Or use the TRacks Fairchild 670 which is equally as good. But if you want to get more level without touching the EQ too much, try compressing using the LAT/VERT or MID/SIDE mode on the PuigTec Fairchild 670.

I have tried the waves and that works well but don't push it too hard, you'll lose the dynamics, in particular the 元 Ultramaximiser. Yeah I agree, for Metal, the maximiser is good cus it helps keep the transients in tact. My question: Any tip on other maximizers/limiters that can make my mix very loud and very punchy? Not very punchy if you compare to Impending Doom. I'm working on mixes for my band and it sounds like this right now: Humanity's Last Breath - 2012 Pre-Production Teaser #2, New riff ideas - YouTube=" …"]Humanity's Last Breath - 2012 Pre-Production Teaser #2, New riff ideas - YouTube It seems impossible to me that this is so loud yet so punchy. But then I heard this mix: Impending Doom - Murderer (Official Video) - YouTube=" …"]Impending Doom - Murderer (Official Video) - YouTube At first I thought it was pretty obvious that this was happening due to the lack of space for the audio wave to be "spiky", it all is flatted out by the maximizer. I myself have been using Wavesmaximizers to get a REALLY loud mix (which I want) but I loose all the punch that i had in booms and the drums before using it. The mix on this album is just ridiculously punchy and loud. I recently came across Impending Dooms new record "Baptized in Filth". My name is Buster, and I play in metal band "Humanity's Last Breath".
