Sorry, I was answering holotropiks question, didn`t mean to hijack your thread with that.

Most (ie virtually none) labels won`t spend loads of money on a mastering engineer, you`ll just get a vinyl master, hopefully by someone paying attention.

But mastering is about fine tuning.
blatant large adjustments shoudl already be fixed before it hits the engineers station.

I wasn`t saying you aren`t doing your job mate, I was kinda using the collective "you" as in the collective "we"


however, back to your tune, sorting out your highs shouldn`t **** anything up or make a domino effect, it will however, make it sound nicer.
