With all 15 modules off, THE_STRIP 3 measures flat to -0.0016 dB from 20 Hz to 20 kHz; with every module on it costs 3.42% of one core, and its saturation artefacts sit 142 dB below the signal.
One instance of THE_EQ can sidechain different bands to different tracks with zero routing, and Linked Bands turn six identical vocal EQ moves into one.
Solo removes the one thing that decides whether a frequency is a problem, the mix; with THE_EQ on every track you see all their spectra in one window and fix clashes without soloing once.
A clean low end takes five steps and no EQ chart: shape the kick tail to about a 16th note, see the kick inside the bass, fix the phase, choose your ducking, verify on the master.
