Hi! Its about mix not mastering but i dont find any topic about mix.
Heres my problem: my monitors was crash and now I must work on headphones 
Can anyone say how its sounds on normal sound system: http://www.sendspace.com/file/twuhr0
Its kick (+chh) and bass only.
On headphones it sounds good but You know... its not a monitors...
If anyone can say what is wrong/good (and if need take some tips) I will be very very thankful  |

Is the loudness war over ?
can I go back to not using digital limiters ?
can I throw away that damn multiband compressor too ?
I already have and I have been mastering tracks and I dont see why you have to kill the track just to make it loud..........
I can still get a nice -8 rms with out killing the track.
Just wanted to know what you other engineers think.
