NI Play Series: GLAZE v1.0.0 KONTAKT

NI Play Series: GLAZE v1.0.0 KONTAKT

GLAZE delivers glossy vocal vibes on tap – from wide stacked chords and pads, to leads, bass timbres, and more. Recorded with a diverse range of live vocalists, it can do up-front vox duties on lustrous pop and silky smooth R&B, as well as processed melodics for hip hop and trap trickery. New Riff and Run presets let you create original vocal runs by combining chopped samples mapped to a scale, and preset macros make it quick and easy to add a little extra seasoning to your licks.

Originally a custom vocal instrument for collaborating with pop artists, GLAZE was built in collaboration with legendary engineers Curtis “Sauce” Wilson and Rochad Holiday after working with the likes of Ne-Yo, Ariana Grande, Will Smith, and Dr Dre.

The Sound Editor page lets you modify the individual sound sources (A/B) – giving you access to tuning, filters, panning, and envelopes.

Customize the effects chain of any preset with the Effects Editor. Quickly swap out effects using the dropdown menu, or change the order via drag-and-drop.

Quickly generate ideas with a flexible 16-step sequencer. You can also modulate up to six assignable macros such as filter or distortion.

Edit the assigned macro controls, control parameter ranges, change macro mappings and create your own custom controls from one dedicated page. The coloured macro dots give you visual feedback on your mappings for maximum ease of use.

Customize the instrument your way from the Settings page. Edit key ranges, adjust velocity curves, and more.
