    The best advice I think I was ever given (which may or may not work for everyone) is to move fast. If you spend too much time working on one thing your ears start playing tricks on you. And I've found this to be true. I used to spend all day, sometimes more on mixes and they'd end up sounding like trash. My mixes got way better since I stopped spending so much time on each task.
    Anyone else have the same, or similar experience?

      right, some people are able to do things slowly and meticulously and have good results, but for the creatives like you n me, we do better "capturing the moment." then we have to take little breaks often as to not get too involved and obsessed with small details, aka lost in the rabbit hole.

    I usually use a compressor on the master to squeeze the dynamics a bit more to get me louder when I use the Gain knob and thats all I basically use, maybe ill try a limiter to bring some volume never thought of that cuz I master my own tracks so I tend to have my levels peaking at -3db and importing it into Ozone 9 to get more volume on the maximizer after tweaking some other stuff.

      get YouLean Loudness Meter for free and analyze your master or use as vst in masterchain. Get your master anywhere from -14 to -10 Lufs Integrated rougly. Gonna have to use a limiter to get it there. Use a True Peak limiter and set your ceiling to at least -1dbTruePeak. Other than that, make sure your tonal balance is correct with eq and make sure dynamics and punch are good by using compression or expansion to glue your mix together or make the dynamics pop
