Key Features

Explore the diversity of Oxford EQ's 4 Types.

Type 1 - The Workhorse

A versatile, SSL E-style EQ, Type 1 provides smooth, transparent results with minimal effort, making it the ‘go-to’ for everyday mixing needs where balance and clarity are essential.

Type 2 - The Surgeon

Designed for more remedial work, this mode offers asymmetrical cut and boost curves, making it highly effective for resonance control and corrective EQing. It excels in drums, percussion, and other transient-heavy instruments.

Type 3 - The Sculptor

Based on classic console EQs like the Neve and SSL G series, Type 3 provides softer, musical curves perfect for tonal shaping on vocals, instruments, or entire mixes.

Type 4 - The Polisher

The go-to choice for mastering, Type 4 delivers smooth, gentle curves that help blend and balance entire tracks, giving them a cohesive, polished finish.
