Thanks for dropping back in and the compliments. I think I could ease up on the boosts during the choruses... I went with three dB which I realize is pretty severe :-p but I did it with the idea that this song is rather static, as is a good chunk of music in this style, so I felt like a severe kick in the seat might heighten the excitement... although is clearly makes it less of a dance track and more of a listening experience, but I told ya I was going to rework it in my style

as for phase linear EQ, I think it thins the bass because it's not meant for that sort of precision filtering... even narrowband cuts will subtly dip the surrounding frequencies, although the graphics will lie to you. for a while I was highpassing primarily with stock standard parametric eqs and never getting them quite as clean as I wanted... but these suggestions are leading me down new avenues and I'm finding some more appropriate moves for those situations.

thanks again, guys. I think I learned a ton (the hard way but the good way) suffering through this beast of a mix
