The CARBON Black Friday deal takes 77% off UJAM's distorted guitar instrument, bringing it to $29 until Dec 9, 2026.
CARBON is a virtual instrument for modern, sound-designed guitar parts. UJAM says it built it because nothing like it existed. It covers everything from tightly quantized accents in electronic music to big riffs in game soundtracks to quiet textures in film scores.
It is a Virtual Guitarist that plays organic, distorted and processed rhythm guitar. UJAM calls it the first Virtual Guitarist with an Instrument Mode.
The maker describes the sound as wild and heavily distorted, yet precise and controlled, sometimes even synth-like.
UJAM says the digital effects can be pushed hard while the underlying texture stays organic and raw. The instrument stays playable and musical, so it sits next to synths, drum machines, orchestras and live bands.
The Layerer sets how big and wide the part feels. You can run a single mono riff or stack all four guitarists into what UJAM calls the quadro Wall Of Doom.
The maker describes the range as heavy and in-your-face when pushed, light and delicate when dialed down. Use it for an instant burst of raw power or for a slowly evolving build under a scene.
The plugin comes in VST 2 and AU 2 formats. The AU 2 version only works with Logic Pro X and newer. It also supports MIDI and Native Instruments NKS.
On Windows you need Windows 7 or later, 64-bit only. On macOS the supported range is 10.14 to macOS 14, 64-bit only. UJAM does not support earlier versions, though they may run.
It arrives as downloadable installer files. You authorise inside the plugin with your ujam.com email address and password.
If you move the.blob files to an external drive, UJAM recommends an SSD to prevent dropouts. For current VST3, AAX and Apple Silicon support, the UJAM website has the up-to-date list.
