By making any purchase on Plugin Boutique this December, you can nab yourself a free copy of either UAD’s Oxide Tape Recorder ($149), Karanyi Sounds’ Vapor Keys ($49), Izotope’s Nectar 4 Elements ($49), or Pitch Innovations’ Rhythm Box ($29).
All four plugins are macOS and Windows releases, and the December offer will expire on January 2, 2025.
Plugin Boutique has really gone all out for the Christmas giveaway, as usually, their monthly promos only offer a choice between two plugins.
There’s some fine print about exactly what products qualify to pick up the giveaway, but the long and short of it is that any paid purchase that isn’t a rent-to-own plan will allow you to pick up a free plugin.
Alright, producers, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for this month’s loot.
UAD’s Oxide Tape Recorder offers tape emulation with a modern workflow built for ease of use.
The plugin delivers the musical sound of tape, which can add clarity, punch, and warmth to your instrumental and vocal tracks.
UAD has zeroed in on just the essential parameters, allowing you to get your tape sound dialed in quickly.
Karanyi Sounds’ Vapor Keys offers 23 accurately sampled FM and wavetable synth patches.
The synths are designed to bring the sounds of the ‘90s into the modern era.
To me, the ‘90s just seems like yesterday but I guess I’m old enough now that my era has swung back around to making a retro cool comeback.
The synth suite features a “vintage” effects rack with more than 40 custom algorithms to spice up your sounds, as well as a Smart Random Bar to kick off rapid sonic experimentation.
Izotope’s Nectar 4 Elements is an AI-powered vocal production tool that includes comp, de-essing, EQ, pitch correction, and reverb.
It seems to me that distributors give away this plugin every few months, so I’d be kinda surprised if anyone who wants this hasn’t already picked it up in one of the previous giveaways.
Pitch Innovations’ Rhythm Box is a rhythm sequencer designed to turn your laptop keyboard into a drum machine, as opposed to fiddling with the piano roll.
There’s a range of pre-sequenced patterns to get you started quickly, as well as a sampler that has several sampled kits, with both of these features catering to various genres.

onHi Guys! Carp Audio offers Reeferb plugin as a free download

onRE: Distributors give away Nectar 4 Elements every few months. Hopefully I have not missed it but everytime I’ve seen it given away for free this year it has only been Nectar 3 Elements. With elements 4 now appearing as a free gift option it’s probably a sign that iZotope are going to drop Nectar 5 soon, with a option to upgrade.

onNectar 5 was already released last October. Btw, it’s nice that Izotope gives away free plug-ins from time to time. I got their EQ and Audiolens a while back, and Ozone 8 a few years ago.

onMaybe ok for some atmospheric sounds, but it feels a bit artificial and will lack controls that a real instrument or VST has, so might just be ok for fairly generic music.

onThat’s interesting! UJAM released UFX reverb less than three months ago, and it was free until Halloween. It has now already been updated to v2, and it will cost $19 for v1 users to upgrade.
Almost like v1 was a beta release…
Ants
onPlugin manufacturers now use free versions just to try entice users to upgrade with a “special offer”.
The market is getting saturated…. BPB knows it, so many free plugins, so many sales…

onPSP Audioware have a new free reverb plugin called Chamber. Based on one of the algos from their EasyVerb plugin.
Get it on their site.
If you’re new to PSP they also have two other freebies: PianoVerb and stepDelay (previously cmDelay).
