Following the recent Orbit and Pulsar reverb and delay effects, Goeran Meyer has announced some new free audio plugins.
MYR Zenith features a complete mastering chain in one window. Twelve modules sit in the order a mastering engineer would build them: utility with mono bass, a mid/side EQ with cuts up to 96 dB per octave, resonance clean-up, harshness control, an opto leveler modeled on a T4 cell, an 8-band multiband for mid and side separately, low end shaping, bus glue, brilliance, saturation, a stereo imager, and a true-peak limiter with soft clip and dither. MYR Zenith
The loudness panel comes with LUFS integrated, LRA, true peak, PSR and PLR, with targets for Spotify, Apple, YouTube and Tidal.
Pick a target, play the loudest part of the track, press LEARN, and ZENITH sets the limiter so the target is met at -1 dBTP. A streaming preview lets you hear what each platform will turn the master down by, and MATCH level-matches the master to the mix so an A/B tells you about tone instead of loudness.
MYR Titan is a 24-band equalizer, and any of the bands can turn dynamic, so a band only moves when its own frequency range actually gets too loud. Slopes from 6 to 96 dB per octave, each band on stereo, left, right, mid or side, and three phase modes including a matched analogue curve that costs no latency at all. MYR Titan
Every frequency read-out also names the note and cents, and LINK — put TITAN on the kick and on the bass, and each instance shows the other track’s spectrum, marks where they collide, and can duck one only while the other plays.
Also new since October is MYR Prism, a vocal harmonizer with three voices and TD-PSOLA formant shifting. MYR Prism
The MYR series plugins are available in VST3 and AU formats for Windows and macOS, free of charge in a single installer.
2Rule has announced an update to its versatile audio plugin designed to enhance the sound of audio recordings. TugMultiEffect features delay, chorus, reverb, distortion, and more.
It has been three and a half years since the last TugMultiEffect update. Version 2.0 is the biggest change since the plugin came out: it is rebuilt around the graph, with five new effects, modulation, a sidechain input and a new look. It is a free update for everyone.
A word about the look. The first version was criticised for a GUI that seemed to come straight out of the 2000s – as if the GUI were what mattered most. People who build plugins for how they sound rather than how they look might say the same. Anyway, I changed a few things, and I hope you like it.
Changes in TugMultiEffect v2.0
Build your own graph: Drag effects onto the canvas and wire them however you like; split the signal, run effects side by side, bring it back together. Five new effects: Ring Mod, Resonator, Modal (plays chords, up to 4 voices), Ducker and Gate. 16 effects in all. Sidechain: Route a kick into the plugin and duck, gate or modulate anything in the graph with it. The Ducker and the Gate have a key filter, and Listen to hear what they hear. Modulation: 4 LFOs – including the wandering Drift and shapes you draw yourself – 4 macros, and an envelope that follows the sidechain. Drag a source onto a node and pick the knob. Cables you can shape: A level, mute and polarity switch on every cable, and Left, Right, Mid or Side splits. MIDI: The Resonator, Ring Mod and Modal follow the notes you play. Undo and redo, a preset browser with search and categories, and 14 new factory presets built in. A new look, light and dark, in a resizable window – and a built-in guide: click the plugin’s name. Fixes for various issues, among them projects that stayed silent until the plugin window was opened, crashes under automation, and a Chorus whose Delay knob did nothing.
The VST3 plugin for Windows, macOS and Linux is a “pay what you like” download, including free.

Play a chord. Hold it. Let the strings find each other. Synpathy is a string machine built around sympathetic resonance. The voices you hold share one field and feed into each other, the way real strings do on a soundboard. A held chord doesn’t sit still. It blooms a little, breathes, and settles slightly differently each time you play it.
ACID ATTACK is a MIDI pattern generator built for acid, techno, trance, melodic techno, progressive, rave, industrial and hard dance.
