What is stem mastering?

Stem mastering is a way to get an improved mixdown and balance on your master. By providing the stems of your project, I am able to shape the sonic quality of your track better to fit your desired sound. This allows for things muddy sections that are inter-twined to be cleaned up bus by bus, rather than applying a single fix over a wide swath of sounds. We can often get a bit more consistent loudness and tone by applying some mixing to each of the stem’s before summing them back to the premaster. With this purchase, I will contact you within 24-48 hours (quicker if available) and provide you with an industry-grade master (in all major formats and sample rates) of your track that brings out the best of your project.

For highest quality results, send your stems with the following properties:

• 48kHz recommended (can send higher or lower, will use whatever is provided)

• 1 second of silence at the beginning

• Full tail at end of track (do not cut the tail off during export)

• -6db of headroom

• No limiters on master channel

• Lossless format (.wav, .aiff)

• 24-bit or higher bit depth
