Meet the Team
Integraudio was built on one idea: if we recommend a plugin, we’ve actually used it — in a real DAW, on a real mix, not just read the spec sheet. That same standard applies here. Whether you’re a plugin developer, a fellow producer, or just have a question about something we reviewed, we read everything that comes through this form ourselves.
Our team works out of real studios, not a content farm — Berk Oztuna handles plugin testing and reviews, and Jack Cockrell covers genre-specific production and mixing guides. If you’re reaching out about a review, a correction, or a collaboration, tell us specifically what it’s about and you’ll hear back from someone who actually knows the subject, not a generic support inbox.
For press, partnership, or advertising inquiries, the same form works — just let us know that’s what you’re reaching out about, and we’ll route it accordingly.
Berk Oztuna — Plugin Reviews
A multi-instrumentalist based in Istanbul, Berk puts every plugin through its paces in a real mix before writing a word about it. If a review has his name on it, he’s actually used the thing.
Jack Cockrell — Genre Production Guides
A mixing and mastering engineer with real streaming credits to his name, Jack writes the genre-specific guides — the stuff that only comes from actually working the material, not reading a manual.
About Integraudio
Most “plugin review” sites today are recycled spec sheets — press releases reworded, features listed without anyone touching the actual software. Integraudio started, and still runs, differently: every plugin, sample library, and piece of gear we cover gets installed, patched into a real DAW, and played with by a real producer before a word gets written.
No top-10 padding. No copy-pasted marketing claims. Just straight, hands-on verdicts on what’s actually worth your money — whether you’re setting up your first bedroom rig or running a full studio.
Where it started
Integraudio launched in 2020 as a blog for music producers and engineers hunting for tips, guides, tutorials, and honest reviews. It was founded by Viliam Sulek, who built the site around a simple idea: share real discoveries about great VST plugins, sounds, effects, hardware, and software — the kind of thing he’d tell a friend, not the kind of thing a manufacturer would pay for.
Vil has since moved on to other projects, but the standard he set stuck. He left the site in the hands of a team that keeps testing everything the same way he did — hands-on, honest, and unsponsored in its verdicts. That’s still the thing to know about Integraudio today: different writers, same rule — if we haven’t used it, we don’t write about it.
What you’ll find here
Integraudio covers the full stack of modern music production:
- Plugin reviews — compressors, EQs, reverb & delay, synths, instrument plugins, and full bundles, tested against real mixing and mastering scenarios
- Free plugin roundups — because not every producer has a AAA-studio budget
- DAW guides — Ableton, FL Studio, Logic Pro, Cubase, Pro Tools, Reaper, Bitwig
- Sound design & Kontakt libraries — for producers building original textures, not just presets
- Hardware — audio interfaces, studio monitors, preamps, synths & keyboards, guitar amps & pedals
- Platform-specific coverage most sites skip — including Linux audio production, where we cover tools like Vital, Surge XT, VCV Rack 2, and LSP Plugins that rarely get a mention elsewhere
- Genre-specific production guides — like shoegaze production techniques, alongside broader mixing and mastering tricks
Whether you’re a bedroom producer building your first template or a working engineer refining a signature sound, the goal is the same: give you a straight answer fast, backed by someone who actually used the thing.
Why trust our reviews
We test every plugin ourselves before writing about it. We’re upfront when a link is an affiliate link — supporting the site never changes the verdict a plugin gets. And when a piece of gear or software isn’t worth your money, we say so, even when it costs us a commission.
Got something worth testing?
If you’re a plugin developer, sample library maker, or gear manufacturer with something you think deserves an honest, hands-on review — or if you’re a producer interested in contributing — get in touch. We read everything, and we still only write about what we’ve actually tried.
