APPENDIX D: Music and Effects Stems Specifications and Delivery Requirements PREFACE:

Music and Effects stems are currently being created on the theatrical mix stage as a precursor to the mixed, fully filled M&E, but are not delivered. This formally adds M&E stems to the audio deliverables.

M&E stems are to be delivered in addition to the mixed fully filled M&E, multichannel optionals and fully filled Effects Stem.

M&E Stem configuration should match the main Stem configuration of the Domestic mix, with the Fill M&E stem taking the place of the Dialog stem

DESCRIPTION:
M&E Stems are the individual stems that make up the fully-filled music and effects element. The M&E stems are

defined as follows:

Fill M&E Stem: This is all of the fill that needs to be added to the music and effects stems to create the filled M&E. It is typically the dialog stem with all dialog muted (leaving only production effects), plus any fill that was created to cover areas where production effects were lost when the dialog was muted.

Group M&E Stem: This is the Group stem with any specifics removed (i.e. discernable callouts, etc.). This is delivered only if a Group stem was created for the title.

Crowd M&E Stem: This is the Crowd stem with any specifics removed (i.e. discernable callouts, etc.) This is delivered only if a Crowd stem was created for the title.

Walla M&E Stem: This is the Walla stem with any specifics removed (i.e. discernable dialog, etc.) This is delivered only if a Walla stem was created for the title.

Foley M&E Stem: This is generally the same as the regular Foley Stem, but may have been updated depending on decisions made during the M&E process. It is renamed and delivered with the M&E stems

Background M&E Stem: This is generally the same as the regular BG Stem, renamed and delivered with the M&E stems

Effects M&E stem: This is generally the same as the regular FX Stem, renamed and delivered with the M&E stems

Music M&E stem: This is generally the same as the regular MX Stem, renamed and delivered with the M&E stems. However, in some cases this may be modified to remove vocals or an entire piece of music or song that is then put into an optional. This allows the vocal to be dubbed or the song replaced by music from a particular territory.

Any other stem that was created for the title that is part of the M&E would be included similarly to the above

SPECIFICATIONS:

Theatrical M&E stems: Pro Tools 12 or above, 48.00 kHz or 96.00 kHz at 24.00 fps (47.952 kHz or 95.904 kHz at 23.976 fps is equivalent). 48.00 kHz or 96.00 kHz at 23.976 fps is accepted.

Home Theater M&E stems: Pro Tools 12 or above, 48.00 kHz or 96.00 kHz at 23.976 fps

FORMATTING:

M&E stems are delivered in their own pro tools supersession that contains all elements, placed at hour=reel on the timeline. If the project is long form, the M&E stems supersession is formatted to start at the beginning of the picture file (e.g. 00:59:30:00).

M&E Stem configuration should match the main Stem configuration of the Domestic mix, with the Fill M&E stem taking the place of the Dialog stem

NOTE, optionals are not delivered in the M&E stem supersession. Optionals continue to be delivered in the main M&E supersession.

DELIVERY:
All titles must deliver a set of 5.1 M&E stems. A typical example would be:

5.1 Fill M&E Stem
5.1 Crowd or Group M&E Stem (if created for the title). Depending on the content, this may have specific dialog removed for the M&E
5.1 Walla M&E Stem (if created for the title)
5.1 Background M&E Stem
5.1 Foley M&E Stem
5.1 Effects M&E Stem
5.1 Music M&E Stem

If other formats are created for the title, deliver to the same pattern for:

7.1
Atmos IMAX 5.0 IMAX 12.0 DTS:X Auro 11.1 Auromax

FILE NAMING:

Theatrical (TH) and home theater (HT) are in the usage field

In order to clearly differentiate M&E stems from the stems that make up the printmaster, the Audio Element Type abbreviation is MESM. Do not use ME_SM.

The Audio Content abbreviation precedes the element abbreviation and is separated by an underscore. The abbreviations are the same, with the addition of FILL

The M&E stems supersession abbreviation is MESMSP Examples:

The supersession name would be:

TH_MESMSP HT_MESMSP

The individual M&E stems within the supersession are named:

TH_FILL_MESM TH_GRP_MESM TH_CRD_MESM TH_FOL_MESM TH_FX_MESM TH_MX_MESM

HT_FILL_MESM HT_GRP_MESM HT_CRD_MESM HT_FOL_MESM HT_FX_MESM HT_MX_MESM

APPENDIX E: Home Theater Deliverables One Sheet

Sessions are 48.00 kHz, 24 bit, 23.976 fps unless source material is 96K.
If source material is 96K, keep all sessions at 96.00 kHz, 24 bit, 23.976 fps.
If doing Atmos, since DAMF files can only be 48K, record Atmos stems and PM at 96.00 kHz, SRC just before RMU.

