Bevel EQ and Stoke Saturator cost nothing while the launch sale runs. Not a demo, not a trial, not a lite version: the same build paying customers get, with a license that never expires. Built and used in a working recording studio in Cleveland, Ohio.
The checkout opens at $0. Your license key arrives by email within a minute. No card, no account.

Stoke Saturator
One sound. Four knobs. Measured.
A saturator built around one deeply tuned analog-style voice and four knobs. Its weight, punch and loudness behaviour ship as measured contracts: each one is a test that fails the build the moment the number moves. No modes, no styles, nothing to choose.

How free works · Four steps
01
Take it
Press the button. The checkout opens at $0 and asks for an email address, which is where the license key goes.
02
Install it
Download the installer for Windows or macOS from the plugin's page or from Downloads. It installs VST3 and AU or AAX for your system. Rescan in your DAW if it does not appear on its own.
03
Paste the key
Open the plugin, click the license panel, paste the key. Online, that is the whole job. Offline machines use a license file against the machine code the plugin shows.
04
Keep the email
The key is the license. It never expires and covers 3 machines over its lifetime. An optional account shows keys, machines and downloads in one place.

The rest of the line

Every one has a free 3 day, full-function trial, and the bundles put the ones that belong together in one checkout.
