THING is a powerful synthesizer suite that captures the essence of one of the most iconic analog synths from the 1980s. Featuring two distinct instruments, THING 8 (TH8) and THING 5 (TH5), it offers a broad sonic palette ranging from massive pads and deep basses to sharp leads. TH8 provides eight voices of rich, professional-grade sound ideal for crafting complex textures and dynamic performances, while TH5 delivers streamlined simplicity without compromising the authentic character of the original hardware. Available in VST3, AU, and AAX formats, THING integrates smoothly into all major digital audio workstations.

Powered by Modular Unified Synthesis Technology (MUST), THING blends advanced analog circuit modeling with convolution-based techniques to faithfully reproduce the warmth, depth, and dynamic nuances of vintage synthesizers. This hybrid approach incorporates features like nonlinear convolution and time-varying models, resulting in exceptional sound quality and minimal latency. Additional creative tools such as sub-frequency control, superstereo expansion, cross-modulation, and vintage-inspired age control expand sound design possibilities, allowing producers to create everything from lush synthwave atmospheres to cutting-edge experimental textures.

THING also includes a comprehensive effects section inspired by premium audio plugins, offering saturation, EQ, chorus, delay, and reverb to shape and enhance your sounds with clarity and depth. With over 500 expertly crafted presets, this suite provides instant inspiration and flexible starting points for all musical styles. Despite its rich feature set, THING remains CPU-friendly, ensuring smooth performance in demanding sessions. As the first entry in the Marea series, it sets a new benchmark for virtual instruments by combining vintage sonic authenticity with modern production needs.
