Yes, the Melda MFreeEffectsBundle is indeed 100% free and never expires.
The "free / 30 EUR" pricing model works like this:
The Free Version: You get the entire bundle of plugins fully functional forever. They do not time out, they don't insert silence, and they are completely usable in your projects.
The 30 EUR Upgrade (Optional): If you pay the 30 EUR, it unlocks a few quality-of-life features:
Ability to resize the plugin GUIs.
Preset management (saving and loading user presets).
Access to the advanced edit screens (modulators, multiparameters).
Removes the small promotion banner at the bottom.
For standard mixing tasks (EQ, analyzer, chorus, etc.), the free tier is more than enough and represents one of the best freeware values on the market.

Hi All,
today I released a new free plugin, which has been an audio community most-wanted plugin for quite some time (at least I have seen it pop up a few times over the years on several forums).
Magika Playback Fade, a simple audio plugin designed to reduce listening fatigue by automatically applying smooth fade-ins during playback, whilst being loop-aware.
The plugin helps eliminate abrupt starts, that can be uncomfortable during extended listening sessions, creating a more relaxed monitoring experience for producers, engineers, and everyday users. Think of it like a tape roll-in without the pitch change, just volume.
Magika Playback Fade is available now from Elektra Magika.
PS: This is an ongoing project and I don't have the resources to test all DAWs, however I tried with the ones that are available to me. This plugin will stay free forever. Also, some hosts like ProTools will deactivate it/it seems to freeze after a few seconds of no audio. This is not a bug, it should work again when jumping to a place in timeline with actual audio.

I don't know for VST 3, but in VST 2.4 consider to use noTail(false); and to implement virtual VstInt32 getGetTailSize () { return <some high value>; }. This should tell the DAW that silence shouldn't pause the plugin.ArjaanAuinger wrote: Tue Jun 02, 2026 5:57 pm Hi All,

Free and Open Source:
AudioReroute. Send audio from anywhere in your DAW to any other destination also inside your DAW, circumventing your DAW's routing mechanisms. It enables you to do audio feedback loops if you place a receiver in front of a sender, with FX inbetween if you like. Most DAWs try their best to make this feedback impossible, but experimental modular synth setups use feedback for creative results.
It basically works like Reastream, but without the local LAN so it has barely any Latency and does not need special treatment. Together with my artificial latency introducer plugin called PrecisionUtility, you can basically create a delay line effect with it (https://aquanode.gumroad.com/l/clipprecision).
AudioReroute can be set to transmitting or receiving mode with up to 8 ring buffer channels. This video explains how to use it:
It should work as long as you don't use sandboxed plugins, e.g. bridged 32bit plugins in a 64 bit DAW.
Download link: (Type in $0 at checkout) https://aquanode.gumroad.com/l/audiorerouterfeedback

Windows, but the Source Code can be compiled for Linux and Mac. I don't have a Mac so I can't compile it for Mac, but occasionally I am in contact with a nice Mac developer who may update it eventually (https://cutupmusic.gumroad.com/l/aquanode)mabian wrote: Sun Jun 07, 2026 2:20 pmWhich OS?

Hello everyone,
I wanted to share my latest release with the community: Vinland Drive, a new Vintage Tape Emulator available for macOS (VST3/AU) and Windows (VST3).
In line with the design approach of my previous plugins, this tool is not intended to copy specific hardware. Instead, it was developed to offer an alternative sonic flavor with its own distinct character.
It is available as Free / Pay What You Want here:
https://shadalooaudiodsp.gumroad.com/l/vinlanddrive
Any feedback or thoughts on how it performs in your projects is highly appreciated.

Hey folks. We created a free tunnel reverb that lets the listener move through the tunnel in real time. This is a collaboration with the NEMUS project at the University of Bologna. The tunnel was an air-raid shelter during WWII, and is now a heritage space and arts centre in Northern Italy.
