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
