MOST POPULAR VST PLUGINS

Ranked

This is a live ranking of the most popular VST plugins, ordered by the total number of customer reviews each one has collected at the retailers we track. Review count is a better popularity signal than a star average on its own: a plugin rated 4.9 by six people tells you far less than one rated 4.6 by nine thousand.

Where the same plugin is sold by more than one retailer we group the listings together, rank it using the listing with the most reviews, and show you the price and link for that same listing — so the review count you see always belongs to the deal you click. Prices and review counts refresh automatically every day, and not every retailer publishes review data, so this chart reflects the catalogues that do.
