It would be almost impossible without hearing the unmastered material. How would you know 'tone' what is in the mix and what is the mastering?

Having said that, the unmistakable sound of the L2 is written all over many commercial CDs. I can sometimes hear a Sontec 432, Massive Passive, or HEDD unit on some albums, generally only if I know the ME and their style.
