Freeware from HOFA-Plugins

Here you can get free VST, VST3, AU, and AAX plugins directly from HOFA-Studios. More freeware is in the works – so be sure to check back from time to time …

We especially recommend the HOFA SYSTEM Plugin Bundle FREE – it helps you mix & master faster and better.

HOFA SYSTEM Plugin Bundle FREE

HOFA SYSTEM is a plugin that consists of 31 high-end plugins that you can use individually or combine as you wish – simply by dragging and dropping. In fact, HOFA SYSTEM replaces almost all other plugins and one per track is enough to create complete mixes.

In the HOFA SYSTEM Plugin Bundle FREE, the range of functions is somewhat limited compared to the full version.

  • Work with the dynamics, EQs, reverbs, saturations, FX, and modulations of HOFA SYSTEM.
  • Use all SYSTEM plugins in multiband, mid/side, parallel, and dual-mono routings when needed.
  • This is the perfect freeware for your mixing, mastering, and sound design jobs!

  • Additional high-pass and low-pass filters (6 & 12 dB/octave)

  • Up to 32x oversampling
  • Upgradeable to the full extended version

The full version contains an additional dynamic feature for the low and high frequency range and an integrated analyzer.

HOFA 4U+ BlindTest

  • Innovative tool for an objective comparison of equipment (e.g., plugins) within your DAW
  • Shuffle mode for track anonymization
  • Compensation for different loudness levels
  • Rating and note-taking options

The freeware is identical to the full version, except for the number of possible tracks.
