Open beta

Download Phaseburn One

One build for everyone — the full instrument, free while the beta runs, terms you can read in a minute.

The beta, in short

Free, and the full synth. Every engine, the patchbay, the probability sequencer — not a cut-down build, no card required.
Free until October 15, 2026. After that it keeps working as a demo until you register a license — which you can do any time.
Full licenses for ten. Ten beta users of our choosing get the full license, free.
Your presets, our call. Any preset you submit can ship as a factory preset, credited to you — submitting grants us that right and creates no obligation on our side. If at least one of yours ships, a solid discount is the least you’ll get. Submissions are open until 1 October 2026.
At our discretion. All perks — the ten free licenses, the discounts, the preset picks — are ours to grant. The beta comes with no guarantees.

Download

The installers land right here when the beta opens — planned 15 August 2026. Leave your email and the download link arrives in your inbox the moment they’re live.

Download the installer for your platform and quit your DAW.
Run it — pick VST3, CLAP or both; the plug-ins land in the standard system folders.
Start your DAW and let it rescan its plugins. Phaseburn One appears in the instrument list.

Before you update: your user banks, favorites and license stay where they are, but the factory banks ship inside the build and are still being curated — a new beta build brings a new factory library. If you have built on top of a factory preset, save it into a USER bank first, or write it out with EXPORT / EXPORT BANK. Presets & Banks has the detail.

Already bought? Your license key is in your email — or manage and re-send it here.

Quick answers

Before you ask

Why the email?

It’s how we reach beta testers: your download link on opening day, and — only if you tick the boxes — new-build notes or the newsletter. No card, no account, and one click unsubscribes from either. The details live in our privacy policy.

Does it cost anything?

No. The beta is free, there is no card step anywhere, and there is nothing to cancel. The build is the full synth and stays free to use until October 15, 2026.

What happens at launch?

Phaseburn One is €149 one-time, incl. VAT for EU buyers — a perpetual, DRM-free license you can register any time. It’s free to use until October 15, 2026, then continues as a demo until you register. Ten users we pick get the full license, free.
