So what do you mean by 'frequency density' ? And yes, compression can (but doesn't have to) affect perception of transients.

As should be clear from the context, 'a mix' means using recorded signals. If the recording was done by someone knowing his trade all tracks and hence all inputs to the mixer should already have normal levels. Then there is no 'gain staging' involved at all. Not even on analog mixers. Of course you can continue to reply to any remark with something vaguely related but completely irrelevant, like the two examples above. It will only serve to confirm the rather poor impression you have made so far. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
