————–[Channel Strip VS MIO Strip]————–
The EQ and Gate in MIOStrip are very similar to the EQ and Gate in ChannelStrip. The Compressor, however, is a completely different beast than the compressor in ChannelStrip. While it is capable of generating the sounds that the ChannelStrip compressor was capable of (the overblown huge drum buss sound that was pretty unique to ChannelStrip), it is also capable of operating as much more “standard” compressor with more control than the ChannelStrip compressor offers. It has an adjustable knee control (ChannelStrip was always soft-knee and always compresses — even if the threshold is set to 0), and it also can capture transients with fast attacks in a way the ChannelStrip compressor cannot.
