Sonible learn:bundle
Sonible’s new learn:bundle is aimed at producers who want their tools to do more than just look pretty in a plugin folder. This collection includes five AI-driven audio tools – EQ, compressor, limiter, reverb, and an unmasking plugin – all designed to improve your mix and your mixing skills.
Not just another “AI-enhanced” marketing buzzword – these actually do the job, and show their work while doing it.
As you might already know I love most of the tools Sonible releases and this also seems great as its based on the knowledge they have from their other product releases. Im testing their 30 day trial at the moment.
Why you might actually use these:
- AI that earns its keep: Each plugin analyses your audio and makes solid suggestions. You can tweak or take over completely, but either way, you’re working smarter, not fiddling blindly.
- Learn by doing (literally): The plugins walk you through both beginner-friendly and advanced settings. It’s a bit like having a mix engineer whispering “maybe take a little off 250Hz there” – except without the smug attitude.
- Unmasking without the mystery: learn:unmask sorts out clashing frequencies between tracks with a couple of clicks. It’s like that moment you mute the pad and suddenly the vocal works… only automated and less frustrating.
- Visual feedback that makes sense: Real-time graphs and metering show what’s going on under the hood. Useful if you’re still figuring out the difference between “transparent compression” and “squashed to hell.”
- Loud, clean, and modern: learn:limit helps you hit the right loudness without murdering your dynamics. Great for music, podcasts, and anything that ends up on streaming.
- Fast results, pro sound: Ideal if you’re producing content at speed – be it music, YouTube voiceovers, or podcast episodes. These plug-ins keep quality high without slowing you down.
Heads-up:
There’s a 40% educational discount if you’re a student or teacher. So if you’re teaching music tech – or pretending to be a student again – this is a decent deal. Also consider using their 30 days trial before purchasing.
A few solid alternatives to check out:

- FabFilter Pro bundle (for when you want total control, minus the AI)
- Gullfoss (for intelligent EQ but with less feedback)
- Waves Clarity Vx / Vocal Rider (for quick podcast or voice cleanup)
