Easy-DAW's in-browser mixer ships a full native DSP suite. Add third-party VST3 plugins on desktop through the free Companion Studio app — they appear as read-only chips inside your cloud project so mobile teammates can still play the session back.
EQ, Compressor, Limiter, Gate, Saturation, Reverb, Delay, Chorus, and more — no install, no CPU surprises.
VST3
Third-party plugins on desktop
Companion Studio scans your VST3 folders and inserts them into any track chain. Presets sync back to the cloud.
Cross-device
Read-only chips on mobile
Sessions that use VST3 open on any device — the plugin renders as a labelled chip on mobile so nothing breaks.
How VST3 works in Easy-DAW
Native EasyDAW plugins run in-browser via WebAssembly and Web Audio. When Companion Studio is running, it exposes your installed VST3 plugins to the cloud project and processes audio locally — your license and CPU stay on your machine.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use VST2 or AU plugins?
Not currently. VST3 is the industry standard and the only third-party plugin format Easy-DAW hosts.
Do I need to install VST3 plugins twice?
No. Companion Studio scans your existing VST3 folders on Windows and macOS. Whatever you already own is available.
