Theres no such thing a mic pre designed for the whole mix, maybe look at Neve 8816 Summing mixer or Tube Tech.

I don't use the black version , so my 2-1176 (6176) is everything I need as limiter. This version is not so agressive . Or simply used for its color and sound (ratio 1:1) .

My chain starts with the recording stuff and finished with the mastering zone . It's like I'm double recording the tracks , which is double sonic and much more harmonics and feedback effect in the same direction , step by step . I'm always in the mix , 1176 is the perfect limiter and then a nice piece in my chain .
