One thing I'd 99% buy at launch is a FabFilter channel strip.
I’m not a fan of channel strips because there’s usually 1-3 things I wish were something different, or I prefer a different plugin for one of the features, but then the placement (pre/post channel strip) is not right making the channel strip pointless.
And quickly swapping between tracks all having that same window.
I used to dislike channel strips because they lack the flexibility of FX-chains, but they make up for that with a faster, more streamlined workflow (which sure took me quite a while to appreciate).
