there are some interesting studies along the lines of masking but with rhythm in particular transients. How long, how many and how that affects perception ..... I used to have a slide for a class i thought at a school i apparently never went to , i will try to find it. It is rather new about 8- 10 years old.

Just put Sausage Fattener on all the things.
Simple

Get a nice amp, then, before starting the track, lower all channels by at least 6db, do the track as usual, when proceeding to the mixing part, you will still have a good amount of headroom to mix in. Adjust all levels carefully(of course cut freqs, sidechain, mind the stereo image, transients, comress what you need etc.), get the loudness you want now(avoiding clipping) and get it ready for mastering. Good monitors are a definitive must, learned that the hard way.

This has been mentioned before but oh well.

Yeah this is what I do, I always have my sounds turned down around the -12db to -8db mark. However by the end of completing the song, even without boosting the volumes, I get close enough to clipping for it to be ready for mastering. It's probably because I like to layer sounds a fair bit to make them as unique as possible.

Right then it's just a matter of fine-tuning to sort out the clipping, just find out if any of the sounds are at conflict with each others(by muting some sounds to find where the wild volume jumps happen), check for crazy transients and try eqing further.

Lower or rise certain channels all you want, all that matters is that there is no clipping and that there is some headroom for mastering.
