Which ones do you like and why?
Thinking about ditching most of my other non-FX plugins to work entirely in Console 1 (aka less GAS). With the Gambit Channelstrip I should be settled for some demo-mastering as well as EQ fixes. Or?
Softube Console 1 Channelstrips

I picked up the Gambit on sale, good to have it for sure.
I like all the ones I have, Brit Class A, American Class A and the Grand Channel. Also, the ‘blue’ stuff is great in console 1 as well. Mixing and matching is the best thing for me in the end. Sometimes I do a whole mix with one strip or set of tools, recently used tube tech stuff only in console 1 on a mix. Watch for the sales and build your collection, you probably won’t regret it.

Great! I do have the Tube-Tech Collection which sounds great as well as the American Class A and of cause the 4000. I've been looking a bit to the Grand Channel but not sure if the 4000 with Tube-Techs plus potentially the Gambit (multi-purpose) would be close to doing the same. And then there's the Zener... So much for less GAS

Some of what I have is from the Softube Volume collection, otherwise I probably wouldn’t have the Grand. However, I like the saturation and the ability to choose which device saturates, or mix the 2, but I really like the eq saturation, great on vocals. The Zener didn’t appeal to me, I don’t suffer bad from gas, so I’m pretty happy with what I have. It’s all useful and gets used.
