Unglare

Unglare removes harsh glare from cymbals, synths, drums, vocals, and full mixes — without EQ, reverb, or losing brightness.

Phase dispersion pushes harsh frequency content back in the mix by changing when frequencies arrive, not what's there. The result is a smoother, more controlled sound that retains its brightness and energy.

Features:

• Asymmetric saturation for subtle, musical coloration.
• Magnetic hysteresis (Jiles-Atherton model) for warm, analog-style transient interaction.
• Pitch drift to loosen rigidity in static-sounding material.
• Real-time 3D spectrum analyzer.
• Wet Mix knob for parallel processing.
• Controls: Depth, HF Smear, Tube Bend, Drive, Softening, Pitch Drift, Anti-Digital, Bloom, Trans Bend, Stereo, Output, Wet Mix.

Works on individual tracks (cymbals, drums, synths, vocals) and on the mix bus. Lightweight (under 1.1 MB). Pay-what-you-want pricing from $0.
