SUMMER Makes Stems Add Up Again
SUMMER rebuilds exported audio stems so they are intended to recreate an approved full mix when played together.
Field notes
The documented workflow starts with stems bounced through the complete mixer chain, including bus processing, sends, shared effects, and master processing, with normalization disabled. The page presents 30-second FLAC comparisons plus WAV source excerpts and a ZIP containing the full mix and both stem sets. Its central verification gesture is phase inversion: the site states that the reconstructed stems cancel against the full mix to digital silence when played together.
