I'd go with parametric, or something tunable myself.

The ART Prochannel II and the PreSonus Channel strip both look really nice and the price is the same, but both of my Trons are going through a Joe Meek MC2 compressor, so the ART and PreSonus have more features than I really need. Maybe a PreSonus Blue Tube would be more my speed.

How about a graphic equalizer? Is it worthwhile having on an M400?
