The even better news is that this freebie comes with a brand-new discount code, which means anyone who grabbed a free plugin during the Black Friday offer can now pick up another.
Use code HOLIDAYFREEBIE at checkout to claim your free plugin. Offer ends on December 31, 2025.
It’s hard to say there is a downside when we are talking about freebies from a premium developer, but I know many of you own some, most, or, in some cases, all of the offered plugins because they have been free during other promotions.
But I hope most of you can pick up a great plugin here, and for anyone who already owns all of them, well, there’s still more plugins to be had from promotions like the 12 Days of Soundtoys; happy days.
Here’s a reminder of the plugins on offer:
- 1176 Classic FET Compressor
- Century Tube Channel Strip
- Galaxy Tape Echo
- Oxide Tape Recorder
- PolyMAX Synth
- Pultec Passive EQ Collection
- Pure Plate Reverb
- Showtime ’64 Tube Amp
- Teletronix LA-2A Tube Compressor
- Verve Analog Machines Essentials
As I mentioned, all of these plugins have been available for free before, so considering which ones are free most often might be a good place to start.
During the Black Friday giveaway, I said my top picks were the Century Tube Channel Strip, Pultec Passive EQ Collection, Pure Plate Reverb, and the PolyMAX synth.
Given that all of these plugins are high-quality, but others may be available for free more often, I’ll stick with those picks.
The keyboard player in me just wants to say, take PolyMAX, if you don’t have it yet, but whatever you choose will be a solid addition to your collection.
UAD Native Plugins for macOS and Windows require UA Connect manager during installation, but you don’t have to keep it running during use. You don’t need a physical iLok USB, but you’ll need a free iLok account.
