Sonnox Black Friday 2026: Oxford EQ, Inflator and Bundle Prices (Sale Runs to December 17)
Black Friday 2026 · Sonnox
Sonnox is the rare brand where the Black Friday price is already here. Since October 28 most Oxford plugins have been 74 to 75% off at Plugin Boutique and the bundles up to 87% off, and the sale runs until December 17. That's the same depth as last year's Black Friday sale. Here's every price, what's in each bundle, and the one I'd pick.
Sonnox at Plugin Boutique now
UP TO 87% OFF
most single plugins 74-75% off · until Dec 17, 2026
Black Friday 2026 is Friday, November 27, and Cyber Monday is November 30. The Sonnox sale ends on December 17, so these prices cover Black Friday, Cyber Monday and the two weeks after.
Sonnox matters more in my Vocal Chain eBible than you might guess. Oxford EQ is the paid EQ I suggest in the alternative versions of 48 of the 88 chains, Oxford SuprEsser is the de-esser in 27, and Killer Mike's chain runs Oxford Dynamics straight after bx_console.

Last year vs this year
Plugin Boutique's 2025 Black Friday guide lists two Sonnox deals: an exclusive early-access price of 85% off the Enhance and Essential bundles, which ended on November 2, and a Black Friday sale with most plugins 74 or 75% off until December 1. This year the single plugins are already at that level, and the sale runs two weeks longer. The Essential and Enhance bundles are 80% off right now, a little less than last year's early-access price: 85% off would have been about $116 for Essential and $65 for Enhance, against $150 and $83 today.
The Sonnox plugins I'd buy first
1. Sonnox Oxford EQ — the EQ in 48 of my eBible chains
Four EQ types in one plugin, from a clinical E-series style to wide, gentle curves for mastering, built on the EQ section of Sony's OXF-R3 console. It's the paid EQ I suggest in 48 of the 88 chains.

2. Sonnox Oxford SuprEsser — the de-esser
It targets sibilance by frequency and only reacts when an S pokes out, so the vocal keeps its air. It's the de-esser in 27 of the chains' alternative versions.

3. Sonnox Oxford Inflator — loudness and density
Adds perceived loudness, presence and warmth without obvious compression, on a vocal bus or a whole mix. At $39 it's one of the cheapest ways into Sonnox.

4. Sonnox Oxford Dynamics — the console dynamics
Gate, expander, compressor, limiter and a two-band side-chain EQ from the OXF-R3 console in one plugin, with a warmth control for tube-like saturation. Killer Mike's vocal chain in my eBible uses it.

5. Sonnox Claro — a modern EQ for $33
Three views from simple tone-shaping to precise surgery, with tools that help you find mud and harshness. A good second EQ next to Oxford EQ.
Plugin Boutique, Oct 30: $33 $134 · sale ends Dec 17 · See today's price →
6. Sonnox Voca — vocal compression made simple
A compressor built only for vocals, with fewer controls to fight. $29 through December 17.

| Vocal Production Bundle | $56 | $290 | $72 | Oxford Inflator and Claro |
| Producer Power Bundle | $64 | $420 | $104 | Oxford Inflator and Oxford Limiter |
My take: for vocals, Elite is the sweet spot at $200. Oxford EQ, SuprEsser, Dynamics and Inflator are all in it, and its seven plugins would cost $416 one by one. Core Studio Collection costs $133 more and adds the vocal tools (Claro, Voca and VoxDoubler) plus Dynamic EQ, Envolution and Drum Gate. If you only want to try Sonnox, the Vocal Production Bundle gets you Inflator and Claro for $56.

Buy now or wait?
Buy when you need it. The single plugins are already at last year's Black Friday discount and the sale runs until December 17, so there's no deadline pressure on November 27. The only reason to wait is a deeper bundle deal like last year's 85% off Essential and Enhance, which came as an early-access offer and ended on November 2. I'll update this page during Black Friday week.
