nClear Audio – Gluon v1.0.0 is a bus compressor plugin for Windows. Unify your mix, add punch to your drums, or add some body. A standalone approach to British bus compression, with Gluon control.
Your Bus Tires. One Window.
One Gluon is on the drums, another is on the synth, and a third is on the mixing bus. Open Map in any instance to see their settings and levels, then make changes without opening each plugin window.
- See the whole picture. Track names, in and out meters, compression and bypass settings in a single table
- Jump to another instance. Adjust its controls directly, even if its window is closed
- Move together. Global Control lets you make relative changes to all instances, saving their individual settings as a starting point
Find the Right Balance
Apply gentle pressure to the main bus or push harder to create movement. Advanced attack, ratio, and release settings allow you to shape the response, while the automatic release function adapts to the material.
Keep Up the Momentum
Use the range to reduce compression without switching between threshold, ratio, and timing. The gain control arrow and digital display allow you to monitor the progress while listening.
Give the Peaks a Different Shape
Select Hard Clipper, Soft Clipper, or Limiter after the compressor and mixer. Enable the output stage independently of the compressor, even when compression is disabled.
Evaluate the Changes, Not the Result
Press L and play ten seconds of your material. Gluon compares the original signal with the processed one and sets a fixed MakeUp value to approximate their perceived levels. The gain remains constant, so you can listen to the compression result and adjust it by ear.
Fewer Settings. More Listening Options.
Start with factory settings, compare two ideas, undo changes, or transfer settings to another device.
