Soundtoys Decapitator


The Decapitator is a favorite of ours here at SKapade Studios and our in-house producers use it on almost every track including Stephen Kirkwoods releases on Spektre’s Respekt Recordings. You can see Stephen using Decapitator in our Needin’ U walkthrough course here, which is currently 50% off for Black Friday.


With five different analog saturation models to choose from, Decapitator is perfect for adding character to every kind of track and instrument in your mixes. They’ve also included a modeled tone control that lets you shape the saturated sound and a mix control that lets you blend in some dry signal for parallel processing without the need for routing and sub-mixes. Combine all of this with the flexibility and reliability of a Soundtoys plug-in, and you’ve got the best of analog and digital together in one essential effect.

Ever felt your mix didn’t sound as good as your reference tracks? It can be frustrating not knowing exactly how to get your music comparable to your favorite mixes. That’s why Mastering The Mix created REFERENCE. It’s packed with powerful tools and never seen before insights to help you get closer than ever to the sound of your favorite music.

  • Compare your mix or master to up to 12 reference tracks and create multiple loops so you can quickly compare various sections of your track to your reference.

  • Instantly and accurately match the loudness of your track and your references. This is crucial for a fair comparison and for making informed decisions on how to shape your sound.

  • Visual and actionable insights to make matching the true peak, loudness, EQ balance, punch, and stereo width of your reference tracks easier than ever.

  • Includes an additional source plugin called REFSEND that allows you to bypass entire FX chains to make loudness-matched A/B comparisons


Arturia Pigments

An immensely powerful wavetable and virtual analogue software synthesizer, Pigments is currently retailing at £89.95 which is a massive 50% off!

  • Intuitive, lightning-fast workflow
