no mastering. A few recorded sets ago sucked ass due to volume levels, but I let that be a learning experience. Rely on your GAINS!

Use your gains as mentioned earlier, but that's more to control the actual volume of the mix.

I like to stick it through my BBE sonic maximizer just to give it a little more punch and to make it perhaps stand out from other demos.

Cheers

BBE Sonic Maximizer is a piece of hardward - mine cost around $150 is I remember correctly.

Is this the same or similar to hard limiting?

Cool Edit has a hard limiting feature which will basically increase the sound level of the file a certain amount and cut off any sound that goes above the level that you have specified. I've found that this doesn't give any distortion but it adds some kick to the music.

bbe is simalar to a parametric eq for 2 positions........it boosts a certain center point on the top/bottom.....i believe round 80hz and 16k

i use a compressor to do what your say'n......kinda tightens the bottom end up..

Well I'm talking about adding a bit of punch and clarity, for levels I just work my gains while mixing it.
