http://www.weiss.ch/ds1/ds1.html You don't "need" the DS1 in order to do this technique. But just with everything else, YMMV. In the end it's not the gear, it's your ears that make something sound good. Being able to hear WHEN you should use parallel compression on the stereo mix and when you shouldn't is more important than how you go about doing it.

Re: calling all mastering gurus
You can insert the same compressor, eq...(bypassed), on the uncompressed bus to compensate for latency.

Re: calling all mastering gurus
An excellent source on this topic is "Mastering In Pro Tools" with Phil Magnotti. Worth every penny for the video download. Probably the best video I've purchased on the topic of PT. I was glued to this video on first run though and reference it often. An great foundation on mastering...

I've always felt that a big part of getting a hot master was probably about reeling in certain frequencies in the initial mix. I'm trying to learn how to recognize/hear the "problems". I appreciate all of the feedback.

Re: calling all mastering gurus
In order to get things loud and still hold together, I think the single most important issue is frequency and energy distribution followed by gain staging...being able to hear what is going on through a full range system... I would put limiting near the bottom. ymmv.
