ToneBoosters releases 23 legacy VST plugins with 64-bit support for FREE download.
ToneBoosters has bundled 23 Legacy plugins for macOS and Windows into a single file, making the download and install a bit more straightforward. The plugins don’t require registration either.
The included TrackEssentials and BusTools (v3) plugins have been around for over a decade and are no longer being sold. The transition from paid products to freeware is, of course, great news for us.
At a glance, ToneBoosters plugins can be a little deceptive. They typically employ a simple, no-fuss interface, which is great. But they also throw in some unexpected features at times, which is even better.
For example, TonBoosters Equalizer is a pretty straightforward EQ. But, it offers some pretty cool features like various Channel Modes (All, Mid, Sides, Left, Right). It provides multiple Filter Types and Spectrum Analyzer Modes, including L+R Sum, L/R Pan, and S/M Width.
That kind of more than meets the eye quality is quite common across the board for ToneBoosters plugins.
Some other interesting additions to this free collection are Ferox, Module, and Voice Pitcher.
Ferox is a simple tape simulation designed to add a bit of the good old days to your track.
Module is a multi-fx plugin, offering various feedback and modulation effects, including panning, delay, filters, and sound-field rotation.
Voice Pitcher lets you alter the pitch of vocals, both dialogue and singing voices.
These three are good examples of ToneBoosters plugins that are both easy to use and extremely practical.
Despite these v3 plugins being commercially discontinued, we can likely expect continued bug fixes.
It seems to be a popular opinion that ToneBoosters make some of the best cheap/free plugins available. The fact that many people still trust them daily despite age and competition speaks highly of these plugins.

Editor’s Note: BPB’s inbox was literally on fire this weekend, with dozens of messages from our readers letting us know about the ToneBoosters freebie. As always, thank you so much for your support, you are amazing! Unfortunately, I was sick for a few days (all cleared up now!), which is why this epic freebie is posted a bit late on BPB. – Tomislav Zlatic
