Stem Mastering

Somewhere in between mixing and mastering, stem mastering allows me greater control of the sound and might be the best option for your project. For most projects 4 stems is perfect: Vocals, Drums, Bass & Everything else. If you're interested in stem mastering talk to me for the details.
