Options buddy...lots of them especially for mixing vocals. There is a reason that if you look at the racks of guys like TLA, CLA, JJP, MHB, Spike Stent, Alan Moulder, Mick Guzauski, there are so many different units and varied ones. Every mixing engineer has different crayons in his bag he pulls out for different colors needed in a mix. Sometimes one unit suffices, other times you need 2 inseries, sometimes you need a tube chain or a solid state one or a mixture of the 2. Vocals are the hardest because they vary so much based on the songs and keys. Also the sections sometimes need to be treated differently. Your best bet is if you got a an MC77 and a Distressor already look into a tube comp or 2. The EQ's are a personal thing and you have to try a couple to see what you like. Same applies for a solidstate and tube based unit.
Sometimes the same as the comp you need something to start off and do the heavy lifting and something different to finish. No easy or cheap answers here. Mixing vocals is where most of the gear money is invested because they have to sound like a million bucks or bust.
