Jamey,
Using a house clock can clean up this smearing quite a bit. I clock from
Mytek and I have noticed a marked improvement in this situatiion. If the
project isn't mixed *hot* (ie channel and submix faders not redlining) the
mix comes out sounding much more like the contemporary DAWs, and then you
can just strap NoLimit across the mix bus and crank it to create whatever
amount of *hugeness* you desire.
Cheers,
Deej
