v1.0.0-beta — What's new ▾
  • True harmonic exciter — tanh saturation on the band above Focus spawns new HF content, not a static EQ boost
  • 1st-order ADAA keeps the generated harmonics alias-clean
  • Air knob: clean high shelf above the Focus point, up to +9 dB of silk
  • Focus knob sweeps the whole HF region 1.5 kHz → 12 kHz
  • Drive controls harmonic density independently of level

Requirements

  • macOS 13 Ventura or later
  • Apple Silicon (arm64) — Intel / Windows coming later
  • ✅ Standalone app (GLOSS.app) — A minor chord test tone
  • ✅ AU (Audio Unit v3) — GarageBand, Logic Pro, REAPER, Ableton Live

Install

  • AU → ~/Applications (open GLOSS.app once to register)
