Berlin, May 2, 2024 – Native Instruments today released Glaze 2, a next-gen pop and hip-hop vocal instrument that offers lush vocal harmonies, textures, and chord progressions at the touch of a key.

As the follow-up to one of NI’s most-loved instruments, Glaze 2 brings modern vocal heat straight to your studio. Now featuring even more voices and the slick sounds of the talkbox, Glaze 2 brings the flair you need to set your tracks apart with smooth vocal pads, and brilliant riffs, runs, and hooks.

Glaze 2 was crafted in collaboration with Curtis 'Sauce' Wilson and Rochad Holiday – engineers behind the sounds of Ne-Yo, Ariana Grande, Will Smith, and Dr Dre.
