Fries, cheese curds and gravy. Québec's gift to the world, and to your cholesterol. The Poutinizer is built the same way: Cheese on the bottom, Gravy on top, and the fries (your mids) mostly left alone.

It's a parallel multiband compressor and saturator. CHEESE works under 600 Hz with tube-style saturation and a slow, forgiving compressor. GRAVY works above 2 kHz with FET-style saturation and a fast, punchy compressor. Everything in between stays dry. Turn a knob, listen, move on.

VST3, AU and AAX. macOS 10.13 or newer (Intel and Apple Silicon), Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit), and Linux (VST3). Mono and stereo tracks.

It oversamples 4× internally to keep the saturation clean, so it's not the lightest plugin in your folder. A normal session with several instances runs fine. Latency is tiny (about half a millisecond) and your DAW compensates for it automatically.

Nope. No Black Friday, no flash sales, no "72 hours only!!!" The Poutinizer is $29 today, and it'll still be $29 next Black Friday. Buy it whenever you want. You'll never wonder if you should have waited.

Been there, done that. I'm tired of this model of inflating prices to push sales. I'd rather pick a fair price once, keep it the same for everyone, and spend my time making plugins instead of thinking of new promos to make.

Yes. It runs as a 14-day trial with everything unlocked. No account, no internet connection, nothing to sign up for.

The plugin stops processing and lets your audio through untouched, as if it were bypassed. Your sessions still open and play. Enter a license key and it picks up right where you left it, settings and all.

You get a key (POUT-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX) when you buy. Click LICENSE at the top of the plugin, paste it, done. No iLok, no account, no internet, now or ever.

Yes, on your own computers: your studio machine and your laptop, for example. Enter your key on each one. New computer or fresh OS install? Just enter it again.

All updates are free. For life.

Yes. Try the free 14-day trial first, but if it’s still not right for you, email us within 14 days of purchase for a full refund.

macOS: double-click Uninstall-Poutinizer.command in /Library/Application Support/Poutinizer. Windows: open Settings → Apps, search for "Poutinizer" and click Uninstall. Linux: delete Poutinizer.vst3 from your VST3 folder.
