Sonnox's Broadcast Plugin Bundle for HDX systems delivers the broadcast-specific processing chain that defined the company's reputation, offloaded to dedicated DSP hardware to preserve CPU resources on your host machine. The bundle comprises four essential tools: Oxford EQ, SuprEsser, Oxford Dynamics, and Inflator plus Limiter, each engineered with the precision demanded by professional broadcast workflows.
The Oxford EQ provides transparent, musical equalization with enough surgical capability to address problematic frequencies in live feeds or field recordings without introducing phase artifacts. SuprEsser tackles sibilance and harshness with a natural de-esser algorithm that preserves intelligibility while maintaining spectral balance. Oxford Dynamics functions as the centerpiece, offering six independent processes including gate, expander, compressor, and limiter configurations that can handle everything from subtle vocal control to aggressive sidechain pumping effects. The inclusion of three compressor types - Normal, Classic, and Linear - provides options for different source material and aesthetic preferences.
What distinguishes this bundle is its lineage from the Sony OXF-R3 console, which informs the sonic character throughout: transparent enough for critical broadcast work yet capable of adding warmth and presence when needed. The Inflator contributes harmonic saturation that can punch up mix bus compression without obvious coloration.
This HDX version is specifically architected for broadcast engineers and post-production professionals running Avid systems who require both CPU efficiency and reliable, predictable processing. It represents a mature, battle-tested approach to broadcast loudness management and spectral control rather than an experimental or trendy alternative.