See SPE home theater printmaster specifications for specifics on creating mixes and M&Es.

For each session in reels below, all reels for a given element can be in the same session, hour = reel#. For stems and edit sessions ONLY, all stem types for each reel can be in the same session, hour = reel#

All sessions are to be delivered complete with all audio files referenced by the session rendered as needed and placed in the audio files folder for that session by doing a save copy in.

All sessions except edit sessions are to be consolidated and flattened prior to delivery-however, edit sessions still require all audio files referenced by the session to be included per above.

DELIVER FOR ALL NEW RELEASE TITLES:

(The below may be in reels or long form. If in reels, all reels can be in the same session, hour = reel#

  1. 5.1 printmaster (PM) session

  2. Lt-Rt printmaster (PM) session

  3. 5.1 fully-filled M&E supersession (MESP). This contains a 5.1 M&E with dialog guide and one or more 5.0

    multichannel optionals. LAYOUT IS IDENTICAL TO THE THEATRICAL MESP, BUT DOES NOT INCLUDE THE DIALOG

    STEM THAT IS OFTEN PUT IN THE THEATRICAL MESP

  4. LtRt fully-filled ME supersession (MESP). This contains LtRt M&E with two mono optionals and mono dialog guide

    session (mono optionals are a crash down of multichannel optionals. Mixer to determine best way to combine the

    multichannel optionals to two mono optionals on a per-title basis.)

  5. 5.1 wide home theater stems session (SMSP) (same stem types as theatrical)

  6. 5.1 wide music and effects stems session (MESMSP) (same ME stem types as theatrical, same layout as PM stems

    but Dx stem is replaced by Fill M&E Stem.) Note that some M&E stems will have different content than PM stems

    (for example, due to content being pulled to an optional or additional foley added to a foley stem.)

  7. 5.1 fully-filled effects stem (FFXSM). The fully-filled effects stem is a combined effects stem consisting of

    Backgrounds, Foley and Effects, plus the production effects and fill from the Fill M&E stem. Adding music to the FFX stem equals the fully-filled M&E. The fully-filled effects stem is in its own ProTools session. It is not in the same session with the M&E and Optionals (MESP).

  8. 5.1 Home Theater Edit sessions (EDT). These contain the source elements and automation to get from the theatrical mix to the home theater mix. (For example, theatrical stems with mix automation.) Edit sessions must be rendered so the audio files are self-contained.

The below edit sessions must be delivered. They can be combined to a single session, or any combo of multiple sessions, depending on mixer preference. It is suggested that sessions be combined for ease in delivery.

One common approach is one session with the printmasters and stems and another with the M&Es and M&E stems. In this case, the first session is rendered with the 5.1, LtRt printmaster and 5.1 stem audio files, and the second session is rendered with the 5.1 M&E, 5.0 optionals, LtRt M&E, mono optionals, dialog guide and 5.1 M&E stems audio files.

If other soundfield configurations are being delivered (e.g. Atmos), can nest similar edit sessions together. See Nesting in the Atmos section

III. Home Theater 5.1 Stems edit session IV. Home Theater 5.1 MESP edit session

V. Home Theater LtRt MESP edit session
VI. Home Theater 5.1 M&E stems edit session

FOR TITLES THAT ALSO HAVE 7.1, the below are added:

(The below may be in reels or long form. If in reels, all reels can be in the same session, hour = reel#

  1. 7.1 printmaster (PM) session

  2. 7.1 fully-filled M&E supersession (MESP). This contains a 7.1 M&E with dialog guide and one or more 7.0

    multichannel optionals. LAYOUT IS IDENTICAL TO THE THEATRICAL MESP, BUT DOES NOT INCLUDE THE DIALOG

    STEM THAT IS OFTEN PUT IN THE THEATRICAL MESP

  3. 7.1 wide home theater stems session (SMSP) (same stem types as theatrical)

  4. 7.1 wide music and effects stems session (MESMSP) (same ME stem types as theatrical, same layout as PM stems

    but Dx stem is replaced by Fill M&E Stem.) Note that some M&E stems will have different content than PM stems

    (for example, due to content being pulled to an optional or additional foley added to a foley stem.)

  5. 7.1 fully-filled effects stem (FFXSM). The fully-filled effects stem is a combined effects stem consisting of

    Backgrounds, Foley and Effects, plus the production effects and fill from the Fill M&E stem. Adding music to the FFX stem equals the fully-filled M&E. The fully-filled effects stem is in its own ProTools session. It is not in the same session with the M&E and Optionals (MESP).

  6. 7.1 Home Theater Edit sessions (EDT). These contain the source elements and automation to get from the theatrical mix to the home theater mix. (For example, theatrical stems with mix automation.) Edit sessions must be rendered so the audio files are self-contained.

