About Glow
One-liner
Glow is a 6-voice 80s chorus synth for iPhone and iPad, as a standalone app and an AUv3 plugin.
Glow is a 6-voice analog-style polysynth for iPhone and iPad, built around the warm 80s chorus pad: slow PWM strings that shimmer, deep sub basses and soft brass.
It runs as a standalone app or as an AUv3 plugin in hosts such as GarageBand and AUM. Glow ships with 32 presets and loads classic 80s SysEx tone banks, so players can bring their own sounds. Three panel looks, one sound engine. Glow is made by Maxcommerce, a one-person studio in the Netherlands.
