Hello Composers! Mike here, with a quick guide on the Best Channel Strip VST Plugins. =)
A channel strip plugin is basically the software version of one track on a classic big analog mixing console, where you had input gain, compression, EQ’s, drive/character etc.
The purpose is to have all the essential tools to shape and design the sound of your individual tracks in your music production.
But which Channel Strip VST Plugins should you choose? Well, here is my complete list of recommendations for you (in no particular order):

I love it!
Alan MeyersonGrammy-winning scoring mixer (Mulan, Dark Knight, Gladiator, Shrek, the Pirates of the Caribbean …)
This is a fantastic idea. A full channel strip with an assortment of audio flavours, all gain-matched so you can switch around them and really hear what the different modules are bring to your sound. And because it’s made by PSP, the audio quality is as good as it gets. Can’t recommend it highly enough.
Dom MorleyGrammy-winning producer, mixer and engineer (Amy Winehouse, Mark Ronson, Nick Cave, Adele …)
PSP surprised us with a “500 series / modular” wonder! The rack has preamps, eqs and side-chainable compressors from different eras, expander, gate, and a truly amazing side-chainable ducker! A VERY fast limiter, de-esser, and even a stereo widener. Even with all that, from what I noticed, they may be just scratching the surface with what’s yet to come, because as the name implies, the possibilities are truly infinite! Ah, and the sound, as analog as we could expect from anything PSP. Amazing. Truly amazing.
Enrico De PaoliGrammy-winning engineer(Djavan, Marcus Miller, Ray Charles, Leonard Cohen …)
The PSP InfiniStrip is an awesome plug-in with super fast workflow and great sound. It’s incredibly versatile and I LOVE how it allows me to toggle thru different versions of each module and and keeps the settings, this makes it incredibly easy to compare EQs and compressors etc. Great job as usual guys!
Ian Boxill Grammy and Golden Glob-winning mixer and engineer(Prince, Quincy Jones, Tupac Shakur, Janet Jackson …)
The PSP InfiniStrip has the perfect mixture of top rate analog gear sound quality with an intuitive & easily configurable GUI. … I love the 80s & 70s pre’s, and who would have thought a 90s ADC pre would be desirable, -I had a snare track that had been recorded with a little too much of a vintage/gooey vibe that came back to life with the 90s pre. I could easily mix an entire album with just the InfiniStrip (along with a few verbs & delays).
John KurzwegMultiPlatinum record producer and engineer (Creed, Puddle of Mudd, Eagle Eye Cherry, Godsmack …)
PSP InfiniStrip it brings you in a new workflow experience thanks to the combination of my favourite PSP flavour in one killer plugin. Perfect for live mix and console feeling.
Jurij Gianluca Ricottimusician, composer & sound engineer (Andrea Bocelli, Ennio Morricone, Ariana Grande, Tony Renis …)
I’ve already used PSP InfiniStrip and I absolutely love it. It is an amazing plugin. I love the modules, it is super easy to work with them and they sound amazing. You guys did a fantastic job.
Marcus Siepenguitarist, songwriter (Blind Guardian, Sinbreed, Demons & Wizards)
I absolutely love what you have done with this thing!
Ragnar Zolbergsinger-songwriter and a multi-instrumentalist (Ragnar Zolberg, Pain of Salvation, Sign, Sonr Ravn)
It’s taken over 7 years of painstaking research and development by the talented PSP team, but its really worth the wait ….this is a very powerful addition to any producers DAW set up…..and for those who like to track using plugins the BIG plus with infinity strip is the ZERO latency — it is a blessing I’m also thrilled to have been asked to contribute a few of my GOTO presets…enjoy!
Steve Levineproducer, mixer and engineer (The Clash, Culture Club, The Beach Boys, Motorhead, Ziggy Marley …)
It’s FANTASTIC. Really beautifully laid out. Wonderfully practical application with a LOT of creative potential.
