Joern Nettingsmeier and Steve Harris gave this excellent talk at ZKM earlier
this year:

This link is too long, sorry.
The general advice from this list has been - don't boost anything unless you
really have to and go easy with those compressors! The other advice I have to
give is play with JAMin for a few days, don't print anything, just listen to
what your ears tell you whilst switching between patches and bypass. It's
definitely one of those 'less is more' situations.

cheers
