Confirm the technical specification
Ask for the required format, sample rate, bit depth, loudness target if specified and whether stems are needed. Avoid assuming every client wants the same export.
Repeat the agreed delivery list before exporting so there is no confusion about master, instrumental, clean version or stems.
Use clear filenames and folders
A predictable folder structure makes files easier to identify and reduces the risk of using the wrong version.
Group files by song and version, and include concise names such as Main Mix, Instrumental and Stems.
Verify the exports
Check that files open, start at the expected point and contain no missing audio or accidental clipping. Listen to the actual exported files.
Import the final export into a fresh session or media player and audition the beginning, transitions and ending.
Include a delivery note and backup
Tell the client what is included and where to find it. Retain a secure copy according to the project agreement and your data practices.
Send a short manifest listing filenames and formats, and keep the approved session and exports backed up.