Despite its name, ACID ATTACK is not limited to traditional acid basslines. Use it to create hypnotic bass sequences, emotional trance hooks, melodic techno patterns, progressive motifs and driving lead melodies.
Hit the glowing smiley and instantly generate a fresh 16- or 32-step sequence. Choose a pattern style, shift the octave, shape the sound and drag the finished MIDI directly into your DAW. The generated MIDI can also be sent to any other synthesizer, giving you an instant starting point for completely different sounds and genres.
Powered by 20 carefully selected one-shots, ACID ATTACK can move from deep underground grooves to bright melodic sequences and aggressive peak-time energy. Push the filter, increase the resonance, add accent and glide, then drive the signal through distortion, delay and reverb.
Every generated pattern stays monophonic and musically controlled, with support for Minor, Dorian, Phrygian, Harmonic Minor, Minor Pentatonic, Blues and Diminished modes.

Whether you need a dirty acid groove, a hypnotic techno sequence, a melodic trance hook or a progressive lead, ACID ATTACK gets ideas moving in seconds.
All The Machines has introduced a dual-engine drum machine instrument for Windows and Mac (VST3, AU, CLAP and standalone).
Each of the six tracks (BD, SD, HH, PERC, TOM and CY) of UN/T-01 is a synthesized 808 voice or a sample player, and you can load your own samples.
The 808 voices are synthesized the way the original circuits work. Then I added the things the original doesn’t have.
The plugin comes with 48 presets, time-stretch on any sample from 25 to 400 percent, and a sequencer with up to 32 steps with Euclid. Each track can have its own length, so patterns drift apart and meet again.
Sonic Skunk has announced an update to its an open-source reverb plugin with sidechaining built in. Version 1.1 of DuckingSpace brings support for Mac, a redesigned interface, and more.
DuckingSpace pulls its own reverb down while your sound plays and lets it bloom in the gaps. Big space, clear mix, no sidechain routing.
Changes in DuckingSpace v1.1
Now on Mac: VST3 and AU, Apple Silicon and Intel (macOS 11 or newer). Completely redesigned interface, with zoom (100/125/150%). 13 factory presets, and save your own with the new preset bar. New HALL engine next to the original sound (now called CLASSIC). Modulation now adds a lush stereo chorus to the reverb. Diffusion works across the whole knob, from separate echoes to a smooth wash. Sensitivity control, so the ducking also reacts to quieter sounds. Input/Output knobs, and a Dry/Wet that keeps the volume steady.
Available in VST3 and AU formats for Windows and macOS, DuckingSpace is free to download.
A2D Sound has released an all-in-one processor that aims to replace a chain of saturation, compression, EQ, clipping, and limiting with a single phase-coherent engine.
Squeeze lets you pick a source type and character, play a few seconds of audio, and hit Learn. The plugin measures peak, RMS, mid and side energy, and high-frequency content, and builds its configuration from what it finds.
Saturation, dynamics, tone, transients and ceiling control, all configured from a single measurement of your source. No AI, no fancy tricks; it runs on an algorithm we wrote to work out what your sound needs.
Squeeze features
27 source types that set the starting point, moving crossover points and deciding where warmth sits, how fast the compressor moves, and whether stereo width is allowed to open. 3 calibrated characters: Subtle stays close to the source, Warm adds weight and color, and Aggressive pushes further. Gain Match, bringing the output peak back to the input peak so Squeeze can’t win an A/B just by coming out louder (matching on a LUFS meter is recommended for a strict comparison). Max Loudness, driving the signal harder underneath without moving any panel controls. Correlation-safe width processing that holds together when folded to mono. Individual module bypass, by double-clicking any knob, for hearing what Saturation, Density, Warmth, Air, Transients, and Width each contribute.
Squeeze for Windows and macOS (VST3/AU) is on sale for the launch price of $49 USD for a limited time (regular $99 USD). A 7-day free trial unlocks the full plugin with every feature.
