Not Another Glue-Comp
A classic British console-inspired stereo bus compressor. Analogue transformer saturation, VCA coloring, and oversampling — the glue your mix needs.
Yeah… we get it. The plugin market is drowning in "glue" compressors. Everyone and their cousin has dropped yet another SSL-style bus comp promising to "make your mix stick together like magic." Most of them sound… fine. Clinical. Safe. Boringly transparent. Or they try too hard and end up squashing the life out of your groove.
We felt the same frustration. So instead of releasing "Yet Another Glue Compressor #47," we built Not Another Glue-Comp — the one that actually chases the soul we were missing.
This plugin is our love letter (and quiet rebellion) to the real-deal analog glue you get from those legendary large-format British consoles — the kind where the whole mix suddenly feels like it was tracked live in the same magical room: punchy, cohesive, alive, with that effortless "togetherness" and subtle harmonic polish that makes elements breathe and lock without ever sounding obviously processed.
What makes it different (and, dare we say, better):
- —Musical, program-dependent dynamics that grab peaks just enough to tame them… while letting transients snap through and grooves breathe naturally
- —Rich, analog-flavored harmonic enhancement that adds warmth, density and "stickiness" — the glue that feels organic, not digital
- —That classic console snap on the attack paired with smooth, breathing release curves that enhance musicality instead of fighting it
- —Subtle console-style color that brings depth and dimension to the full mix — everything sits bigger, glossier and more unified… without losing energy or sounding lifeless
It shines brightest on:
- —The mix bus or 2-bus for that final "record-ready" cohesion
- —Drum buses to turn a collection of hits into one unified beast
- —Instrument groups, vocal stacks, synth layers — anywhere you want enhanced glue without flattening the vibe
Controls stay classic and fast: Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release, Makeup Gain — plus a Mix knob for parallel goodness and a few modern tweaks under the hood so you can dial from feather-light enhancement (1–2 dB GR) all the way to characterful pumping when you push it.
If you've tried half a dozen glue plugins and still think "meh, it's missing something… that real console magic" — Not Another Glue-Comp is the one that finally delivers it. No more settling for "close enough."
Because sometimes the market needs one more… but only if it's actually worth it.
No more "another one." Just better glue.
Grab it and hear the difference yourself. Your mixes will thank you.
