Strata subscriptions include the Wwise VST plug-in suite and the BOOM ENRAGE plug-in, which are both required for all Strata REAPER projects. We also recommend a set of IEM plug-ins, which provide additional encoders and compressors.
All of these plug-ins are available to paid and free Strata subscribers through the Launcher.
The BOOM ENRAGE plug-in provides additional options for sound processing and adjustments. For more information and video tutorials, refer to the ENRAGE website.
While the minimum required version of ENRAGE varies depending on the collection, we recommend you install the latest available version and update it each time a new version is released. To verify the minimum required version for a collection, refer to the Strata Store and select the desired collection to open its product page.
For full documentation on the IEM plug-ins, refer to the IEM website.
Refer to the following sections to complete the plug-in installation:
To install the Wwise VST, ENRAGE, and IEM plug-ins:
Open the Audiokinetic Launcher. Ensure you have version 24.1.0 or later.
Click Log in in the upper-right corner and log in.
In the left navigation pane, select Strata.
The Strata page opens.
In the upper-right corner, click Strata Resources > Install Strata Plug-ins and then click either of the following:
Strata: This option is only available to paid Strata subscribers. It includes the Wwise VST and IEM plug-ins, as well as the full version of Enrage. The paid subscription includes a license for the full version of ENRAGE that is valid for the subscription period.
Strata Trial: This option includes the Wwise VST and IEM plug-ins, as well as Enrage Player, a version of Enrage with reduced functionality. Enrage Player can load and playback the preset settings the collection designer created, but it has limited editing functionality.
In the dialog that opens, click Install. You will be prompted to allow changes to your device.
A progress bar indicates when the installation is done.
After you subscribe to Strata, Audiokinetic sends you an email that contains an ENRAGE license, which you must activate in order to use ENRAGE to modify sounds and effects. If you can't locate the email, log in to your Audiokinetic account, and navigate to [User name] > Licenses & Subscriptions, to find the license under the License(s) section.
To activate your ENRAGE license:
Create an iLok account on the iLok website.
Download the iLok License Manager.
Enter the license in the iLok License Manager as explained on the iLok website and in this video.
After you install the required plug-ins, restart REAPER. By default, REAPER scans for new and updated plug-ins every time it starts. However, if this setting is not at its default state, we recommend that you enable it.
To enable plug-in rescanning:
In REAPER, click Options > Preferences. The REAPER Preferences dialog opens.
Click VST. The VST plug-ins settings options appear.
Select Scan new/updated plug-ins on startup.