Also available is Micro Squeeze, a free version of the plugin which comes with a limited set of features.
The knob drives a detail-preserving clipper into a brickwall limiter. Play the loudest part of your track and hit Learn: it listens for up to ten seconds, measures peak, RMS and loudness, and sets a starting point for your track. A live spectrogram shows, in red, where loudness was added, and Gain Match holds the output peak where the input peak was.
Tuğrul Akyüz has released an update for his polyphonic arpeggiator and sequencer plugin for Windows, macOS and Linux (VST3).
Version 2.6.0 of TugMidiSeq comes with with a redesigned interface and various improvements and fixes.
The notes of the pressed chords are automatically lined up from the lowest pitch to the highest pitch, creating musical polyphonic pattens according to the beat moments in the seq window. A circular note flow display for fun.
Changes in TugMidiSeq v2.6.0
Four pattern slots (A–D). Each lane switches when its own loop ends. Chord and strum lanes, in ms or synced to the tempo. Step conditions, ratchets and step pitch. 48 scales, including Messiaen modes, Japanese scales and makams. Forward / reverse / ping-pong / random per lane, plus mutate. Preset library with folders. Undo, keyboard shortcuts, and drag-to-DAW MIDI export.
TugMidiSeq is a “pay what you like” download, including free.
Riverflux Audio has recently released a collection of 12 analog-style effect plugins for Windows, macOS and Linux (VST3, AU and CLAP).
Relic aims to bring the sound of classic studio units.
Five compressors, five equalizers and two tape machines, with meters, needles and reels that move with your mix. Load one on a track, or fill a rack. Every unit keeps the faceplate, the controls and the character of the gear it’s inspired by. Classic hardware. Zero rack space.
Relic features
Five compressors: Optical, tube optical, VCA, FET and stereo vari-mu. From smooth levelling to hard-hitting limiting. Five equalizers: Preamp EQ, proportional-Q three-band, ten-band graphic, program EQ and mid-range EQ. Two tape machines: A multitrack deck and a mastering recorder, with four tape stocks, selectable speeds and reels that turn with your session. Real metering: VU needles driven by your signal, threshold lamps and gain-reduction meters. Studio workflow on every unit: A/B compare, copy and paste, Delta listening, external sidechain on the compressors, and 2x/4x/8x oversampling. 33 factory presets per plugin: starting points for vocals, drums, bass, guitars, keys, acoustic, mix bus and more.
Relic is a “pay what you like” download, including free.
KarmaStation has announced a free kick drum instrument that generates the kick from scratch through synthesis.
No samples, no layering, no scrolling through nine hundred one-shots hoping one of them sits right. You shape the sound with a handful of controls that each do exactly one thing, and you can see all of them at once.
KarmaKick features controls for the pitch drop (start, end and time), amp decay, drive, click, output level and a compressor, and 4 waveforms to choose from. The plugin comes with 6 factory presets to get you started.
Available for Windows and macOS in VST3 and AU plugin formats, and as standalone software with a built-in step sequencer, KarmaKick is a “pay what you like” download, including free.
The first release of the CA-72, a synthesizer plug-in (VST3 and CLAP) for macOS, Windows and Linux whose voice is modelled from the circuit of a 1970s analogue synthesizer: monophonic like the instrument, or one whole instrument per note with POLY.
Draw the movement. On our effects, and on your own plugins.
Sonescent Motion is a tempo-synced shaper. Draw a line and it moves your volume, a resonant filter, the stereo position and width, how hard the sound is driven, its pitch, or time itself: stutters, half speed, reverse and tape stops. The FX tab holds up to four of your own VST3 plugins, and the line decides how much of them you hear, so a reverb can arrive on beat four and leave again. The tabs across the top are the signal chain, in the order you drag them into, and there can be two of every effect. It all works on up to four frequency bands, locked to your DAW's grid or fired from your kick. Motion adds no latency of its own. Every feature is in the free version, because there is no other version.
