The $599 bundle deal at Don'tCrack is pretty good but they just aren't special enough any longer to justify the full price. I expect it'll be another $15 per plugin for the 64bit upgrade. UAD on the other hand, is stronger than ever.I own three of the Sonnox poco plugins, EQ, Dynamics & Inflator, and they want £165/$260 to crossgrade them to native. They look more and more like yesterdays news, and could possibly be gone 5 years from now.
#Best sonnox oxford plugins 64 Bit#
However, one should keep in mind that Sonnox did charge their customers for the 64 bit upgrade, and have not come out with any new significant plugs in a long time. I'm pretty sure that I will be be picking up a Sonnox bundle during the group buy, but that's mainly because I'm a plugin whore.Ĭambridge is UAD's answer to the Oxford, and I find the Oxford slightly better sounding, except that the cambridge has better filters. If you have an iLok, Sonnox does offer 2-week demos of all of the plugins. If you already have the Cambridge or Precision Maximizer, I don't think you would gain much by getting the Sonnox plugins. Now I would honestly have to say that there are cheaper and equally good alternatives to just about all of the Sonnox plugins. The Oxford EQ is really old, so old that I think the Cambridge was pretty much modeled directly in response to it.The plugins were state-of-the-art when they were released almost 7 years ago.

Recently there have been other plugins released that do similar like the Sausage Fattener for a lot less money. 've used the Inflator before and it does some really nice things to tracks. Here's a link in case anybody's interested: Any other direct plug-to-plug comparisons are welcome as well. I found a few scattered mentions of the Sonnox plugs, but now that dontcrack is running a Sonnox group buy, I'm particularly interested in any opinions directly comparing Cambridge to the Oxford EQ, and Precision Maximizer to the Inflator.
