Not Compatible with WIndows Arm!

By Sweetwater Customer

Soundtoys 5 is not compatible with ARM-based Windows machines!

Sweetwater fails to note this. Soundtoys buries this information on their webpage (which I only found after it failed to install) on the bottom of a page.

So before buying non-returnable software that deceives consumers via omission - make sure you don't have a system running on Windows ARM chips.

Character and Vibe

By Lucas from Phoenix, AZ
Music Background: Intermediate Producer and Songwriter

These plugins are simply unmatched. Each one adds its own funky/vibey character that when tweaked can really help each audio track in your mix tell a story that feels raw and fresh. When you start experimenting with these things and let go your preconceptions you can truly create some awesome sounds that would have never worked with lesser software.

Pros: Analog coloration and saturation that actually feels real (not fake and scratchy) truly enriching each track. Limitless experimentation opportunities. Large numbers of interesting presets to spark inspiration. These effects are the real deal. The quality and smoothness of effects produced far exceeds more budget friendly or free plugins offered by other companies such as Waves. These go on sale very rarely but when they do, you get serious bang for your buck. Easy install and setup.

Cons: Most presets are only usable after tweaking. The interfaces of some plugins in the bundle while aesthetically pleasing are not the most intuitive and have a steep learning curve. The interfaces of some plugins are highly simplistic allowing for only limited adjustment. Not amateur friendly but if you're dropping this much money you probably have solid experience under your belt.

Honestly, I have yet to come across software that has revolutionized my mixing in the same way these plugins have. My haphazard experimentation with them has evolved into a vibey sonic blueprint I am proud of. Truly a gift for those who cannot affords tens of thousands in niche analog gear. Thanks Soundtoys, and thanks Sweetwater for a confident purchase!

Soundtoys makes some stellar plugins!

By Eric J. from Longmont, CO
Music Background: Composer for ShadowsUnderground.

These plugins are amazing. They are capable of producing a lot of character when dialed in or can be used conservatively. I got a great deal on them too. I've used these on every track on my upcoming album and there's still a huge amount of potential to dig into.

Essential plugin

By Sweetwater Customer

Great for adding life to songs and or production, I recommend it to everyone.

Stuck in the past

By Sweetwater Customer

Terrible GUI's on these. It's like they were designed by children. Sound quality ok, but there are much better offerings from PA, Waves, IK and Izotope

Just what you need. Soundtoys are awesome!

By Sweetwater Customer from California
Music Background: Music Artist - Music Engineer

I've used many different plug-ins in the past. I am new to the Soundtoys bundle. I must say that I am super impressed with these plug-ins! They have a quality and sound that nothing can match. I've been using them on every mix and will continue to use them moving forward. If you're considering buying this bundle, I would not hesitate.

Just what you need. Soundtoys are awesome!

wonderful color and effects, however a bit cpu hungry

December 7, 2021

So far so good!

By R. J. from Atlanta, Ga

Couldn't have caught it at a better deal. Haven't used anything but echo boy so far and I'm loving it!

First Time Soundtoys User!

By Chris S. from New Orleans, LA
Music Background: singer/songwriter/musician for inthecornerofadream.com

Wow. That single word COULD sum up this amazing bundle. These plugins sound amazing and have helped me up my mixing game by giving some tasty flavor to my tracks and mixes with minimal effort. I can't say enough about how glad I am I got this bundle. How did I ever get by without these wonderful 'toys'?

Very impressed

By Glauber L. from Westborough, MA

One of the best investments i have made for my studio, you need this.

Sound Toys

By Jeff
Music Background: Recording engineer/producer

I am trying to use them all. I ended up trying each one and made a priority list and came up with a price individually that was more than the cost of the bundle. The lesser known tools are still tools that allow your creativity to go off the road and make new sounds.

The most exciting plugins you will own.

By Joshua S. from Olympia, WA
Music Background: Studio, Live

These plugins are the most exciting/interesting plugins I've ever used. They aren't your average workhorse mixing type plugins. No clean compression or EQ here. It's all about character, vibe, and expression. Making new sounds. Creating new tones and textures from your existing audio that you didn't even know you could get. The Decapitator, Devilcoc and Microshift are easily 3 of my favorite plugins of all time and are in every mix I do. The other plugins are also very inspiring. If you're having some writers block, and just need something to get the creative juices flowing, pick a Soundtoys plugin at random, tweak the knobs or pick a preset, and you are bound to achieve something that is usable or at least something that piques your interest enough to get your mind working and excited again. The whole bundle is totally worth it.

Tech issues aside, great plugins

By Geoffrey K. from Alhambra, CA

These are great plugins, definitely a daily user of this stuff.

In particular, if you're looking for stuff that can help with harmonic distortion, or in general, decent sounding sonic thickeners, the Decapitator and the others are great for this kind of thing.

