My basic setup is one reverb and one compressor each in it's own aux channel. Dial in each track to these as needed. One 10 band EQ followed by a peak limiter on the main output channel. I will pop a spectrum analyzer in between the 10 band and the Peak limiter to guide my use of the 10 band, getting a solid balance between the frequencies. Don't just rely on the analyzer, trust your ears.

From there if a individual track need something, like a vocal that is to heavy with bass, add an EQ and setup a high pass to clean up the mud. each track gets a look, and proper panning.
