Try setting the Range knob in the plugin version to exactly the same numeric value (except negative) you have it set in the Live version and you will most likely get the same result. 'I believe you can hear a difference! Both The Glue and the Glue Compressor device in Live use an identical core algorithm and code, so if they have the same settings they will null with each other (apart from around -120 dB of thermal hiss), so it's most likely you don't have the knobs set to the same values.Īs suggested by mpod (well picked up there!) I recommend first of all checking the Range knob is set to the same value, the Live version goes up to 70 dB when set to the maximum clockwise value, but The Glue goes up to -79 dB then clicks into "Full" mode when at the maximum clockwise position.

So in summary if you don't use the oversampling, or the sidechain high pass, and you always pass audio to the plugin then they are identical. I will hopefully get Ableton to add -6 dB high pass and low pass to the sidechain filter as well as EQ8. I deliberately made the plugin version very gentle since I prefer de-emphasising the lows rather than a harder cut.
CYTOMIC THE GLUE VS ABLETON GLUE FULL
I am trying to encourage Ableton to support more in this regard in the future, but this will most likely take some time.ģ) The sidechain filter on the plugin version is a very gentle -6 dB high pass, the Ableton version supports a full EQ8 single section, which is more powerful in some ways, but the catch is there is a minimum slope it -12 dB for the high pass.
CYTOMIC THE GLUE VS ABLETON GLUE FULL VERSION
There are a few minor differences:ġ) The Live 9 device stops processing on silence to save CPU, I'll be adding this to the full version in the near future, but currently The Glue will still use CPUĢ) The Live 9 device only supports oversampling modes of "Off" and "x2", and this selection is fixed, you can't pick one for render and one for realtime like the regular plugin version. 'The Glue in Live 9 uses the identical DSP in the core algorithm as the plugin version.

I use the Live Glue device on returns mostly as it is. Why could it be I don't like Glue as much as expected? I just acquired a different taste with time? Or could this be the reason? Maybe I'm using it in a non beneficial way? Most tracks as well as busses are about -18dBFS RMS, sometimes a little less. Tell me Mr Krafty Kuts has been smoking something weird please. Instead I use about 25 other compressors/Limiters with a handful in each project. I was on the verge of getting Cytomic The Glue in 2013 and as I got it with Live I never investigated this. DJ Krafty Kuts on " Cytomic The Glue" Computer Music, August 2017 on page 16.Īnd I've been telling myself they are the same and apparently I'm not as fond of The Glue device as I thought I'd be. To my ears, it seems to have a bit more flexibility, a bit more control, and a bit more oomph.” Obviously, I work with Ableton, but I tend to use the old, pre-Ableton version. “As much as I love the Ableton stock plugins, I do think there’s something missing from their version of Glue.
