In the bottom left-hand corner of each Harmonic Oscillator, a “POS” (position) knob will morph in between frames to create beautifully complex, evolving sounds that defy classification. The “Import Single/All Frames” options in the Command Menu will not import the audio content from WAV files but rather the frequency content of the audio, which is summed and then loaded up into one or all sixteen frames. Thorn has three Harmonic Oscillators, each having their own Preset Selector and a Harmonic Editor with a Spectrum Table made up of sixteen “frames” capable of generating up to 128 harmonics, and a Command Menu with a long list of options that can be used to edit the Spectrum Table in all sorts of fun ways that are ideal for innovative, experimental sound design. Let’s see what this baby can do… The Review Thorn has a few more tricks up its sleeve, including the Harmonic Filter, which applies a “spectrum curve” to the harmonics in each oscillator, and if that weren’t enough, the Harmonic Filter’s output is sent to either one of two independent analog modeled filters and processed through a series of nine high quality effects, in addition to several other impressive features I’ll discuss in further detail.Įnough pointless preamble. Thorn is Dmitry’s second synth, which uses spectral analysis to compute a complex series of harmonics, and that’s just the beginning of the signal chain! Without question, Dmitry Sches is one of the most brilliant developers on the planet, so when he drops a new plugin… well, it’s kind of a big deal.
