god damn! that's going to be a nice setup. as for the pre, i hear great things about the grace 101. as for the mixer i have a mackie 1202 and it is good, you could even use the pre's in the mackie to change up the color in your sound. the mackie pre's aren't as good as the grace but since you might have it, it's pre's would be helpfull. the mackie's pre's are transparent.
 
You're right

I joined about five months ago but I haven't been active for a few years. Been workin on my beats and just woodshedding my producing. I found tons of help here though.

I am curious about the compressor plug-ins myself. Looks like your well on your way to some decent gear. The Blue Baby Bottle mic..Have you or anyone used one of those for kicking raps..I got an apex and its not bad but I was looking into the three mics on your list. The only one I haven't heard much about was the BBB..

The Grace 101 is a good mic pre...I am getting one of those pieces shortly..
