[quote quote=19997]Another thing that can ease the need for compression and EQ is automation.[/quote]
This is something I've just recently discovered (By "recently", I mean today!). Always tried to control using just compression, but ended up having the track sound "too compressed". Found out that by using automation first, the compressor doesn't have to work so hard and sounds more natural.
