i got the softube bus processor quite close to the SSL Bus+ reference file from here:Here is an audio demonstration where you can try your own SSL bus compressor plugins.
Little Chill Techno Jam, unprocessed original
Little Chill Techno Jam, Cenozoix Glue VCA, 4:1 ratio, 0.30ms attack, 100ms release, stereo link at 76%, about 6 to 8dB of gain reduction. 16x oversampling + drive (Glue VCA model)
Google Drive links, 16bit 48kHz .wav files. 10.8mb in size.
You can quite easily hear how stable this thing is and how solid it feels. There is no sidechain filtering at all.
SSL+ vs some plugins, Atk 30, Rls: Auto, Ratio 4, HPF 130, GR2-4 (96kHz) uploaded by "Las Vegas" in his yt video titled "SSL G Bus Compressor Shootout 2023 (Hardware vs Plugins)".
The difference - to his test - i made in my own evaluation was setting the knee (he had it on hard knee in his test) to 5 (6 seems roughly equivalent to trackcomp's g-bus) and find a matching saturation setting to the SSL Bus+.
I now tried this also with your Little Chill Techno files and was ok with Softubes performance. I didnt saw the need for another comp at least for now
