free plugin

send a mix straight from your daw.

acetate is a free plugin for all daws. put it on the master bus and send what you are hearing to whoever needs to hear it.

send music from anywhere.

the file you upload is the file they hear.

upload from the browser, drop it on the acetate app, or send straight from inside your session.

give the app a bounce folder and every bounce sends itself.

play it to them live, before it's even bounced.

the sender plugin streams your session lossless, in real time, end to end encrypted.

when you stop, there's nothing left behind.

they press play in a browser, or pull it straight into their own daw with the receiver.

play it to them live, before it's even bounced.

listen in any browser. no login.

your link opens anywhere and plays exactly as you sent it.

nothing to install. it plays on a laptop, on a phone, in the car.

listen in any browser. no login.

then the link disappears.

who it's for

made for sending music to music people

producers

sending beats and demos, without asking anyone to sign up for anything.

artists

playing an album to a manager before anyone else gets to hear it.

mixing and mastering engineers

streaming a work in progress for sign-off without sending a file at all.

security and quality

built so your music stays yours

live streams are end to end encrypted

sealed on your machine. even our server cannot listen in, it just passes locked boxes along. when the stream ends, nothing is kept.

encrypted in transit and at rest

sent over https, and stored encrypted by cloudflare.

we don't keep your filename

a lossless master's hidden tags and artwork are stripped on upload. the track is stored under a random name only your link can reach.

no download button until you add one

your track streams through a signed, expiring key. the download button appears only when you say so.

gone means gone

expiry is enforced on our server, and delete removes everything, the track and its record.

we don't log who played what

no play-by-play surveillance of your listeners.

send your next mix from the session

acetate is free. it runs in all daws, and it takes about a minute to send your first mix.
