True A/B/C/D comparison for serious audio work.
Let your visitors hear what you actually mixed.
The Studio Player turns your WordPress site into a true listening room:
your visitors can switch between up to four versions of a track
(for example, mix, streaming master, binaural, or hardware chain) – sample‑accurate and lossless, exactly as you would do it in the studio with your solo knobs or a VST Plugin.
- True A/B/C/D audio comparison
- Sample‑locked switching – no timing drift
- High‑res multichannel FLAC streaming
- Up to 48 kHz / 24‑bit lossless audio
- Reliable playback on desktop and mobile
- Easy integration, backend editor, color palettes
Try it for a minute – you’ll immediately feel and hear the difference ⇒

Typical use-cases
Mix and master portfolios for recording and mixing studios
Before/after comparisons for mastering engineers
„Rough vs. final“ comparisons for producers and composers
Demonstrating outboard gear, preamps, converters, …
Comparing plugin emulations against the original analog hardware
Product pages for hardware and plugin vendors with serious audio examples
Up to 4 stereo versions of the same track are merged into a multichannel FLAC file.
Switching versions simply selects another channel pair at the exact same position – sync by design.
encoding & waveforms
Waveforms are precomputed, so the player can display them without any additional processing during playback.

14 day Trial License
We also offer a 14 day Trial License to test the pro functions on your site.
If the trial is not converted into a paid subscription, your license will expire,
and the Pro features will be deactivated, reverting the plugin to the free version.
Thought its impossible - but this guy managed it well.
Works better then any solution for a professional portfolio player I tried so far. The audio quality and the sync is outstanding. Not the cheapest solution but the best!

What about VAT?

EU businesses can enter a valid VAT ID in “Purchase as business” to apply the reverse-charge mechanism; otherwise VAT may be added at checkout (e.g., for EU consumers or if no valid VAT ID is provided).

Can I move my license/site later (staging → live)?
Yes. License management is handled via Freemius, and you can manage activations in the customer portal when moving or changing domains.
Do I need a special server setup?
No. Standard hosting is enough, but you should have sufficient upload limits, disk space, and a modern PHP version (PHP 8+ recommended). Use HTTPS and clear caching/minify when testing
Which environments does the plugin support?
The plugin works with all modern WordPress installations (5.9+) and standard hosting environments.
We recommend PHP 8+ and up-to-date browsers. No third-party dependencies are required.
Does it work without third‑party services?
Yes. The plugin runs on a standard WordPress site and hosting. No external streaming platform or CDN is required.
Can I use it with page builders / Gutenberg / classic editor?
|thespl_player playlist_id="123"| , which works in classic editor, Gutenberg blocks, and common page builders.
What happens if I cancel my subscription?
If you cancel your subscription, the plugin will continue to work on your site, but you will no longer receive updates or support. Your existing audio comparisons remain fully functional on the frontend; however, you’ll lose access to Pro tools such as generating new waveforms and other advanced backend features.
