Try 'parallel compression' which allow you to add more oomph without killing your track.
Take one channel, say a kick drum, and use an insert send from that channel and feed it to a compressor. Then take the output of the compressor and bring it back on a completely different channel and viola! parallel compression.
Set your compressor using the following ratios:
Threshold: -50db to -60db
Ratio: 2.0:1 to 2.5:1
Attack: 1ms (take the smallest value possible!)
Release: 250ms
Makeup: 0dB
and then mix it back to the other 'clean' channel from -20dB to +10dB.
