Sterio Plugin

Collaborate in Sterio without leaving your DAW.

Play stems from a Sterio track in sync with your DAW's transport, record a new part with your own instruments and plugins, then bring that take back into the collab.

Download Plugin How It Works

Sterio Plugin loaded on an instrument MIDI track inside a DAW, with the Sterio plugin window open and a Sterio track loaded. — **Important setup note:** load Sterio on an instrument or MIDI track, not an audio track.

Why it exists

For producers who want the social collab flow and their real studio setup.

The Sterio app makes it easy to find the idea and the collaborator. The plugin lets you do the serious production work inside the DAW you already know.

Load it on a MIDI track
