What's in the package

AI Mastering

Listens to your mix and offers three level-matched masters to choose from, then lets you fine-tune every stage.

27 TT- plugins

EQ, compression, vocals, pitch, clean-up, stereo, space and effects, plus two instruments (TT-Wave and TT-Compose) — one consistent look and workflow.

Made for real sessions

Presets, A/B compare, undo, latency-matched bypass and five switchable themes in every plugin.

  • AI MasteringThe full mastering chain in one plugin, with Auto Master (a measurement-based solver, not a neural network), A/B, macros and presets.
  • TT-EQA free-band dynamic EQ with a sidechain.
  • TT-PreA channel input stage with Auto Gain Stage.
  • TT-HarmonicsAnalogue-style saturation focused on a band.
  • TT-CompA compressor with five circuit characters.
  • TT-MultibandUp to four-band compression and expansion.
  • TT-LimiterA true-peak limiter with a clipper in front.
  • TT-ClipA clipper.
  • TT-GateA gate, expander or ducker with a sidechain.
  • TT-TransientAttack and sustain shaping.
  • TT-DeEsserA de-esser.
  • TT-VoxA one-knob vocal channel.
  • TT-TunePitch correction for a single voice; also a note editor (ARA) in Studio One.
  • TT-ResonanceFinds and tames ringing, harsh frequencies as they happen.
  • TT-RepairCleans up the top end of AI-generated and MP3-degraded audio (AI Smooth).
  • TT-SpaceCarves room in one track for another, from a sidechain key.
  • TT-StereoMono-safe widening.
  • TT-DelayA tempo-synced tape delay.
  • TT-ReverbFive reverb spaces.
  • TT-ModulationChorus, flanger, phaser, doubler, tremolo and more, plus Natural Double.

  • TT-MatchReference matching.
  • TT-RiderAn automatic vocal level rider.
  • TT-MorphA voice changer (pitch and formants), with a MIDI input.
  • TT-PumpTempo-synced volume shaping: the sidechain pump without a sidechain.
  • TT-LinkChanges nothing to the sound. It puts a track with no other TakeTown plugin on the AI Link. Free, never restricted.
  • TT-WaveA polyphonic wavetable synthesizer, the suite's first instrument.
  • TT-ComposeAn instrument that plays the MIDI parts Claude composes, in sync with your song.

Install in a few minutes

  1. Get your download link. Enter your email above and use the link we send you (check spam if it doesn’t arrive in a few minutes). It gets you the main installer and, if you want it, the AudioToMidi installer.
  2. Close your DAW (Studio One, REAPER and so on) and Claude Desktop if it’s open. The installer can’t replace a plugin your DAW has loaded.
  3. Run TakeTown-Setup-0.9.0-beta.exe. The beta isn’t code-signed yet, so Windows may say “Windows protected your PC”. Click More info, then Run anyway (only for an installer you got from cloud9tn.com). There’s no administrator prompt: it installs for your Windows user.
  4. Keep the suggested components. The installer ticks the integrations for the DAWs and Claude apps it finds on your computer. Click through to finish.
  5. Optional: install AudioToMidi. Run TakeTown-AudioToMidi-Setup-0.9.0-beta.exe. It needs an internet connection and downloads about 1.8 GB while it sets up (no Python install needed on your side).
  6. Open your DAW and rescan plugins. They appear under the vendor name TakeTown Audio. Add any plugin to a track or your master bus; each opens with sensible defaults and presets. Studio One, REAPER, Claude setup and troubleshooting are in the Install & setup guide.

Works with

Any Windows DAW that loads 64-bit VST3: Studio One, Cubase, Reaper, FL Studio, Ableton Live, Bitwig and more.

Sorry, Pro Tools users

This beta is VST3 only, so there's no AAX for Pro Tools yet — and no Mac or AU version. They're on our list.

Beta licence

Free to use through December 31, 2026. After that the plugins pass audio through untouched (they never mute your session) until you update.
