Sonnox has released the Windows VST version of its Oxford SuprEsser plug-in.

The Oxford SuprEsser is both a very highly-featured professional De-Esser and a Dynamic EQ. There is a simple mode for quick fixes, but also an advanced mode for increased functionality and fine-tuning. The combination of an intuitive FFT display and three listen modes enables the user to easily see and hear exactly where the problem frequencies are, allowing the rapid reduction or removal of the offending audio. As well as being able to trigger the full band compression, only the offending frequencies can be carefully carved out. Since the SuprEsser can operate at all frequencies, 'plosives' and other annoyances can also be removed effortlessly, making it more than a simple De-Esser. Additional features include Automatic Level Tracking, Linear Phase Filtering and a Wet/Dry blend control for final balancing.

Features:

• Highly featured professional De-Esser.
• Linear Phase Dynamic EQ.
• Transparently controls aggressive frequencies.
• Automatic Level Tracking follows energy levels (no need to automate threshold).
• Large intuitive graphic display makes finding frequencies very easy.
• Full Spectrum Operation (20Hz -20KHz).
• Three different 'Listen' modes.
• Very easy to use.
• Advanced Mode for ultimate control of the Dynamic EQ.
• Many creative as well as corrective uses.
• Presets giving good starting points.

Priced at £180 Oxford SuprEsser is available now for Windows in VST format and Mac OS X in VST, AU and RTAS formats. A 15-day demo version is available.
