When to use it

A quick all-in-one strip for vocals, guitars or drums when you want EQ, compression and gating in one window. It has no de-esser or saturation; for those, Scheps Omni Channel is broader. Unlike the SSL channel strips, it does not take a console-style approach.

Genre-neutral; it suits general tracking and mixing work.
