On the subject of mixbus compression, I've been watching a lot of Eric Valentine's youtube channel recently, and he has turned me on to the technique of leaving the vocal out of the mixbus compression completely. So you have a music bus that gets compressed and the vocal goes straight to the master output.
I'm finding it works really well, because it's one less moving part to account for with mixbus compression, and it keeps the vocal right where you want it.
