Or should I go for the peaky instruments? Just an idea (non tested!) on compression at mastering time: assuming a mapping from voices to bandwidth may sometime be not relevant: that way would cause compression issues on stereophonic takes (piano, cymbals overheads, any ambiance pair). May be switching from the R+L master to an M+S working copy (non-destructive) would help to isolate accurately instruments and apply compression on the M track only ? This is an open question.
