Cytomic’s The Glue is modelled after the now-famous SSL-4000 bus compressor. That console’s bus compressor (nicknamed “The Glue”) has become legendary for sonically “gluing” tracks together.
It’s best used on instrument busses, like drums, electric guitars, or (my favorite) background vocals. It’s also commonly used on the entire mix to tighten the whole song up.
If you’re trying to make several recordings sound like one big instrument, try out The Glue.
