 6.25.18  7:08 am this is insane. Do you use a multiband compressor ? If not I think you should look into it
i've tried, but i just can't get the results i need. for example the one i have doesn't let you leave stuff alone. it is a 4 band compressor and by default it is doing a little bit to everything. it won't let you actually ignore any of the bands. it would be simpler to figure out if i could actually just take one point and say compress that point. but i don't have one that does that. i've also been searching for compression solutions to all the manual volume management that i'm doing, but even if i slam the compressors really hard it just sounds crappy and doesn't even take care of everything. each time i search for automatic solutions i just return to doing it manually. my results are getting better and better that way and i'm getting faster and faster that way
