different flavor in a preamp/channelstrip?

[Surfkat]

Seems to me you got "tubes" and "clean" well covered so now you need "in your face". I'd say an API channel (or lunchbox) should be your next step.

I am also complementing my Voxbox and testing a Portico 5032 and a Chandler LTD-1.
API might be another option. I will take my decision very soon and I will let you know.

Which mics do you use ?

I'm sure there must be more alternatives.

A distinctive color/personality would be very welcome.
Flexibility in the connections and the option to use the compressor and/or EQ sections separately during mixdown would definitely be a plus.
Tubes or solid state, I don't care.
Should be usable on all kinds of sources, but still have some "mojo" of its own. Mostly rock/electronica.

Any suggestions?

As far as separating out access to the different elements within the single channel uint, the only thing I know of that can do that is the Pendulum Quartet II. If there's anyting else that works this way, it's something I've never used.
