Native Instruments Glaze is a versatile vocal instrument developed for the Play Series, delivering polished vocal sounds that instantly enhance modern music productions. Designed for producers working in pop, R&B, hip hop, trap, and electronic genres, Glaze provides a wide collection of expressive vocal performances, layered harmonies, vocal chops, atmospheric pads, bass sounds, and melodic textures.

Recorded with a diverse group of professional vocalists, Glaze captures contemporary vocal aesthetics while maintaining exceptional flexibility for creative sound design. The instrument includes an extensive library of professionally crafted presets that make it easy to create inspiring melodies, lush chord progressions, and unique vocal-driven arrangements.

One of Glaze's standout features is its innovative Riffs and Runs system, which allows users to trigger chopped vocal phrases mapped across musical scales. This makes it simple to create realistic vocal runs, melodic sequences, and expressive vocal performances without extensive editing.

Originally developed as a custom vocal instrument for collaborations with major pop artists, Glaze was created alongside renowned engineers Curtis "Sauce" Wilson and Rochad Holiday, whose work includes projects with artists such as Ne-Yo, Ariana Grande, Will Smith, and Dr. Dre.

With intuitive controls, real-time performance macros, and a streamlined Play Series interface, Glaze enables producers of all skill levels to add professional-quality vocal elements to their tracks quickly and efficiently.
