One curve

The curve is the interface

Double-click the spectrum to drop a band, drag the node to move it, scroll to tighten the Q. Eight shapes, cut slopes to 96 dB/oct plus a vertical Brickwall. No menus, no typing numbers.

One assistant

Smart Ops does the tedious part

Match a reference, hunt resonances, de-ess, auto-bracket with high and low cuts, unmask one track against another. One click each — and every move stays fully editable afterward.

One download

Free, and it stays free

No account, no license key, no trial limit, no phone-home. It works offline, on Windows, macOS and Linux, and it keeps working the day we stop shipping updates.

Before you download

Is AURORA really free?

Yes — the full plugin, no license key, no account, no trial limit and no feature gates. It is not a lite edition of a paid product and there is nothing to unlock inside it.

Will it run in my DAW?

VST3 and CLAP on Windows 10/11 (64-bit), macOS 11+ (plus AU for Logic, universal binary) and Linux x86_64 (plus LV2 for Ardour). That covers FL Studio, Ableton, Logic, Bitwig, Cubase, Studio One, Reaper and more.

What does Smart Ops actually do?

One click each: match a reference curve, hunt and tame resonances, de-ess, auto high-/low-cut bracket, and unmask one track against another. It writes real bands onto the curve — so every move it makes stays fully editable afterward.

Does it add latency?

None in zero-latency mode or in the analog-matched Natural mode. True linear-phase mode reports its delay compensation to the host, so everything in your session stays in sync.

What's the catch?

There isn't one on AURORA. It exists so you can judge whether 13x builds serious software before anyone asks you for money — the paid products come later, and this one stays free either way.