Great Must Have Bundle!

By Mitchell H. from Media Pa 19063
Music Background: Producer, Mixer, Musician

I like the bundle a lot, Im still experimenting. the Decapitator will take your mixes to the next level.

October 13, 2020

meh!

By Sweetwater Customer

These are OK. Seem to drag CPU down when using and I have a new computer built for audio. I am thankful I got them during the offer in the lockdown period. I find myself going to these last. Delays are nice and the SIE EQ is interesting. But I tend to lean more UAD,Waves, or Izotope plugs first.

July 7, 2020

I use this on absolutely everything

By Sweetwater Customer

Easily some of the best plugins for mixing and mastering. Such great sounds and effects, you'll be able to use these from creation to finish on practically any and every audio project.

Echo boy alone...

By Sweetwater Customer

Would make this bundle worth it! Still getting to know everything else, so far, so fun!

Top Of The Line

By Jason from Los Angeles, CA.
Music Background: Session Guitarist/Composer/Producer

Soundtoys 5 is the complete package providing necessities such as reverb and delay but also TONS of tasty options for getting creative as well. I love to experiment with different combinations in the included 'Rack' plugin. Easy to use and amazing Pro sound quality!

Amazing!

By Nick B.

Extremely versatile, functional interface, the presets are great. The effect rack is incredible for running through various tones over a sample. Wonderful, usable product that's well worth money. All the frills are there for a reason and the devil-loc really is amazing for drums. Possibly the most useful VST I own.

December 20, 2019

Really impressed

By Sweetwater Customer

Amazing FX bundle with a surprisingly analog-ish quality! If you're serious about your sound, you got to have these plugins!

Soundtoys bunfle

By Shawn l. from California

Great set of plugins and happy to have them in the arsenal.
Love the support from Sweetwater, these guys are always on point and if they cant get you what you need then you probably dont need it! I could of purchased these plugs directly from Soundtoys but Sweetwater has always been #1 for me when dealing with online big box stores and every purchase I have made from them they have gone out of there way to make sure I was completely satisfied....so I choose to vote with my $$$ and made my purchases through Sweetwater.

By Bruce from Temple, Texas
Music Background: Singer Songwriter, Home Studio

OK, YOu got to buy the bundle to get the deal, buit Oh, they are worth it. Echo Boy to me is the best plug-in I have and I have a lot of them. Decapitator is an excellent saturation plugin. Just get it.

Getcha' Pull

By David K. from Chicago
Music Background: Production

By Far My Favorite Suite of FX plugs. Even the presets on these puppies get your wheels turning in terms of creativity. It will make you think about the next time you need to ad a little sumfin to your verses or really just anything. I highly recommend you demo it and try them out.If you like me and you looking for a go to there is more than a handful of great plugins in this bundle.

Seriously phenomenal plugins

By Vaughn D. from Columbus
Music Background: Engineer

These are hands down my go to plugins for their respective effects. EchoBoy is my favorite delay. This whole bundle is incredibly musical. Their new plate reverb is now my go to reverb. Decapitator is perfect for adding a light saturation to comepletely crushing a source with heavy distortion. You won"t regret getting this bundle.

Not a Good Company to work with

By David K. from Ohio
Music Background: Musician for 40+ years, Pro Engineer 30 years.

I can't go into the details because Sweetwater censors their reviews. But having spent 100K here I know what I'm talking about as a musician and a patriotic American. And if they don't start posting my reviews I'm gong to have a problem with them.

December 22, 2016

Yep, This...

By Chuck from Georgia
Music Background: Performer, Producer, Studio Owner

As far as effects go, I was expecting this bundle to be good. I'd seen the online vids with guys putting the plug-ins through the paces, so I knew that these would be useful tools in my studio. But what really impressed me shortly after I got this bundle, I had a very good sampled bass pulled up and was browsing through the presets on the "rack" settings (where different combos are provided mixing different plug-ins.) When playing the sampled bass through the 'rack' presets, there was a depth and quality that was surprising. Even though a sampled bass guitar, so many of the presets sounded amazing - big, fat, full, clear, open, present... I've heard of others talking about the "analog" vibe that these plug-ins have, and they are right. Whether it's the "analog vibe", or the huge, fat sound that you are hearing, you will get a kick out of these plug-ins. Now I'm waiting on other sessions so that I can try out different plug-ins and presets on vocals, keys, horns, and anything else that needs some fly character. I own tons of plug-ins, but when I find ones that work, I always go to them first. These just work. My only complaint is that I should have gotten this pack when it was on 'Black Friday / Cyber Sale' for a steal.

Ed Nystrom helped me with my purchase. He has to be the coolest sales engineer on the planet. Anyway, the plugins are amazing. They make digital recordings sound more analog. They are must haves.
