Opinions are like #%>€s everybody has one so here's mine smile Most recently I've found that Waves' multiband compressor will make a mix really "pop."

A user here Tommyad put me onto it and I found it for $29. Google Waves LinMB and Adele. There's a great YouTube vid where her producer describes her reaction to it on a mix. I have some info on how to set it up on a mix in about 5 minutes if you ever end up with it. Our last 4-5 projects have nothing for mastering but the following in this order EQ > LinMB > Ozone's limiter.

FWIW
