Vocals
The 6050 Ultimate Channel Strip EQ modules best suited for vocal and dialog applications include the E300/301, British E, Moo Q and EZ Q. The high pass filter of the EZ Q (and also the British E module) is great for removing vocal plosives, and all these modules have good frequency ranges to fine tune the typical vocal performance. The compression module offerings designed to handle vocals and dialog include the C671, MT2, and iC2 modules. For more articulated performances where significant amounts of sibilance are present, the Over EZ 2 and BC-22 modules work well.

Drums
The EQ '76, FRG EEE and E357 modules are great for drums, like their compressor modules counterparts. These modules four-band configurations are flexible enough to deal with the whole drum kit, or one instrument at a time. The SST '77, FRG 445, and D358 compression modules are great for dealing with drums tracks. Although these modules can be used to really compress the incoming audio, they have enough control and flexibility to produce well balanced dynamic range control.

Keys, Etc.
Any of the 6050 modules are good for keyboards, guitar, and other instruments, but the E300/301 modules balance the flexibility of a modern equalizer with the restrictions of a more classic design. In short, it's hard to screw up a track with the E300/301 modules. Instruments like piano, keyboard, and guitar do well with the 6050 compression modules with more control like the FRG 445 and BC-22.
