use very precise eq to boost or cut the freg. u think are to low or hig in level, then some loudness maximizer,... multiband comp. too , but there u must do it very carefully,... dont process in our most sensitive range,..btwn 3-4 khz ...if u do it in wrong way ..mistakes are audible.....etc..

programs:soundforge(i use this one), wavelab,..

In general it's better to not boost anything. If you eq the right way this is not essential for a clear sounding. Also a failure is it to use comps where you just don't NEED it. This punchy sh!t realy sucks imo.

no it doesn't

and it's all about what u hear/like - theres no right and wrong in my opinion.
