I got the gate and rapture (which is seriously $40 more than I had to spend, but could not pass it up). i skipped the compressor. Like most people here, I have too many compressors. I figure the 4 other pro channel compressors I already have should keep me busy for a bit. Gates are simple but very useful. I find myself having to record in environments with lowl-level background noise and a gate works much better than noise reduction plug-ins for such things.
On the production side of things, layering a bass line with a deep sub made with a sin wave via a sidechained gate creates absolutely filthy bass.
