for example this tiny little fade at the end of the sub here?
2 db of headroom.
(the main snare is pushed forward, that's why it's like that (the difference is very audible even if it doesn't look like a lot))

micro peaks everywhere. this is happening across the entire track.
buss limiting this safety clipper that "but anon told me ctz..."

no this is priority and it's much cleaner AND all of that can be pushed *much* further once you get all of this straight.
