2B Played Music offers the 2B Shaped Filter (14.99 EUR value) plugin as a FREE download for a limited time only. The offer expires in less than 24 hours. UPDATE: This offer has expired!
2B Shaped Filter is a multi-mode filter effect with modulation capabilities, somewhat similar to the TAL-Filter-3 (freeware) plugin we covered recently.
It offers four different filter types (Low Pass, High Pass, Band Pass, and Band Reject), each with two different slope variants.
The filter cutoff can be modulated internally via a freely editable LFO. The LFO module comes with a selection of standard curve shapes (sine, saw, etc.), but the user can freely customize the modulation curve using the onboard spline editor. You can build the modulation shapes from scratch or edit the ones that are included with the plugin.
Filter modulation is not the only thing you can do with 2B Shaped Filter. The plugin also lets you automate the volume, a technique that works quite well for emulating the “pumping” sound of side-chain compression.
The effect is available in VST and AU plugin formats for compatible digital audio workstations on Windows and macOS. Only 64-bit plugin hosts are supported.
Here’s a bit more info about the plugin:
2B Shaped Filter is a powerful audio effect filter that reacts to the shapes you create with the advanced spline editor. 2B Shaped Filter is derived from its big brother 2B Shaped, based on customer demand.
To download 2B Shaped Filter for free, add the plugin to your shopping cart and apply the coupon code 2BFREE at checkout. I tested the code a few moments ago, and it’s still working.
On a related note, 2B Played Music offers a 60% OFF deal on two other plugins: 2B Distorted and 2B Shaped. Use the coupon code 60OFF for that deal.

Neytcev
onWe own four of all 2B plugins, but sadly this one
is not backward compatible to run on OSX 10.10 …
Numanoid
onIs it backward compatible to run Windows XP ?
Michael Jackson
onIt’s only 64 bit. Maybe on a 64 bit XP version. I am on Windows 7 x64 with no plans to upgrade and developers are being to drop support for my OS.

Hope it helps
Tomislav Zlatic
onThanks for the tip! Looking cool, but I think this is for Computer Music customers only. I’ll need to check that. Do you have any additional info on this? Thanks again for the share.

onHi, im not a cm costumer and I still got the license c:
You just submit the form and a email will arrive with your license code, then you just register the code and that is it
Numanoid

If it’s not legit please do not share this comment.
Tomislav Zlatic
onI believe that the offer is legit, but only for Computer Music customers.
Aris
onSo we can’t use it. Too bad. :(
Georg
onHi Aris,
you absolutely can use it – just buy a digital issue here:
https://pocketmags.com/computer-music-magazine/issues
May 2021 has Carve EQ and December 2020 has Slice EQ if you want to check it out – in my eyes Slice EQ is a worthy contender against Fabfilter Pro-Q for someone like me, who currently can’t afford Fabfilter stuff ;-).
One caveat: I don’t know if there were limited license keys available, they might be already gone. But for a few bucks it’s worth a shot.
Aris
onThank you Georg! I’ll definitely check it out.
Michal Ochedowski
onDoes anyone here have experience in buying older Computer Music magazines? I’m interested in the December 2020 issue with Kilohearts Slice EQ, but not sure it’s still valid.
Georg
onHi Michal,
I bought that exact issue back in February and my code for Slice EQ worked. I’ll say it’s worth a shot.
Michal Ochedowski
onGEORG, that’s good to know. Thank you.
Georg
onMy pleasure!
A145
onOh no, I already submit my email and got the code but not redeem it yet, should I ignore it? I feel bad now
Tomislav Zlatic
onDon’t feel bad! If you can, grab the online copy of CM and you’re good to go. You’ll also get a bunch of other free plugins with their CM Studio collection.
Neytcev
onand? So what …
Numanoid
onIt is very important too stay legit, and support developers.
A145
onAlright, I’ll ignore the code.

onThis filter plug-in is really high quality from what I can hear applied to a strumming acoustic guitar 👍
