2B Played Music Offers QFX Smush Distortion Plugin for Free (Limited Time)
2B Played Music is offering their foldback distortion plugin, QFX Smush, as a limited-time free download (regular price $19.00).

Foldback Distortion Made Simple

QFX Smush is a one-knob foldback distortion plugin designed for fast and efficient results. Foldback distortion—also known as clipping or overdrive distortion—adds grit, sustain, and harmonic richness to audio signals. While it’s widely used for electric guitars, it’s equally effective on drums, vocals, synth leads, and bass.

When an audio signal exceeds its threshold, the waveform is clipped or “folded back,” introducing harmonics and characteristically saturated textures. QFX Smush offers this sound with minimal effort, making it ideal for quick creative processing.

Intuitive Interface and Presets

The plugin features a single large rotary knob for adjusting the distortion level, supported by three preset foldback modes. These settings tailor the intensity and tonal character of the effect, while the plugin handles the complex calculations in the background.

As part of the Quick Effect (QFX One Series), QFX Smush focuses on ease of use and rapid sound design without overwhelming the user with complex panels or deep menus.

Plugin Details
- One-knob foldback distortion
- Three preset foldback modes
- Quick Effect (QFX One Series) design philosophy
- Ideal for guitars, vocals, drums, synths, and more
- Available in VST3 and AU formats for Windows and macOS
Free Download (Limited Time)

To claim your free copy, use code 2BSPRING at checkout before the offer ends on April 11th. More information about the plugin on the 2B Played Music website.

Production Expert and Klevgrand Offer Richter Tectonic Compressor for Free
Production Expert and Klevgrand are offering the Richter Tectonic Compressor as a free download for a limited time. Normally priced at $70, this exclusive offer allows users to claim the plugin at no cost.

Heavy Compression with Minimal Artifacts

Richter is a tectonic compressor designed to apply heavy compression while minimizing distortion and artifacts. Traditional compressors often introduce unwanted “zipper noise” due to how their envelope followers process transients. Richter takes a different approach, providing smooth, high-quality compression that retains clarity.

Ideal for powerful mixes, punchy drums, and transparent vocals, Richter’s algorithm allows extreme dynamic control without sacrificing sonic integrity.

Intuitive Control and Features

Richter simplifies compression with just two key parameters:
- Amount – Adjusts the intensity of compression applied to the signal.
- Transient Response – Controls how the compressor reacts to quick transients versus sustained sounds.
Additional features include:
- Real-time graph visualization for precise adjustments
- Tonal control for shaping the sound
- Three-step boost switch for added gain flexibility
- Input trim control to manage signal levels
- Makeup gain, dry/wet mix, and output control for fine-tuning
System Requirements

Richter is available in AAX, AU, and VST formats for both Windows and Mac:
- Mac: macOS 10.10 or later (optimized for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs)
- Windows: Windows 7 (SP1) or later, 64-bit host required
How to Get Richter for Free
1. Visit the Production Expert offer page on the Klevgrand website.
2. Log in or create an account.
3. Enter the promo code provided on the offer page.
4. Download and install the plugin.

A Unique Audio Widening Approach

- Creates a wide stereo image while maintaining mono compatibility
- Converts mono recordings into stereo and enhances existing stereo content

Enhance Your Mixes with WideFire

WideFire allows producers to achieve a spacious and immersive sound without introducing unwanted artefacts. It adds depth to vocals, guitars, synths, and various other audio sources, making it an essential tool for mixing and sound design.

Efficient and User-Friendly Design

The plugin features a photorealistic user interface that mimics hardware aesthetics while offering a flexible resizing option. Users can easily adjust the GUI to fit their workflow. Additionally, WideFire operates with an intelligent sleep mode that minimizes CPU usage when processing is unnecessary, optimizing performance.

Compatibility and Future Updates

WideFire is compatible with Windows and macOS, supporting VST2, VST3, AU, and AAX formats. United Plugins ensures that its products remain up to date with modern DAWs and operating systems, offering free lifetime updates.
