Brain Black Friday pricing from Thenatan Audio takes 87% off this generative soft-synth, which comes to $10 until Nov 19, 2026.
Brain builds new patches at the click of a button. Thenatan describes it as an intelligent synth, developed over several months with award-winning sound engineers.
The maker says an algorithm called XY-DNA does the work. It combines oscillators, envelopes, LFOs, pitch and filter settings into a fresh patch each time you hit the button.
Thenatan lists pads, moving keys, basses, leads and textures as the sounds it can produce from a single click. If you start sessions by scrolling presets, this swaps that for randomised patches.
A built-in preset browser lets you export and share presets and banks. Factory presets are included.
The synth section covers the usual signal path:
The interface is scalable HD, with an audio visualizer that animates in real time.
Brain has its own effects section, so a patch can sound finished without a chain of inserts. Each effect has its own control:
Set Color toward the dark end for a dulled top, or push Lofi and Sugar for grit before the tail of the reverb. Thenatan calls Brain comprehensive, intuitive and luxurious.
Brain is a soft-synth from Thenatan Audio, listed in the Synth Plugins category. If you want one instrument that handles patch creation, voicing and finishing effects in the same window, that is what this one is built around.
Yes. Brain by Thenatan Audio is 87% off for Black Friday, which brings it to $10. The deal ends Nov 19, 2026. Brain is the generative soft-synth that creates new patches at the click of a button.
XY-DNA is the sound-design algorithm Thenatan says sets Brain apart from ordinary synths. It combines oscillators, envelopes, LFOs, pitch and filters to generate new patches, which the maker presents as a source of endless inspiration.
Brain has 2 oscillators, up to 12 unison voices, amp and filter envelopes, pitch and filter LFOs, a virtual keyboard and Poly/Mono/Glide controls. It also includes factory presets, a preset browser and a Master FX section.
The Master FX section has a high-definition reverb with Reverb and Room knobs, a tempo-synced stereo delay, and Color, Lofi, Sugar, Filter and Width knobs. A Master Output knob sets the final level.
