The Underwater 2 Black Friday deal takes 80% off Thenatan Audio's filter, lo-fi and drive plugin, bringing it to $10 until Nov 19, 2026.

Underwater 2 is a multi-effect plugin built to give you the drowned, mellow Toronto vocal tone in one window. It is a full rebuild of the 2020 original.

The maker says the sound that made version one a staple is kept as is. Everything around it was rebuilt.

What does Underwater 2 do?

The maker pitches it as a replacement for stacking several plugins. A few tweaks get you the effect, and the panel shows what it is doing while you work.

The workflow is three moves:

  • Raise the Filter knob until the water climbs over the head
  • Choose a Slope to set how hard the filter cuts
  • Adjust Redux and Drive until it feels right

That gets you the underwater effect without building a signal chain from separate plugins.

What controls are on the panel?

The on-board effects and controls:

  • Low-Cut switch: removes everything under 80 Hz
  • Filter knob: a modeled filter with smooth resonance
  • Slopes menu: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84 or 96 dB per octave, across eight filter stages
  • Redux knob: a lo-fi degrade unit with bit and sample rate reduction
  • Drive knob: algorithm distortion from 0 to 36 dB
  • Master Output knob

The filter section is where most of the shaping happens. Pick a steeper slope and the cutoff closes harder, and 96 dB per octave is the steepest of the eight.

Automation is supported, so you can ride the Filter knob across a section of your track. Bypass works by hovering over the face and clicking, and every blue element on the panel turns grey.

How does the interface work?

The whole interface is now vector. According to the developer, the format opens without delay, stays tiny in file size, and keeps its sharpness whatever the display or dimensions.

To resize, drag the bottom-right corner. Ctrl+click returns it to 100%. A tooltip strip explains whatever your mouse is over.

The artwork is tied to the controls and your signal. The maker says every graphic on the panel does a job. The river climbs with the Filter cutoff, the eyes stay shut during playback and open their lids when the input goes quiet, and the tears track input level per channel, left eye for left and right eye for right, spilling out on sharp attacks. Drive sets off the burst of dots, while Redux turns the teardrops into pixels as it increases. That lets you read level, channel activity and how far Drive and Redux are pushed straight from the panel, with no separate meter needed.

Underwater 2 has no connection to OVO / October's Very Own, Drake, or any other artist named here, nor to the companies and labels that represent them.
