What it is

Universal Plugin is a plugin host by Stagecraft Software that bridges format incompatibilities between DAWs and plugins. It lets you load any VST, VST3, AU, AAX, or CLAP plugin inside any host, regardless of what formats that host natively supports. Whether you're running Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Bitwig, GarageBand, or Luna, Universal Plugin removes the format wall between you and your plugin library.

Who it's for

Producers and engineers who work across multiple DAWs or have a collection of plugins that don't match their host's native format. It's especially useful for Logic or GarageBand users who want to run VST plugins, and Pro Tools users who want access to non-AAX instruments and effects.

Key features

• Load VST, VST3, AU, AAX, and CLAP plugins in any DAW that doesn't natively support them
• Use Logic Pro (AU-only) with your full VST and VST3 library without switching hosts
• Run VST plugins inside Pro Tools without needing a separate AAX version
• Available as a Universal 2 Binary on Mac, supporting both Apple Silicon and Intel, with Windows 10+ and macOS 10.15+ compatibility
