and musical character reminiscent of tube systems. Add the Oxford Inflator to your plug-in arsenal and see what you've been missing!

Sonnox Oxford Inflator Native at a Glance:
  • Maximum loudness
  • Multi-purpose tool

Maximum loudness
No matter how limited, compressed and crushed your program may already be the Inflator will provide even more loudness, it will even add volume to a full-scale white noise signal or add musicality to previously clipped signals! The Oxford Inflator was developed in response to requests from mixing and mastering engineers who are required to compete on the basis of the overall apparent loudness of their final results.

Multi-purpose tool
Use the Oxford Inflator to produce louder mixes than you thought possible without overloads or compression pumping, or use it to add natural warmth and character to acoustic or jazz mixes. Use it on single instruments to add presence, softness and depth, or use it on percussion and drum tracks to produce amazing dynamic presence, tightness and volume.

Sonnox Oxford Inflator Native Features:
  • RTAS, AU, and VST operation
  • Increases the loudness of almost any program material.
  • Creates warmth, character and dynamic excitement, similar to that of analog systems.
  • Provides virtual headroom above digital maximum to allow percussive peaks to pass without causing signal overload.
  • Creates artistic effects ranging from subtle tube-like harmonic characteristics for warmth, presence and 'in your face' fatness, to outright saturation distortion modelling.
  • Features two modes of operation - direct and band split - for maximum flexibility and artistic creativity. These two modes also ensure optimal DSP usage.

Add magic to your mixes with Sonnox's Oxford Inflator Native!

Does what it says

by RD from tampa, florida

A nice plug...It gives you a nice volume-thickness push without the edge or you can push it hard and get an edge. I'd recommend it.

Sweetwater Advice

Brad Every
I've found this plug-in breathes new life into any mix. The way it enhances the mix and brings the overall level up without distortion can only be described as magic. I now use it on every mixdown!
Carson McClain
This is the plug-in that will make your tracks pound, bump and thump. I get many calls from Pro Tools users asking me, "How do I make my drum tracks punch through? How do I make my tracks loud like the CD I am listening to now?" The Oxford Inflator is the plug-in for just that. The inflator is a tube-emulated dynamics processor that adds warmth to your mastered tracks and an overall louder sound that will seem thicker to your ears and of course to the stereo in your car. You can use this on instrument tracks, audio tracks, and of course your master bus. We can also have this plug-in delivered to you electronically so you dont have to wait for it.

The product works pretty good after the hassle with getting the license to install with the i lock I did get through the process successfully. Pretty easy to learn the curve. Noticeable difference ... read more [+]is obvious. It was worth the money for me anyway. While it gives me back my desk real estate space. close [-]

Our Customers Say...

When it came time to start from scratch with the studio, I had a lot of questions. The Sales Engineers I've worked with are really friendly and patient, and the guidance they provided was invaluable; they basically helped build the studio.
