Right on. Less is more, as they say. What’s the genre/vibe of the album?

Using a ton of distortion/saturation.  Honestly, I noticed that I needed to use LESS stuff.  Seems like I have wayyy too many plugs and sounds lol

Nice. Any exciting new kits, plugins, sounds, etc you discovered the making of this album?

Oh yeah just arranging the album and making sure levels are all similar.  The limiter is there just in case- not really doing anything.  Gotta get the time between songs + fade outs etc. all good!!

So this is how the pros do it! Maybe a dumb question but looks like some of the waveforms already have a decent amount of compression — What exactly are you doing here in this final stage? Just running all tracks through a final mastering chain with some very light limiting? Kinda like color matching a set of photos?
