a lot of times I am mixing stuff that I did not record.

often a track needs a little "something" from an analog insert and while I have some nice tube EQs and comps, sometimes that's too much something.

Often I run through the EQs on bypass, but re-preamping has a similar result- a bit more subtle.

I would compare it to using a saturation plug-in. (I mostly use the tube preamps) A little "something".
