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!

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.
