Interesting. I've heard lots of very good things about PSP Vintage Warmer, and Ozone for that matter. I've d/l the demo of Ozone but don't really understand the process that's happening so I thought i'd give it a bash myself before spending money on software when I'm not entirely sure of it's use.
So you're saying use a compressor to increase the volume overall rather than using a limiter to get it right up to 0db, but having a limiter last on the master chain just to catch anything?
I tend to use the native Cubase compressor for everything, mainly because sidechaining is a pain in Cubase when you don't use that one and partly habit. I suppose a dedicated compressor will give me better results when it's not being used just for ducking. Something to think about.
I've heard the term buss compressor as well, I assume this is a beast specifically suited or designed for mastering?
