Glasis is a virtual instrument built from the delicate, crystalline tones of a vintage glass xylophone, captured with ribbon and tube microphones for a warm, detailed character. It offers three distinct voices: Normal delivers the pure, round-robin-sampled sound of tuned glass bars, ideal for bright melodies and shimmering textures; Stretch uses hardware and software time-stretching to create unearthly, supernatural sustain perfect for ambient pads and cinematic drones; Broken layers two half-functioning walkmans, a broken space echo, and lo-fi pedals for nostalgic, slightly dangerous textures that evoke distant memories. Whether you’re composing ethereal soundscapes, adding a unique lead, or crafting atmospheric beds, Glasis suits producers of ambient, electronic, and film music looking for something beyond ordinary. Its glassy, celestial quality brings a prismatic, otherworldly vibe to any track.
