Sony Oxford EQ Protools HD
Sony Oxford Equalizer Plug-in for Pro Tools TDM Systems

The Sony Oxford EQ Protools HD plug-in is based on the OXF-R3 EQ section and provides a truly professional EQ processor for the Pro Tools user.
Sony Oxford EQ Protools HD is a fully functional 5-band application with selectable shelf settings on LF and HF sections. Additionally, separate variable slope low pass and high pass filters are provided. Sony Oxford EQ Protools HD also features 4 different selectable EQ types that cover most of the EQ styles currently popular amongst professional users, including some legacy styles, which are renowned for their artistic capability. The use of novel coefficient generation and intelligent processing design provides unparalleled performance that surpasses analog EQ in both sound quality and artistic

• 5 Band parametric EQ with HF and LF selectable to shelf
• Separate HF and LF filters with variable slope
• 4 selectable EQ types (gain/Q dependency)
• Fully de-cramped HF response
• Control coefficients calculated on the fly
• Extremely low noise and distortion

Sony Oxford EQ Protools HD Specifications:

• LF filter section - Gain: 6dB/Oct steps, Frequency: 20Hz-500Hz, Q/Slope: 0-36dB/Oct
• LF peak/shelf section - Gain: +/-20dB, Frequency: 20Hz-400Hz, Q/Slope: 0.5-16, Overshoot: 0-50%
  (Q adjust in shelf)
