The Usynth STRANGER Black Friday deal takes 61% off this UJAM synth plugin, which comes to $19 until Jan 10, 2027.
STRANGER is a synthesizer plugin built around dark, strange, otherworldly textures. Sound designer and analog synth collector Alessandro Cardinale created it, drawing heavily on his collection of vintage synthesizers.
The maker says the sound world is inspired by the sci-fi series of the last decade.
The sounds are sorted into eleven categories:
The maker describes the aesthetic as warm, retro and saturated, while the categories still cover a wide range.
Add a beat or leave it out, add effects, and UJAM says you're done. It points to ambient, electronic, film scores and game soundtracks as uses, though not only those.
Usynth is made for people who want their own synth sounds without programming a synth. That covers most musicians.
Under the simple interface sits a synthesizer engine that combines virtual analog, wavetable, FM and multisampler. Under the hood you get a broad choice of filter types, routable modulation, envelope and LFO sections, plus a very large number of adjustable settings.
Built-in delay and reverb units, Finishers and a browser are part of the package.
The plugin formats are VST2, VST3, AU 2 and AAX, all 64-bit only. The AU 2 version works only with Logic Pro X and newer.
On Windows, UJAM supports Windows 10 and Windows 11. On Mac it supports macOS Catalina (10.15) through macOS Sonoma (14), on both Intel and Apple silicon Macs, via Rosetta or natively.
The minimum spec is:
If you want to keep the.blob file on an external drive, UJAM recommends an SSD to prevent dropouts. Moving the file to an external drive is not supported, though.
Installation runs through the UJAM App, or you can download an installer file. Authorization works in the app, or by entering your email and password inside the plugin.
The first Usynth title you install also puts the Usynth plugin on your machine. That plugin hosts all Usynth titles, and it needs the latest version of the UJAM App to run.
Yes. The Usynth STRANGER Black Friday deal takes 61% off, so the synth plugin costs $19. The deal ends Jan 10, 2027. STRANGER is UJAM's dark, retro-flavoured synthesizer built for ambient, electronic, film score and game soundtrack work.
It covers Arps, Atmos, Basses, Brass, Keys, Leads, Pads, Picked, Poly, Sequences and Strings. Alessandro Cardinale built them from his vintage synth collection. The maker describes the aesthetic as warm, retro and saturated, with a sci-fi inspired sonic universe.
No. UJAM says the Usynth interface lets you create your own sounds without synthesizer knowledge. Beneath the surface, the synth runs on a larger architecture that blends virtual analog, wavetable, FM and multisampler engines, backed by a big set of filter types, mod matrices, envelopes and LFOs plus several hundred adjustable settings.
Usynth STRANGER comes as VST2, VST3, AU 2 and AAX, all 64-bit only. The AU 2 version works only with Logic Pro X and newer. It runs on Windows 10 and 11, and on macOS Catalina (10.15) to Sonoma (14), Intel and Apple silicon.
