 | if you want a uniform frequency boost, it's good, i guess. i do it sometimes to mold sound a bit.

 | damn i had some tutorial somewhere where you had a list how the effects on the master channel should look like.
 
 something like:
 
 eq,
 compressor,
 limiter,
 
 dunno about the eq though - sounds a bit stupid for me to
 put it in front of the comp so i guess that my list is quite
 right.
 
 in my case - i just use one multiband compressor (mostly
 waves c4) at the master and that does it for me. i can
 slightly chang the eq with the bands.

 | something i heard for sure is following: 
 if you want to use an eq at the master - make sure you put
 it there after you have fully completed your track. the same
 with compresssor, limiter.
 
 a track must be good sounding without those. when you make
 it sound good and then put those on the master it will sound
 even better.
 
 when you put them on the track at the very beginning you
 have nearly no control over what you are doing, because when
 you solo a track for example and make it sound good, after
 you press the play button it will sound different - because
 the other channels will affect the eq/compressor too.
 
 keep that in mind
