So I have the BBE 482i Sonic Maximizer. I've easily set it up on individual instruments.

But I'm having a tough time figuring out how I can get it across an entire mix. Supposedly it's fairly easy on analog gear, but I just feel kind of lost.

I have a 003 rack+ and am running PT LE 7.4.

Can someone give me a hand please? Thanks.

You don't mention your monitor speakers. BBE is not needed if your speaker monitors have a good frequency response. Don't use it to brighten or beef up mixes unless your monitors, PA system, DJ system etc sound too muddy. BBE is a phase/amplitude integrity correction unit and shouldn't be used for mastering and even for mixing if - again - your monitoring system is accurate or at least in that vicinity.

Hope this helps,
