Gone on a diet - 192kbs MP3 -- 153mb.

Oh, and Andrew there was a LOT of headroom on that mix, so I jacked up the
volume, without messing with the dynamics.

One thing that DJs who aren't dyed in the wool studio rats don't do is a bit
of after the fact mastering.  I don't believe in messing with the sound
much,as you're playing other people's productions which have been mixed and
mastered to their satisfaction already.  But it never hurts to get things
pushed up to normal commercial volume levels.

A gift to the world is the W1 limiter.  This is a 'brick wall'
lookahead limiter.   You just look at your waveform and pull down the
threshold so it cuts a few DB off your biggest peaks.  Most of the time it
will be completely transparent, and just raise the average level so you
don't have to max out the volume to hear it on the subway.

It's also a great plug-in to drop on drum tracks to get them embiggened.
