About
the service.

What it is for

When the record is close but one stereo file leaves too little room to work, grouped stems allow more targeted balance and tone decisions.

What to send

Send clearly named groups that start at the same point, along with your current stereo mix. Include notes on the parts of the balance you want to protect or change.

Timing and conversation

Usually around five working days, workload and project size permitting. If the release has a fixed deadline, mention that before the work begins.

If you are unsure which groups to send, ask first. A short conversation can establish whether stems or a full mix is the better fit.

After checkout

Send files and notes by transfer link. Dropbox, WeTransfer or Google Drive are suitable. Your music is sent separately.
