I never had a need to look at the manual as it is a straightforward plug-in, so I can't speak to how useful it is or not. I also had no compatibility issues at all. It was as straight forward as installing any plug-in that I have. I had no trouble installing the Sonnox Oxford Inflator on my machine. This is one thing that can help make your demo tracks sound closer to professional. The Inflator is also very useful for increases the 'perceived' loudness of a music track during mastering while still maintaining the peak amplitude. There are many companies that have 'limiters', 'compressors', 'transient designers', 'reverbs', etc. I consider this particular plug-in to be my favorite from Sonnox because it is very unique. I use this plug-in on every session I mix, and I would hate to try to mix without it. I usually leave the 'Curve' setting at 0.0, unless a track is really dull and I want to add some high-frequency emphasis. I rarely use the 'Effect' at 100%, usually I settle somewhere between 50% - 75%. For most plug-ins, I might insert them on a track and decide whether or not it sounds better. This may be the only plug-in I have ever used that always sounds good. Use it on individual instruments or on a mix bus and it will make a difference. This plug-in is simple - it makes your tracks sound better. There must be some psychoacoustic phenomenon that this is based on. To me, it makes audio sound closer or 'in-your-face'. My understanding is that the 'effect' increases the presence of harmonics in the signal. I simply think it makes audio sound better. Some people say that it adds a 'magic' to their audio. The effect is very dramatic, and very pleasing to the ears. It is hard to precisely describe what this plug-in does. In reality, all you have to do it move the 'Effect' slider up until your music sounds better. If you can't figure it out in the first 30 seconds of trying the plug-in out, you can watch videos that show you what to do. The controls of this plug-in are as basic as any plug-in. I purchased the Sonnox Enhance bundle and received the Inflator. This plug-in can be purchased independently or as part of several bundles from Sonnox. It can be downloaded off the Sonnox website for installation, and authorized using an iLok. The Sonnox Oxford Inflator is a software plug-in to be used inside a DAW.
