Is there a free trial?
Yes! All Spitfire Audio plugins on Splice include a free 3-day trial.
Will I own the plugin after my lease ends?
Yes. Once you complete all payments, the plugin is yours to keep — no need to continue using Splice.
What happens if I cancel my Rent-to-Own subscription?
If you cancel, you'll retain access to your Rent-to-Own plan until the end of your current billing cycle. You can resume your plan anytime and pick up right where you left off — all payment progress is saved. Read more here.
Do I get full access to the plugin while I'm renting?
Correct! You will have access to the entire library while you are leasing.
Will Splice match Spitfire Audio sale prices or educational discounts?
Unfortunately, Splice cannot match promotional pricing or educational discounts offered directly by Spitfire Audio.
However, Rent-to-Own offers flexible monthly payments, making it easier to access professional tools without paying the full cost upfront. We hope this makes high-quality tools more accessible for creators year-round.
Do I need the Splice Desktop App to use Spitfire Audio plugins?
Yes, during your lease. You must have the latest version of the Splice Desktop App installed and open at least once every three days while renting. After your lease is complete, the app is no longer required.

Due to large file sizes, we recommend using an external hard drive and allowing time for longer download and load times.
How do I get plugin updates?
Plugin updates are delivered through the Spitfire Audio app.
I'm getting an error when loading my plugin. How do I fix it?
Please refer to our guide on fixing the "Something went wrong" errors here.
Can I get an upgrade discount if I already own a lighter version (e.g., BBC Discovery/Core)?
Unfortunately, upgrade discounts are not available through Splice for Spitfire Audio products.
How many computers can I use the plugin on?
You get two activations per license. You can install on both your main and secondary rigs.
To save time, we recommend copying the installed library from one machine to another using an external hard drive.
