Strata


Early Access Pricing — Ends 31 December

Strata is available at a special launch price of US$25 during December 2025. The standard price will be US$75.

Your Music As You've Never Seen It Before

See the frequency spectrum of every track in your project in one graph! It's like an X-Ray of your song. Instantly see which tracks are muddying your low end, and which synths are reaching up into your high hat zone. Look at the mids and it will be obvious if one track is too loud. Watch, mesmerised, as tracks arrive and leave the graph.

Drop And Look

Drop the Strata Track plugin on each track and then drop the Strata Vision plugin on any track and open it. It's that simple! Watch the first two minutes of this video in which Strata is deployed in a Bitwig project (from scratch) just in time for the drop!

Cleanup Your Song — Before

Here is a screenshot of Strata showing the first cut of a song. As you can see, by using Strata, it is immediately obvious:

  • The bass is reaching down too low and intruding on the kick and the sub.
  • The lead is also extending down far too low.
  • The pad is completely out of control in the whole spectrum.
  • The pad is far too loud relative to the other tracks.

Cleanup Your Song — After

Here is a screenshot of the song after it has been cleaned up with simple high and low EQ cuts on each track:

  • The bass has been restricted from the low end and thinned a little at the top.
  • The lead has been trimmed at the top and the bottom so that it sits in the middle of the spectrum.
  • The pad has been trimmed too and its volume lowered.
  • The sub has also been moved down an octave.

Note: This is just an example; it's not always best to routinely low+high cut like this.

Choose Your World Of Colour

Choose from a range of graph colour palettes or automatically import your DAW's track colours (Ableton, FL Studio, Reaper, Bitwig, and Cubase only). Here are the colour palettes Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring, and Rainbow. You can click on them to have a closer look.

Stretch Your Canvas

Resize Strata's window to whatever you like: big, small, tall, or wide. Strata adjusts its spacing, line widths, and font sizes to suit whatever window size and shape you choose.

Tread Lightly

  • Low RAM.
  • Low CPU.
  • I have made crashproofing Strata's primary design goal.
  • If you're going to put Strata on every one of your tracks, it had better be rock solid. And it is!

Be Free

Run Strata hassle-free. Our copy protection is designed merely to remind you to pay, not to engage in a pointless escalating tech war with bootleggers:

  • No iLok.
  • No dongle.
  • No subscription.
  • No computer ID lock. Strata just works if you upgrade to a new computer.
  • No requirement of internet access.
  • Never blocks audio, even if there is no licence certificate.
  • Install (for your own use) on multiple computers, or
  • Install on one computer for multiple users.
  • Every version of Strata will run forever, (at least until the plugin's host environment (e.g. OS and DAW) renders the executable un-run-able).
  • Strata comes with five years of free updates.
