I am sure that SOMEBODY will violently disagree, but the BBE Sonic
Maximizer Plug-in can do wonders especially if it can be used on

It's not about the sound of the instrument being recorded. It certainly
doesn't have anything to do with the way the instrument is played. The
arrangement of the song doesn't even factor into it.
It's not about using mics that are appropriate for the recording. It's
not about mic placement. It's not even about mix decisions.

Heck no, it's the SOFTWARE.
