the sound to focus on the mixing and leveling.
If you boost the input on the compressor, level it down some, and set the output as high as possible without clipping out, you should be able to get at least a decent output. Of course you'll want to EQ before the compression, and you could normalize/maximize the final product just to square it right up to -0db.
This is kind of manual mastering where you might very well have some plugins that'll automatically do it with tweakable preset packages.
