Vicious Antelope just made its Vicious Saws synth (normally $28) available for free download for a limited time via an exclusive Audio Plugin Deals offer.

Kern is now offering their plugin Check, a spectral mono-compatibility analyzer for free. It works on Windows and macOS and comes in VST3 and AU formats. This plugin might be a lifesaver if your mix tends to collapse on mono systems! While “spectral mono-compatibility analysis” certainly is a mouthful, it’s no less important for a mix that translates well. Check provides you with detailed visual feedback of the stereo information in your track or mix in real-time. The 40 individual bands follow a correlation curve that immediately tells you what’s in the safezone and what’s de-correlated (and anything in-between). It’s…

To download the plugin, you’ll be asked to submit your email address and join the Sonicora Audio mailing list, but you can unsubscribe at any time. If you’re on Windows and looking for a free delay…

When Digital Sound Had Teeth Before soft synths. Before endless presets. Before “vintage mode” buttons. There was wavetable synthesis — cold, metallic, alive. And at the center of that story sits the Waldorf Microwave and its bright-orange descendant, the Microwave XT. These weren’t polite synths. They didn’t blend in. They cut through. Quick Summary 👉 The Waldorf Microwave and Microwave XT are classic wavetable synthesizers descended from the legendary PPG Wave. They combine digital oscillators with analog-style filtering to create evolving, aggressive, and expressive sounds. Check out the plugin VST version of the Waldoef Microwave here.
