Whats the best methods and scope tools for mastering dance music, any tips
I'm getting pretty good results with wavelab and my outboard joemeek sc3
but wanted to try some alternative ways of mastering, and seeing as I have never used scope to master with before, I thought it would be a good place to start

Optimaster would be a good place to start... By "mastering" you mean home-brewed mastering, right? Imo it doesn't make sense to apply some eq in the same room where you've already mixed the tunes, since you'll correct your room's flaws more than the actual audio signal. If you work on serious projects, I'll advise to go see a real mastering engineer, both to improve the product as well as to have a feed-back on your room acoustics and mixing skills. I can promise you'll be amazed with what you learn!
