/ STEM MASTERING
Stem mastering that finishes your mix.
Stem mastering sits between mixing and mastering. You send 2 to 8 grouped stems — drums, bass, music, vocal, FX — and I balance, tone-shape and master them as one coherent record. It's the fastest way to get surgical control over the master bus without re-opening the mix, and it's especially powerful for house, techno and dance music where the low-end relationship between kick and bass makes or breaks a track.
/ HOW TO PREPARE STEMS
Clean stems, clean master.
The cleaner the stems arrive, the more I can shape on the final bus. Keep all stems the same length, exported from the same start point, with no master-bus processing.
- ✓Export 2 to 8 stems (typically drums, bass, music, vocal, FX)
- ✓All stems same length, same start point (bar 1)
- ✓Bypass master-bus limiter and bus compressor
- ✓Keep individual channel processing committed
- ✓Leave 6 dB headroom on each stem
- ✓Name clearly: Artist - Track - 01 Drums.wav, 02 Bass.wav…
- ✓Send your stereo rough mix as reference
