I think that probably can go in a Channel Strip application since it's usually just a single band compressor. In the case fo the Waves Channel Strip I pointed out earlier it supports a number of different configurations, but the main two path choices look like this: input->EQ->Compressor->Gate->Gain or input->Compressor->EQ->Gate->Gain and then side chain control for both the compressor and the gate separately coming for selectable places inside the plugin with filters to control what gets into the actual side chain signal. The only real advantage of a Channel Strip is that everything you need is there in a single screen. You don't have to call up 3-4 different plugins to look at the things you want to work on. It also allows side chain control in ways that aren't very easy using separate plugins. Anyway, I don't know if this 1023 band EQ, as part of a channel strip or even by itself, makes sense as a plugin. It was just a comment that seems to have gained far more air time than I ever intended. - Mark
