For the people saying they are not free - it's quite simple. Just visit: spectral-plugins.com/ and click the "Download Plugins" button. Then just follow the instructions. IF you google instead, and follow the links to the plugin pages, you might end up on an old paid page.
Do not go there! I was able to use the link on my iPad but the free down loads did not work. Then I went to try it on my windows computer using the link and it loaded malware big time.
Pancz is extremely unstable and has almost crashed every project Ive used it on, its good dont get me wrong, but I immediately bounce whatever Im using it on out to audio.
It should be noted you just have to sign up for a little email newsletter in order to get this free make sure you go to the download these and sign up because if you just try to go straight to him and buy them they're going to try and charge you however much they used to cost
Mike, compliments to you for an excellent logical, easy to understand (and hear) presentation. While I am not a professional musician, producer or engineer, but am a self-taught student, it is an honor to learn from professional people like you. Regading the plug-ins, I definately will use all three, so that I may learn even more! I do like the Spacer plug in overall., but like all three. Thank you!
Thank You so much for the heads up! I will be definitely use the spacer and the pancz...I can see instances when they would be great. My clients don't want a lot of saturation, so I use it sparingly when it's necessary, and almost never use Cassette emulation...
Hi Mike, Spacer is my pick, but I can see them all being useful. Thanks for the heads-up on these. I downloaded them as soon as your video was released. I hope you are well, and I like your Studio B.
Great Video. I really like the tune and what you did to it. Is it going to have a vocal? Too good to not go somewhere. I'm sure I will watch it again After downloading effects and starting to use them. Visual learners appreciate - its clear you spend time thinking about the demo. Thanks,
First off, thanks for the video! I downloaded all the software. On my first day off I am going to try these out. I'll let ya know how well they accompany my effects VST's.
I found them shortly after they got free an spacer became my go to reverb plugin since. The only thing i am missing is the possibility to use the moduls in parallel. They can be rearranged in any order, but they always be in series after each other.
Very useful, thanks! The multiband transient shaper is really dope. 👍 Spacer is probably fun to play around and easily add subtile but layered reverb and echoes. Really cool, thanks again!
One feature of the OCS-45 that i wish was a feature is... wow, this is hard to say, have you ever listened to a cassette and while a song was playing you could hear the other side faintly playing backwards as if the tape was too wide for the tape player head? That would have been a great feature!
As others have commented, I'm weary of using "abandonware" in projects. It's great they are free, but they only say they are making them accessible, not that they will ever update them. Usually not as big of a deal for Windows users, but still worth mentioning.
@ Yes, exactly. I can tell you how many times I have lost how a project sounds because a crucial plugin stopped working. So frustrating. So, using these plugins right now is not a problem, but it will be later.
Thanks so much for this. I'm a filmmaker, and I can imagine some real possibilities for both Pancz and Spacer, both for voice and soundtrack. God bless.
Should i use this on the main drum bus or on a parallel bus? Cos i always parallel comp my drums. So what do i do with pancz? Do i replace TDR Kotelnikov with pancz for my parallel comp? or do i keep using kotelnikov on my parallel and put panz on my drum bus?
In this example I used it on the main bus. But you could use parallel processing if you wanted to say, retain the original character, but add some extra punch.
I feel bad for Spectral Plugins as they make awesome stuff. The plug-in market is oversaturated. I wish the developers well, and hope they are able to continue following their passions.
Hi Mike, thanks for this video. I followed the link you provided and it took me to the spectral-plugins page. Sadly this page lists he plug-ins you cover, but they are not free. I'm in the US, could this be the proplem r am I using an incorrect link?
I purchased Pancz but it suddenly stopped working.... now i know why, i dunno if i got it from plugin boutique but can i still use my actual version and not the free one and if so how?
Thanks, Mike. I’ve been looking for a multiFX plugin for Dexed DX7 vsti, for the usual reverb+delay+chorus add-on. Perhaps this will give me some choices…
While these look like great plugins, I am done using plugins that have no future support or updates. If you are like me and tend to work on projects for sometimes years, it’s incredibly frustrating to open an older project and realize that your OS or DAW can no longer load a plugin. And then your song is forever broken or changed from how you last had it.

