Vitric Bevel EQ + Stoke Saturator Free 2026: Not the Whole Line

This Page Is Bevel EQ and Stoke. It Is Not a Free Eleven-Plugin Bundle.

Stay here for Vitric Audio’s two free launch plugins: Bevel EQ (24-band parametric) and Stoke Saturator (four-knob saturator). Do not use this file as a claim that Caliper, Halo, Kiln, Iron, Burnish, or the Vitric Bundle are free.

KVR dated the launch 1 September 2026. Vitric’s about page names Studio 4 in Cleveland, Ohio, and lists eleven plugins. The official free page is $0 checkout for Bevel and Stoke only.^[1][6][5]

Bedroom Producers Blog (2 September 2026) called Bevel a limited-time free offer and said the store opened 28 August, with no end date listed. Official copy on the homepage and /free page as of September 2026 says Free / FREE FOREVER / licences that never expire. Cite both; do not collapse them into one sentence.{s9}{s2}{s5}

Pro-Q 4 comparisons, Decapitator-style saturation substitutes, and the KVR Developer Challenge roundup live on related pages. This file does not teach those tools.

Launch: 1 September 2026. Eleven Plugins. Studio 4, Cleveland.

KVR’s 1 September 2026 news post: Vitric Audio has launched with eleven plugins built and used at Studio 4, a working recording studio in Cleveland, Ohio.^[1] Vitric’s about page repeats that the studio came first and that the plugins sit in paying sessions before anyone can buy them.^[6]

Formats on that KVR launch note: VST3, AU, and AAX for Windows 10+ and macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon), with a free 3-day full-function trial of each paid plugin and a 14-day money-back guarantee.^[1] Official Bevel/Stoke spec blocks: Windows 10+ 64-bit (VST3, AAX, standalone); macOS 10.15+ Intel / 11+ Apple Silicon (AU, VST3, AAX).^[3][4]

Do not date the company from this September 2026 article. The news post is 1 September 2026; BPB’s 2 September note is the next-day trade write-up and the 28 August store date.^[1][9]

Free at Launch: Bevel EQ and Stoke Saturator Only

KVR’s launch pricing list is explicit: Bevel EQ and Stoke Saturator are free. Everything else on that list is a dollar amount.^[1] Official /free: $0 checkout, no card, full licence by email, perpetual, three machines over the licence’s lifetime, account optional.^[5]

KVR’s Bevel product card still shows $30 and the line “Launch offer: Bevel EQ is free while the launch sale runs. The checkout is $0 and issues a full license.” Stoke’s card still shows $20 with the same launch-sale sentence. Official product pages print Free. Use the storefront you are actually checking out on.^[7][8][3][4]

Bevel EQ: 24 Freeform Bands, Dynamic Bells/Shelves, Per-Band L/R/M/S

Official Bevel page: a 24-band EQ for cleanups, broad tone moves, and dynamic cuts. Put each band in stereo, left, right, mid, or side, and work directly on the spectrum.^[3] KVR’s product copy: any slot can be bell, low shelf, high shelf, notch, high-pass, or low-pass, with high-pass and low-pass slopes of 12, 24, 48, 72, or 96 dB/oct.^[7]

Dynamics on bells and shelves: threshold −72 to 0 dB, signed range ±24 dB, attack and release. The detector is filtered to the band’s own region. Analyzer: pre and post together, 4096 to 16384-pt FFT. Oversampling: Zero Latency / 2x / 4x, host-compensated. Mono-maker: 20–500 Hz, 24 dB/oct. One phase mode (no linear-phase option); stereo only.^[3][7]

Licence on the official page: Free; 3 machines over the licence’s lifetime; yours to keep. Version printed there as of this page: v1.2.0.^[3]

• What it is for Vocal cleanup, intermittent harshness via a dynamic bell, mid/side finishing without a second EQ chain. That is Vitric’s own “put it to work” list—not a Pro-Q 4 clone chart.{s3}
• What it is not Not linear-phase. Not a 24-band match-EQ of Pro-Q 4’s paid editor. Related FabFilter pages cover that job.{s7}

Stoke Saturator: One Voice, Four Knobs, Measured Contracts

Official Stoke page: saturation with Drive, Tone, Mix, and Output. Auto compensates level as Drive changes. Version printed there: v0.2.0. Free; 3 machines; yours to keep.^[4]

KVR + official: one continuous analog-style voice, seven parameters (Drive, Tone, Mix, Output, Auto, Power). No modes or styles. Twelve source-named starting points. Latency: 6 samples (0.125 ms at 48 kHz), reported to the host.^[4][8]

KVR’s launch line: “a one-voice saturator whose behaviour ships as measured contracts.” Official recorded tests they print: 20–120 Hz within ±0.5 dB at Drive 50% (neutral Tone/Output) on 808/kick/bassline tests; aliasing −131 dBFS at full Drive with a 10 kHz sine; Auto within ±0.5 LU on program/bassline tests at Drive 20/60/100%. Those are Vitric’s own test claims, not a third-party lab.^[1][4]

Paid SKUs: Caliper, Halo, Kiln, Iron, Burnish. Recheck Checkout.

KVR’s 1 September 2026 launch list (USD): Harmonic Multiband Compressor $80; Caliper Compressor $50; Halo Reverb $35; Colonnade Delay $25; Iron Summing $100; Plinth Subharmonic Synthesizer $35; Chamfer De-Esser $50; Kiln Synthesizer $80; Burnish Vocal Chain $250. Bundles on that post: Vitric Bundle (all eleven) $470; Mix $155; Vocal $225; Low End $110.^[1]

The official homepage as of this September 2026 page still prices those paid SKUs (some cells show a sale vs a struck-through regular). Bundle totals on that page match KVR’s $470 / $155 / $225 / $110. Do not paste a later shop sale as the launch list.^[2]

FL, Ableton, Logic: One Pass to Grab the Two Free SKUs

This checklist is the $0 Bevel + Stoke path, not a mix course. Confirm the live downloads page if a version moved after this September 2026 file.^[10][5]

1. Check out Bevel and Stoke at $0 on vitricaudio.com/free
   Email required; card not. Official: full licence arrives by email. Do not pay a KVR $30 / $20 card if the official store still says Free.^[5][7][8]
2. Install from the official downloads page
   Mac or Windows installer. Official: paste the key into the plugin’s licence panel. Keep the email.^[10][5]
3. Confirm formats in your DAW
   VST3/AAX on Windows; AU/VST3/AAX on macOS. Pro Tools, Logic, Ableton, Cubase, Studio One, FL Studio, REAPER, Bitwig are named on the spec blocks—your host may still need a newer OS.^[3][4]
4. Do not install the paid line from this page
   Caliper, Halo, Kiln, and the rest are separate SKUs with a 3-day trial. This article does not grant them.^[1][2]
5. Stop before this becomes a Pro-Q 4 or Decapitator course
   Once both instances load, EQ craft and saturation alternatives live on the related slugs—not here.

Pro-Q 4, Decapitator Alts, and KVRDC Freeware Are Out of Scope

This article does not review FabFilter Pro-Q 4, does not pick a free Decapitator substitute, and does not rank KVR Developer Challenge 2026 entries. Those comparisons are related slugs. FabFilter-style EQ moves with free plugins is a related workflow page, not this Cleveland launch note.

As of Sep 2026, official Bevel is v1.2.0 and Stoke is v0.2.0. Recheck vitricaudio.com/downloads if you are reading this after a later point release.^[3][4][10]
