Fl studio - (Stems advice)

Hi I've been producing for a long time but I've never mastered or tried to mix my tracks !
Anyway I sent my DEMO to a label that got back to me asking for (stems)

Do I send

Bass
Drums
Vocals
Fx & drops

Etc

Where my projects are very very unarranged and messy it's a little bit of a struggle

If anybody has got some advice for me it would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
 
'Arrangement' - do you mean the song arrangement or the organization of the file in your DAW?

The best advice I can offer with limited info is once your song arrangement is solid as it appears to be if they're now asking for the next step from you. What you would then do is route your tracks to bus / groups and export the audio from each bus: Bass, Drums, Vocals, FX and they'd receive 4 solid WAV/AIF files to work with.

Say you have a vocal track and a doubled vocal track plus 3 bg vox tracks. Route all those to an output bus called "Vocals'. Continue that process for all percussion. Then for guitars. Then for keys. etc. Then you 'bounce' all the audio bus outputs.

However, what do they want the stems for? This one is bugging me a bit as the request needs some follow up from you.

Anyway, sounds promising but it's a bit foggy from your initial post.
