Channel Strip Collection

PreSonus

Channel Strip Collection is a pair of State Space modeled plugin channel strips recreated from classic PreSonus hardware. The collection includes the VT1 (tube channel strip with FET compressor and 4-band EQ) and RC 500 (solid-state channel strip with FET compressor and 3-band EQ), available in Studio One Native Effects, VST3, AU, and AAX formats. The VT1 excels at deliberate tone-shaping with tube warmth and six impedance filtering options, while the RC 500 prioritizes transparent, efficient processing with a fixed 3:1 compression ratio.
