I have an issue to solve, what are your recommendations please:

At the end of my sidechain I have the RN FINIS 3 limiter followed by the MASSEY L2007. Both working slightly of course.

The output ceiling of FINIS 3 is -0.6. The Massey limiter with "mellow" attitude limits already the signal I'm then not touching its threshold and keep it at 0. As well as the output ceiling.

As a result my master still peaks at -0.6. I would like to gain at least 0.3 or 0.4 dB.
Things is my master is complete at that stage and I don't want anything changing the color...What is my best option then ? Adding a L2, pushing the master volume of my pro tools session ? Adding gain with an linear eq ?

Thanks for your help.
