I recorded my dj set this weekend at one of my gigs and wanted to post it on sc and I know a lot of artists like putting their sets into a daw and add a limiter (maybe compression?) but i don’t know what the best settings are for it. Threw a limiter on it on ableton and the dynamics started to sound bad and sound less punchy. What am I doing wrong? Some of my tracks are mp3 too not all wav so maybe that could be part of it but I can’t find this answer anywhere.

Would love to know what other people use for processing raw vocals (plug ins/techniques). I usually use a hard cut eq around 160 and then uad compressor, fresh air, de-esser then just adjust fx but I feel like I’m still missing some things. Drop the sauce
