Ken,

I too want to thank you for taking the time to answer so many questions.

Generally, what is your process for delivering work to mastering?

e.g. Do you put your final mixes through a 2 buss compressor... music and vocal as separate subgroups/stems.. etc... or do you wait for requests of this nature from mastering?

Hi, Real simple answer. I give the mastering engineer what I want to hear on the final product and as far as I'm concerned it's their job to make the final product sound like what I give them.

Cheers
