Your key LABS questions, answered.

Hi Dupa,

We've heard your questions about what's next for LABS, and we want to make sure you've got the answers you need. From your existing projects to your favourite sounds, here's what you need to know.

And a little reminder: your 3 months of INSTRUMENT free are ready whenever you are.*

*The three-month INSTRUMENT offer is available until 31st October 2026. After the free period, your subscription renews at the standard monthly price unless cancelled. Restrictions may apply. You can cancel at any time.

Will my LABS projects still work after 31st October?

Yes. Existing projects should continue to open and play as they do today, and installing INSTRUMENT won’t replace LABS in those projects.

After 31st October, the legacy plugin will no longer receive updates or support, and LABS content can’t be installed, repaired or redownloaded through that plugin. Because of this, we can’t guarantee a legacy LABS setup can always be restored on a future computer.

Will I still be able to use LABS for free?

Yes. You don’t need to pay to keep using free LABS content that is already installed, and the same free LABS packs remain free inside INSTRUMENT. Premium LABS content is available as part of an INSTRUMENT subscription.

How do I move my LABS sounds to INSTRUMENT?

You don't need to manually move everything over. INSTRUMENT can automatically detect your existing LABS packs, ready to import in just a few clicks.
