Mackie d8b, bright sounding?

I've been working on a d8b for some years now and I've read that some say it's kinda bright sounding, which also is my own conclusion. It's always a struggle with the knobs to make recordings sound more warm and full. I'd like to hear som opinions on what makes the d8b so bright. Is it only the pres or is it the entire design of the mixer that's to blame?

Encompassing Effects

Im not very familiar with the idea of mastering, but I was wondering if it is common to apply a single effect to an entire track to give it a certain quality or are effects only used on a per instrument basis? Also, where might one find some solid web-based articles on mastering? Lots 'o bad info out there apparently.

Thanks

Brett
