Thorn is a cutting-edge tool for creating cutting-edge sounds. Creating it with the needs of the modern electronic music producer in mind, DS Audio’s goal was to develop a first-class software synthesizer to create punchy, jerky and aggressive sounds that catch the listener’s eye.
A new kind of synthesis for a new kind of electronic musician
Thorn’s sound engine is built on the new Spectral Synthesis method, which gives you complete control over the individual harmonics that go into creating the final timbre. Three harmonic oscillators and an additional harmonic filter allow you to create a wide range of perspective sounds.
Flexible filters for futuristic fun
Two analog multi-mode filters with zero-delay feedback help you tune your timbres and make them stand out in the mix. Use them to modulate any parameter. A set of 9 high-quality effects will help you polish your sound and breathe life into it. For even more fun, use the pattern-based Glitch sequencer to create the glitch effects that have become an integral part of electronic music production.
Limitless possibilities, yet incredibly easy to use
Simplicity, flexibility and efficiency are Thorn’s key principles. Just browse through Thorn’s elaborate sound library (600+ presets!) to start listening to sounds you’ll want to incorporate into your mix right away, or look under the hood to create your own future-oriented tunes.
