Never actually owning a G-Series console, I can’t vouch for the accuracy, but comparing it to my other VCA-modelling compressors, even the 6030, it’s got a “smackiness†and a thick low-end that I can’t achieve most other ways. It’s stellar strapped across the 2bus of a rock song. In my recent binge of plugin purchases, I broke down and bought TheGlue, based almost entirely on the recommendation of Dan Clark (of The Dark Clan and ListlessWorks studio). Like offerings from Waves, UAD and SSL, TheGlue is a compressor that models the famous (infamous?) bus compressor from an SSL G-Series console.
