Inflate Your Mix!

The Sonnox Oxford Inflator Native provides an increase in the apparent loudness of your tracks without obvious loss of quality or reduction of dynamic range. It also avoids damaging increases in the peak level of the signal. Oxford Inflator's processing can also bring power, presence, and warmth to your tracks while providing additional headroom complete with the subtlety and sound of famed tube systems. It's a favorite among mixers at Sweetwater for its ability to make just about any source sound more vibrant. Add the Sonnox Oxford Inflator Native to your plug-in arsenal, and see what you've been missing!

Note: This product requires that you have an iLok account for authorization, although it does not require a physical iLok key. Please contact your Sweetwater Sales Engineer if you have questions.

Maximum loudness

No matter how limited, compressed, and crushed your program may already be, the Sonnox Oxford Inflator Native 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 Native 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.

Multipurpose tool

Use the Sonnox Oxford Inflator Native 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 Features:

  • 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, tubelike harmonic characteristics for warmth, presence, and "in your face" fatness to outright saturation distortion modeling
  • 2 modes of operation (direct and band split) for maximum flexibility and artistic creativity — 2 modes also ensure optimal DSP usage

Reviews

Great Plugin
I had read about it and was curious. There was a sale. It pumps things up well. I use a subtle approach. I am happy with my purchase.
Saves The Day
It's the final touch on a mix. This plugin allows you leave that safe and necessary headroom then delivers the depth and volume you want for your mix to be competitively loud. Basically magic.

A Must Have in the FX Chain
I love this plugin so much. It is the best. The updated version has info about the parameters in real-time so in case I forget what something does, I can briefly be reminded. The quality is top notch. The plugin is stable which is paramount for us. I can not imagine not having this in my workflow.

What Do Our In-house Gear Experts Think?
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.

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!
Ben Robinson
The Sonnox Oxford Inflator makes you feel like a mastering engineer. Only four sliders, but they make such a big difference! It's the closest thing I've found to a "magic button" for a mix.
