Smooth Dynamics
Great purchase for me good for smoothing out vocals. I used it on audience recordings and it worked wonders.

Everything i need on the fly
Works great on my Apollo solo Usb and i prefer this EQ because it is so simple, easy adjustable and has enough bands for me-

No external sidechain function since 14 Aug, 2017 ???
Here is a quote from Sonnox website from 14 Aug, 2017:
"If you've enjoyed using the Oxford Dynamic EQ for Native and are considering purchasing it for UAD, it's important to note that the UAD version of the Oxford Dynamic EQ does not include external sidechain support."
Why is there no info about this issue on the product page here?
Why is there no progress with it still?
I just bought it and got very disappointed, external sidechain is crucial for my work.

Smooth Operator
I have multiple Dynamic Eq plug-ins as my “go to” and never needed, nor looked for adding another one to my tools. I was recently working on a very challenging mix. Non of my dynamic eq plugins could fix it to a satisfactory result. As a last resort I downloaded the “UA Sonnox Oxford Dynamic Eq” for a trial and to my surprise I was able to resolve it so quick with an amazing smooth sounding finish. I just had to purchase it. It’s now my only “go to” dynamic eq plugin.

dynamic
I love the smoothness in the frequencies, however, i do not like the functionality of the knobs.. comparison to Fab, I prefer Sonnox, but with Fab's knobs..

Great EQ - would also love to see side-chain support
This EQ in its own right is one of the ** most elegant sounding ** out there. It's super smooth and clean, and doesn't cause obvious phase damage. Add the dynamic bands, and it's a truly powerful tool. I already own the native Sonnox verion, but with coupons and the holiday deal, the price was too stupid good to pass up having this on the UAD platform, to save on my CPU when needed. Some projects get so bogged down, it was worth it to me to have the UAD version as an option.
The sound is worth 5 starts, but I only ding it one star for the often repeated complaint of lack of side-chain support. I'm sure it's some under-the-hood technical limitation on the UAD platform they're trying to work out. I most commonly use that to duck say 70Hz out of a bass guitar, triggered by the kick drum, and I know those EDM folks love to do that ducking thing on their synths. Either way, it'd be rad if they can sort that out in a future update. I'm sure they're working on it! ...Right guys??
I, like a lot of folks use FabFilter's Pro-Q3 all day long for how fast and easy it is, and light on the CPU. And their super simple dynamic implementation is great - for being fast and easy. But when you need more control over the envelope of a dynamic band, or if you just want a more elegant *sounding* EQ, the Oxford Dynamic EQ does level up on Pro-Q3 in my opinion and is worth a serious look. I'd say the same for Sonnox plugs in general. Quality stuff!
Rock on.

Amazing
If you are looking for dynamic sound. This is one of the best Dynamic EQ plugins I ever used. You name it, use it on any sound and it does the job. Personally love it. Specially on my master channel. Thank you again UAD for another amazing plugin!!

The best UAD investment I’ve made so far
I have picked up several plugins so far, they are all pretty great, interesting and flavourful. Nothing has been more useful then this plugin, tracking through it has solved so many issues, using it to clean up room resonances without loosing anything from the performance.
It’s a wonderful powerful tool.

Vocal Tracking Chain Complete!
Bought this based on a few UAD user reviews and glad I did. I'm using for tracking vocals just to dynamically tame the lows and highs. I find being able to visually see it work while tracking has been a confidence game changer for me.

Sidechain support.
Great sounding Equalizer, I do however think Uad need to put the sidechain option like the Native version asap. its such a shame it doesnt have this option. The Native version is pretty CPU hungry but with AMD coming in with insane processing power for affordable prices I won’t be surprised if products like this gets absolute when not on par with the native version. There simply is no reason to buy this if you can get the full option version with side chain and resizable plugin window. Never the less great plugin from sonnox.
A. Cajide
Sidechain?
Come on where is the native sidechaining? Urgh I’m so disappointed. Please include it.

comp. eq. If these two things don't solve it...?
It works smoothly without being rough, so you can work while maintaining the original track tone.
When the desired thing is not made well by using comp or eq
Using Oxford Dynamic EQ, how is this?
E. Koch
perfect
i a have VST Dyn-EQ for sidechain work in my DAW...this one i wanted for real time tracking through my Apollo Twin, and it's perfect for that, ( for De-Essing, and as a dynamic gain stage )....
what i was getting at, with the Ducking Compressor Idea, is; i don't want coloration in ducking side-chain compression...so the Obvious Solution, for ducking, is a Purely Digital Side Chain Ducking Compressor...
just Side-Chain Source Routing, With 3 Knobs < and that's it....the 3 knobs are Freq, Q, and Level, ( just like one band of a fully parametric )...so anyway; the side-chain frequencies then would be simply subtracted from the subject, there by doing the ducking by carving their own custom frequency hole into the subject material..
maybe that idea would be best implemented as a LUNA plugin, or part of the LUNA console...
i can build something like that, for myself, in reaktor; just haven't gotten around to it yet..
