Sonnox Oxford Plugins: Sonnox Oxford evolved out of a group of dedicated audio professionals who first worked together in the early 1980s. Having spent many years designing analogue and digital consoles for a leading British manufacturer, five engineers started a new Company in 1988 which was called Oxford Digital. Over the subsequent years the team slowly expanded, until in 1993 it became Sony Oxford.
One of Sony Oxford's major product designs was the OXF-R3 Digital Mixing Console, or 'Oxford Console' as it's often called. This huge undertaking, a no compromise high end digital audio system, was conceived by Oxford Digital in the late 1980s and productised for release by Sony in the mid 1990s. Virtually everything, including audio DSP chips and software design tools were designed at Oxford since, at that time, it was impossible to buy DSP technology with enough power.
As times and techniques moved on, and technology became cheaper with increasing power, we began to focus on how we could leverage the Oxford technologies into audio workstations. We became a development partner with DigiDesign and began work in order to create the Oxford EQ for Pro Tools. At the same time, we started work on the infrastructure for our e-commerce scheme which would be instrumental for sales and registration of our new software products ...

DUY was established in 1972 as a manufacturer of audio hardware.
From 1972 to 1987 DUY designed and manufactured music synthesizers, drum
machines, audio compressors, limiters, mixing consoles, and samplers.
Two of DUY´s most outstanding developments were the world´s
first digital drum machine and one of the very first
polyphonic synthesizers (see photo).
The ALFA1024 was a hybrid synthesiser equipped
with 32 digital oscillators, 8 voices analog
processing and a 1024 notes sequencer.
The system was controlled by an on-board
Rockwell 6502 CPU with 32K of RAM. It was 1983.
IN 1986 DUY created its first recording studio.
Initially conceived for the produccion of music , it
attracted the advertising agencies and film production
companies. Advertising was a flourishing business at that
time in Barcelona ..;
All those early developments and experience have evolved into the current line of DUY´s software products, which are currently being used by producers like David Reitzas, Mutt Lange, Chris Porter, Jean-Michel Jarre, Mike Hedges, Chris Porter or Spike Stent, who record artists like Celine Dion, Madonna, The Corrs, U2, Frank Sinatra, Barbra Streisand, Robbie Williams, Texas, George Michael, and a very long list continues.

Waves began in October 1992 with the introduction of the first audio plug-in, the Q10 Paragraphic equalizer. The Q10 broke new ground in three major areas. First, it was the debut of the audio signal processor plug-in, a tool commonly used today. Second, its graphic user interface gave users unprecedented control and eliminated the requirement for a DSP engineering background since it automated the filter coefficient calculations. Finally, the revolutionary Q10 offered sound quality equal to or better than many of its hardware counterparts ...
