Stem Mastering is a process that offers greater control over the sonic shape and balance of your music. It allows the engineer to not only shape the overall tonal balance of a track, but also to go even deeper into each component part to help achieve an even better result. Each individual stem is treated with a combination of different processes and effects in both the analogue and digital domains to help a track achieve its absolute potential

In the below masterclass, Oli deconstructs composer Santhosh Narayanan’s track Karuppi, taken from the film Pariyerum Perumal, to give you an insight into his process when stem mastering and how beneficial it can be for a track.
