Found a code for Evolve Alloy Lite from Excite Audio: FSTH25

https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/ ... Alloy-Lite

It's not free for some reason, the cost came out to $0.66, though you can use v-cash to bring the cost to $0...

Anyway, you can upgrade to full version from this for $20 if desired...

So you could use it to get this month's freebie, "Gainstage Pro"... which unfortunately seems a bit pointless. As I understand it when recording you should set preamp gain as loud as you can without clipping, to minimize the signal to noise ratio. Gaintsage Pro indicates whether it's too quiet or too loud (I'd assume they do the latter by checking whether it's clipping). IDK if it judges "too quiet" by the noise floor or just by gain.

Oh I see it also has settings for things like "hard compression" or "light saturation" to gainstage for when going into most plugin emulations of typical corresponding hardware.

Thx, I got that last night when purchasing the Fuse Audio Ocelot plugins that I had missed at release, well missed is not really correct, as much as I wanted to support Ray, I didn't really need the upmixer or the octaver and I knew they would be available at PB for cheaper than release at some point. That point came pretty quickly since they are currently $15 ea, e.g. %50 lower than release.

Hopefully Ray is ok with that since they tend to undercut his own pricing by a large margin.
Sry Ray, but I got to save where I can, I bought the clipper and limiter direct at least.

the price would be right 😊
Sonnox released Claro in 2021. It’s still good and relevant.

- edit - sorry, please ignore this. Bad reading comprehension on my part.

They were referring to Codec Toolbox which was released about twelve years ago.

Many thanks for this code!

The code for Evolve Alloy Lite works (again). I just bought it for €0.02 and also got the freebie (Gainstage Pro).

What do you mean ? You managed to purchase it with a coupon, but the plugin manufacturer didn't allow you to activate it ?

Thanks for the warning - I was about to buy it but I'll hold off.
