Pick what you are looking for

Reverbs, delays, compressors, EQs and the rest, each with a count of what you actually own. Tick the kinds you want in the draw, or leave it on ALL and let the whole collection play.

Five skins for the reels

Five skins for the reels

Cyan & Pink, Lime & Violet, Teal & Amber, Ice & Coral, Gold & Rose. Each one recolours both reels and every lit part of the window, and your choice is remembered by name so it survives an update.

Every draw, kept

Every draw, kept

The name, the vendor, the category and how long ago it came up. When something lands that you want to go back to, it is still there, and you can clear the lot in one press.

FAQ

Questions?

What does SpinBrooo do?

It reads the plugins already installed on your machine, sorts them by what they do, and hands you one at random.

Pick a category or leave it on ALL, press SPIN, and two reels turn: one for the kind of thing, one for the plugin.

Is it really free?

Yes. Every feature, with no trial window and nothing to upgrade to.

You sign in once and pair the plugin, which is how your licence reaches it.

Will scanning slow down my session?

SpinBrooo reads your plugins from disk rather than loading them, so a full library is read in a couple of seconds and your session carries on untouched.

Which formats does it find?

AU, VST3, VST2 and AAX, including the plugins that live inside Waves' shells.

It finds them wherever your system keeps them.

Where do the categories come from?

From a catalogue that ships with SpinBrooo, and from what each plugin declares about itself.

Anything it gets wrong you can correct in one click, and the correction sticks.

Can it give me the same plugin twice?

Not twice in a row. SpinBrooo remembers the recent draws and keeps away from them.

In a small category it keeps as much distance as the category allows.

Can I stop it suggesting something?

Yes. Throw a plugin out and it stays out of every spin from then on.

The Plugin Library shows everything it found, with the vendor and the type, sorted by name, vendor or type.

What do I need to run it?

A Mac.

SpinBrooo loads in your DAW as AU or VST3, and it also comes as a standalone app you can keep open beside the session.

Can I change how it looks?

Yes. There are five skins, and each one recolours both reels and every lit part of the window.

Cyan & Pink, Lime & Violet, Teal & Amber, Ice & Coral, and Gold & Rose. Your choice is remembered by name, so it survives an update.

Does it process my audio?

SpinBrooo tells you what to open, and you open it.

It sits on a track as a place to press SPIN from, and your signal passes through it untouched.
