iTunes ~> View ~> Show Equaliser

Well whenever I'm working on a project in GB, I use the Master Track and apply EQ to it and this helps boost the overall sound. I've never had any problems with with low volumes that I couldn't fix by tweaking the Master Track and added effects in the far right window that is normally hidden but will appear when you click on this button (see pic below).