@@TheGreatConstantini Could you get rid of it?
None seem to work on my mac. It says contact manufacture can not install. Using Ventura 13.7.2
Pancz will definitely become my default transient shaper for drums! Great suggestions!!!
Pancz is extremely unstable and has almost crashed every project Ive used it on, its good dont get me wrong, but I immediately bounce whatever Im using it on out to audio.
Gonna try it out on my pualready punchy Behringer K2 bass lines. :)
DS-10 Drum Shaper
Wow - thanks Mike, inspired to go back to that song I abandoned back in the day. All of these will give a new perspective 🙂
Thanks Mike. With the OS45, I can now sound like I did in the 70s but tried not to! Thanks for yet another great video. Pete in Derbyshire.
Spacer,will be on every hip-hop project i work on
Needs to be less flaky
7:23 - feels like I'm back in 1999 playing Silent Hill for the first time.
Haha, so true! Also, such a good game :)
Beat me to it. Full SH 😂

just check the mas spam as soon as you download the plug in and you're fine
You can literally just make up a fake email address. Worked fine for me.
@@tempestblack3840 Lol yes, it worked... thanks!

Thanks for pointing these out, trying out all 3 now. So far loving these for yet another set of 'flavors' to try!
Glad they are useful!
Thank You so much for the heads up! I will be definitely use the spacer and the pancz...I can see instances when they would be great. My clients don't want a lot of saturation, so I use it sparingly when it's necessary, and almost never use Cassette emulation...
Thanks for taking the time to demo and share these plugins. 🙏
Hi Mike, thanks for letting us know about these.
And I love that piece of music you’re using. Love to hear the finished song.
Thank you, Mike....... And I hope You are well!...
Spacer just blew my mind. thank you so much!
Amazing plugins!!! Impossible to choose only one. Thanks for sharing!
Love the OS45! Will definitely check out spacer, too. Pancz is great, but I’m set there.
Great vid and demos! Thanks!
Hi Mike, Spacer is my pick, but I can see them all being useful. Thanks for the heads-up on these. I downloaded them as soon as your video was released. I hope you are well, and I like your Studio B.
Glad you like them! Thank you :)
Thanks for the head’s up Mike! I can definitely see a use for all 3. Excited to give them a go !
I Ispacer is my favorite creative plugin. I've had this for awhile now and love the creative possibilities.
Thank you for the heads up! These are amazing additions to my plugin toolbox.
That transient designer definitely looks like a keeper. Gonna go try that one out on my current mix.
I'm only halfway through the video as i type this and I've already downloaded all three! Thanks Mike!
Thanks! ❤
Thanks so much, Mike. You're the best for doing all the work you do to help us all out.
Great Video. I really like the tune and what you did to it. Is it going to have a vocal? Too good to not go somewhere. I'm sure I will watch it again After downloading effects and starting to use them. Visual learners appreciate - its clear you spend time thinking about the demo. Thanks,
Thanks! They sound great. Pancz is really great for drums and Spacer have really nice presets.
Glad you like them!
Good looking out! Thank you for sharing!
Well done Mike, these all look awesome! I'll use them all
This is amazing. I can already see how they could work on some of my current projects .
Awesome!
First off, thanks for the video! I downloaded all the software. On my first day off I am going to try these out. I'll let ya know how well they accompany my effects VST's.
osc 45 is the real all in one cassette tapes nightmare for a 1980´s walkman owner. thank you! and yea, spacer is my favorite one.
Lol. So true. Thanks
Profuse thanks as always Mike. Love Spacer - especially your CREATIVE PIANO preset!!
Haha! Thanks John :)
I found them shortly after they got free an spacer became my go to reverb plugin since. The only thing i am missing is the possibility to use the moduls in parallel. They can be rearranged in any order, but they always be in series after each other.
Thank you Mike, stay safe and well
Very useful, thanks! The multiband transient shaper is really dope. 👍 Spacer is probably fun to play around and easily add subtile but layered reverb and echoes. Really cool, thanks again!
thanks man! I was looking for an alternative to Spacer! great video!
Thank you :)

