Plugin Boutique and Beatport offer the iZotope Iris 2 ($149 value) virtual instrument as a free download until 16:00 (PST) on November 12th, 2020.
Iris 2 is a virtual instrument that combines a sampler’s flexibility with the power of a modular synthesizer. It uses sample playback, synthesis, and spectral filtering to generate unique and unusual sounds.
See also: Free Synthesizer VST PluginsDig deep into Iris 2’s synthesis engine or browse through hundreds of included presets. The bundled sounds were crafted by leading sound designers and artists. Iris 2 comes with an 11 GB sound library and a collection of patches in various categories like bass, pads, leads, keys, and more.
Another great feature is Iris 2 are the macro controls. Even if you’re not a sound design expert, it’s easy to morph the available presets in real-time using the macro knobs. Select a sound from Iris 2’s sound library and tweak it to fit your project.
Also, layer up to four samples to build complex sounds that would be impossible to create with a regular synthesizer or a sampler.

onOk, now listen!
I have this one for ages. Don’t get it!.
It is really buggy and above all, very slow. You will get really frustrated. It produces gltching, crackling and good luck if you can make you DAW run without a sudden stop or crush!.
iufwyu
onwtf it runs really quick in my pc tho :/
bx748
onSorry, correction!
This version run smooth, do not know why. There were not official updates as far as I know.
Enjoying now for the first time since 2014.

onThank you! <3

onThis is a crazy good deal, this plugin is amazing if youre someone who uses a lot of samples. Best thing about it is that is auto maps your samples pitch to the keyboard as if the sample were C. Layer in a few more samples and you’ve got a one of kind patch going on really quick. One of the most inspiring plugins I’ve used in awhile.

onThey do it for a reason, they make it free for a reason. It doesn’t work!
Bx748
onI had to uninstall!
frozenjaZz
onMaybe I should give it a go…
I got it for free a while ago from PluginBoutique, but I still don’t really see what it can really do… I never watched or listened to any convincing demo of what it can do…
Origin Makers
onVery high on CPU… But if you want to do serious sound designing just open a dedicated project for this synth… Bcozz you can achieve the sound u want achieve pretty quickly using this monster… I may not use this one regularly but as a music producer we have to surprise our audience once in a while , whatever it takes… Sound >>>>> CPU
bx748
onI noticed if you work on a song in 96kHz or 192kHz, it is high in CPU, but as soon as you switch to 48 or 44, then it is good.

onGreat thing, but I wonder where is the .dll file my DAW could link to. Or is it a standalone version only?
bx748
onif vst3 then is in program files – common files – vst3
if vst 64 then in your DAW folder – vstplugin folder
Marcus Herbold
