Hey guys - I'm still a novice at this whole sync thing and in the middle of bouncing stems for a project and have a technical question.
The stem headroom should be between 3-4db minimum un-mastered. Do you all look at that as the TOP range of headroom for a track? On the drum stem, for example, it's going to increase in volume going into a new section and then maybe drop out for a verse to give it some breathing room.
So am I looking to reach the 3-4db at the loudest part? Or are a few peaks above that range OK if the majority of the track doesn't exceed it?