I bet the tape one solely on bass on that tube setting? Solid. Thanks for the links
Thanks Mike, cant say which will be my favourite but I'm gonna enjoy finding out! Thanks mate👌
Basically, Pancz is sort of a compressor and maybe a gate. It does simplify things, you don't need to mess with a compressor.
I have had Spacer for awhile but after seeing this got to get the other two
All are good but I think Spacer is the one I'll look further in to. Thanks again Mike!
Thanx Mike for bringing these free plugins under our attention!
big fan of the OCS-45... use it all the time on almost every sound source...
Think I'll get spacer. The other two look nice as well but I've got those needs covered already and I'm trying to use less plugins these days.
I totally agree! They really add a lot of value. 🙌✨
As others have commented, I'm weary of using "abandonware" in projects. It's great they are free, but they only say they are making them accessible, not that they will ever update them. Usually not as big of a deal for Windows users, but still worth mentioning.
Yep, I am staying away, even though they look really nice.
Why you need update to use them?
@@SubconsciousLight OS updates can cause issues, macOS especially. I prefer to use supported plugins. YMMV.
@ Yes, exactly. I can tell you how many times I have lost how a project sounds because a crucial plugin stopped working. So frustrating.
So, using these plugins right now is not a problem, but it will be later.
I definitely don't need more plugins, but, I definitely need more plugins. Thanks :)
👍🏼☝🏼😂
How would the first plugin do on spoken word? We often have some room ambience or bleed over.
It's an interesting question, as I've never tried. My instinct would be that an expander or a gate might still be a better option. But worth a try!
Hi Mike. Hope you're going good.
I am thanks man!
Great tip, Mike. Thanks
Thanks so much for this. I'm a filmmaker, and I can imagine some real possibilities for both Pancz and Spacer, both for voice and soundtrack. God bless.
Great VSTs! Thanks. :)
Love the Spacer.
That's a Lovely Melody.is there a full song Mike?
Thank you very much! Your videos are excellent and always helpful!
thank you for bringing these plugs to everyones attention
My pleasure!

@@CreativeSauce Thank you :)
Thanks Mike...hello from Puerto Rico
Already got these, Mike! They're great.
Yes, the distortion gives a little music vibe for 'Succession' TV show!
Wonderful Mike thank you (but not great for Spectral I'm afraid)
Spacer and OCS-45 are fanfreakingtastic. Spacer is my goto ambiance maker lol
Great video great plugins! Thank you!
My pleasure thanks :)
Wow, thanks a lot, Mike!) Pancz is a real pearl! Until this one free Flash by Wavesfactory was my go-to transient shaper)
Hi Mike. I hope you well.
Same to you Harry. Thank you!
Thanks Mike, I Like All Three ! Thanks for posting these gems...
My pleasure thanks :(
Amazing plug-ins, it's sad the company is closing down
Agreed. I wish we could revive them!
Good shout Mike 👍
Any of these good for voice overs?
I feel bad for Spectral Plugins as they make awesome stuff. The plug-in market is oversaturated. I wish the developers well, and hope they are able to continue following their passions.
Mike how did you get so much width on your kit?

Hey man, there should be a big blue download button just above the list.
@@CreativeSauce Got it thanks.
Thanks for spreading the word on these.
Thanks for this information !!!
Y U NO DEMO DOWNSAMPLE DISTORTION?
Solid. Thank you.
My pleasure:)
Thanks, as usual useful videos and great choice if free plugins!
Is there any link to the free ones? Cause the webpage doesn’t show them free at all…
Pancz and Spacer sound amazing, next stop your link to download, thanks
I like the last one.
I purchased Pancz but it suddenly stopped working.... now i know why, i dunno if i got it from plugin boutique but can i still use my actual version and not the free one and if so how?
These are great but I can't get them to work in any of my daws
Thanks, Mike. I’ve been looking for a multiFX plugin for Dexed DX7 vsti, for the usual reverb+delay+chorus add-on. Perhaps this will give me some choices…
Not multi-fx but have you got Valhalla's freebies? Supermassive (reverb) gets a lot of love, but the others are cool as well .
Thanks Again Mike
Spacer
i use OCS45 this on the lowest settings as my fav tape sim on everything! :)
Your tune reminds me of message to Harry manback by Tool.
Website not working
thanks Mike I will download them
Thanks Mike 👍
Just went to their website and it appears they are charging for all 3 plugins. Am I doing something wrong?
They're still free. You need to go to the main page instead of separate plugin pages.
Thanks
I wish the cassette could remove w & f from old tapes.
Dat spacer do reverb Fx dark Wave spooky Sound Love ❤
I heard free plugin and immediately downloaded luckily for me Im making music now so its incredibly useful thank god this was recommended
Thanks Mike, Ya Great stuff. To bad for what ever reason the are no longer. But what A Stand up move to offer the plugs for free as long as they can.
While these look like great plugins, I am done using plugins that have no future support or updates. If you are like me and tend to work on projects for sometimes years, it’s incredibly frustrating to open an older project and realize that your OS or DAW can no longer load a plugin.

The website seems to have already disappeared...
thanx a lot !
I'm downloading pancz now
