Sonnox has released AAX DSP and AAX Native versions of its Oxford EQ and Inflator plug-ins.

In making the announcement, Sonnox Managing Director Rod Densham remarked, "We're delighted to be supporting the next generation of Pro Tools users with AAX and are very optimistic about the Pro Tools|HDX platform. The new AAX format will undoubtedly become an established plug-in standard, just as TDM has been. The Sonnox development team has doubled in size in recent months, and is working hard to port all our remaining plug-ins to AAX as soon as possible."

Avid's AAX (Avid Audio eXtension) plug-in format comes in two versions: AAX DSP plug-ins compatible exclusively with Pro Tools|HDX (TDM is not supported in Pro Tools|HDX); and AAX Native plug-ins, compatible with any system running Pro Tools/Pro Tools HD 10 software.

"Sonnox consistently sets the pace for superior-sounding, innovative processing for Pro Tools, and we are thrilled to see their portfolio coming to AAX," comments Ed Gray, Director, Partnering Programs at Avid. "Sonnox plug-ins running on a Pro Tools|HDX system will provide a winning combination for the next generation of audio professionals. We can't wait to see what Sonnox brings to our users next."
