How the radar works

SoundStack is a short, curated list for producers: instrument and effect plug-ins, free presets for Serum, Vital, and Diva, and smaller sample labels. Each card links to the vendor's own page.

A price is stored only when it was read from that page. If the page does not print a price, the card says so instead of guessing. Compare-at figures are kept when the vendor prints them, and the card notes when that number is a bundle total rather than a previous street price.

Cards marked Featured are editorial spotlights, or complimentary early-partner features. Paid placements are labeled Sponsored and link out with a sponsored relationship. Both are described on the sponsor page.
