Cytomic 'The Glue' Compressor

Something like this?

I just spit out my coffee and I wasn't even drinking any!!!

But seriously, I am aware of how quite a few hosts don't handle narrow plugins and I'm trying to come up with a better layout for v1.1. I may end up going for a 2U or 3U half rack style instead of the X / Euro rack type form factor it currently is. On modern high resolution screens it's also a little small. I've got to add better preset browsing and a dual mono button / knob for v1.1 so it's a good time to fix the narrow gui while I'm at it

That would be great Andy. I'm sure you'll come up with a great solution, I'm glad you're already thinking of some possible options.

I think the GUI looks great already but must admit I like the look of this too, good work, a possible alternative maybe?

Perhaps the mix knob could be bigger as well.

Quite nice! But I'd prefer meter on the left side.
It looks somehow "wrong" on the right.
Just IMHO

Why change the look? I think it looks perfect as is. works for me.

Andy, I was just wondering if there was a possibility of offering alternative GUI sizes, or maybe a horizontal version of The Glue?

In Logic there's a bit of extra space after loading The Glue due to the plug-in menu. This can be fixed by hiding the plug-in menu and then resizing, but if there was a horizontal version or a larger version of the GUI that would be excellent.

This isn't a huge deal, just kind of a minor annoyance. I figured that it wouldn't hurt to ask.

andy, honestly, this is the way to go. anthony nailled it. just my 2billion cents.

+1

This layout is FAR BETTER to sit on a computer screen.

But the mix knob should be a little better.

And I'll keep the meter at center.

Love it !

+1 for the Horizontal version

Don't worry DubFifeSD, I take the layout and ergornomics of my plugins very seriously and will not mess needlessly with it.

I need to fit in an extra control for the dual mono operation and improved preset browsing so the existing gui will have to change a little anyway. While I am at it I will try to minimize the blank space that both Logic and Pro Tools add to the border of The Glue.

I will make sure to preserve the current ergonomics where the most important controls to have near the meter will remain there: the Threshold, Makeup and Range.

Thanks to djanthonyw for putting in some time for an alternative layout, but please don't consider that his design is anything official. I will post official screenshots when they are ready