The below edit sessions must be delivered. They can be combined to a single session, or any combo of multiple sessions, depending on mixer preference. It is suggested that sessions be combined for ease in delivery.

One common approach is one session with the printmaster and stems and another with the M&Es and M&E stems. In this case, the first session is rendered with the 7.1 printmaster and stem audio files, and the second session is rendered with the 7.1 M&E, 7.0 optionals, dialog guide and 7.1 M&E stems audio files.

Can nest these with the 5.1 edit sessions. If other soundfield configurations are being delivered (e.g. Atmos), can nest similar edit sessions together. See Nesting in the Atmos section.

I. Home Theater 7.1 Printmaster edit session II. Home Theater 7.1 Stems edit session
III. Home Theater 7.1 MESP edit session

IV. Home Theater 7.1 M&E stems edit session

FOR TITLES THAT HAVE ATMOS, the below are added:

  • �  See page 4 for formatting to long form picture and for procedure in creating an exact file start of 00:59:30:00.

  • �  After recording the first 15 seconds of the DAMF file and stopping, verify the .atmos file offset is 3570 seconds by opening it in a text editor. It can also be viewed in a RMU menu. This corresponds to 59.5

    minutes x 60 sec/min. If it is not exactly 3570, the file must be created again prior to proceeding with the record.

    " NOTE: For Atmos, the stems session is to contain all stem beds and all objects. If the Atmos mix was created with only objects and no stem beds, or if there is only an LFE track in the stem beds, the stem bed tracks can be empty and are named MOS in addition to the bed channel name. In addition, a read me is put into the session folder explaining the layout of the stems session.

    " NOTE: For Atmos, the printmaster session is to contain the composite printmaster bed and all objects. If the Atmos mix was created with only objects and no bed channels, or if there is only an LFE track in the bed channels, the bed tracks can be empty and are named MOS in addition to the bed channel name. In addition, a read me is put into the session folder explaining the layout of the session.

    " NOTE: For Atmos, if the stems and printmasters are recorded simultaneously, they must be split up into two sessions after the fact per the above. Both will contain all objects.

    (The below are long form and are conformed to the IMF proxy picture with 10 second head pop and 20 second tail pop)

  1. Atmos printmaster (PM) session. This contains the printmaster composite bed and all objects.

  2. Atmos DAMF file (Note, this is actually a folder or zip with 3 files).

  3. IAB (Immersive Audio Bitstream) file. This is exported from the DAMF file in the RMU or Dolby Conversion Tool. This

    is done offline from the mix stage.

  4. ADM (ADM-BWF) (Audio Definition Model Broadcast Wave) file. This is exported from the DAMF file in the RMU or

    Dolby Conversion Tool. This is done offline from the mix stage.

  5. Atmos fully-filled M&E (MESP) with all M&E bed channels and objects, layout matching the printmaster. Any optional material that is present in the 5.1 M&E must also be appropriately presented in the Atmos M&E. If any of the optional material was part of the OV Atmos mix, it is also to be in the Atmos M&E.

(The below are in reels or long form)

  1. Atmos wide stems session (SMSP). This contains all stem beds and all objects. (Can be in reels or long form. If in reels, all stem types for each reel in same session, hour=reel#)

  2. (For new titles only) Atmos wide music and effects stems session (MESMSP)(same layout as PM stems but Dx stem is replaced by Fill M&E Stem.) Note that some M&E stems will have different content than PM stems (for example, due to content being pulled to an optional or additional foley added to a foley stem.)

  3. Atmos fully-filled effects stem (FFXSM). The fully-filled effects stem is a combined effects stem consisting of Backgrounds, Foley and Effects, plus the production effects and fill from the Fill M&E stem. Adding music to the FFX stem equals the fully-filled M&E. The fully-filled effects stem is in its own ProTools session. It is not in the same session with the M&E and Optionals (MESP), and contains a FFX stem bed and objects that are pertinent to the FFX stem (not all objects).

  4. Atmos Edit Sessions (EDT). These contain the source elements and automation to get from the theatrical mix to the home theater mix. For example, theatrical stems with mix automation.

" For example, if this is an upmix, the edit session is elements, stems, objects and mix automation. If this is a

home mix of a theatrical Atmos, this is the Atmos theatrical stems session with objects and mix automation.

The below edit sessions must be delivered. They can be combined to a single session, or any combo of multiple sessions, depending on mixer preference. It is suggested that sessions be combined for ease in delivery.

One common approach is one session with the printmaster and stems and another with the M&Es and M&E stems. In this case, the first session is rendered with the Atmos printmaster and stem audio files, and the second session is rendered with the Atmos M&E, optionals, dialog guide and M&E stems audio files.

Nesting: It is recommended to self-contain just once for ATM + 7.1+ 5.1 + LtRT PM and Stems, placing these in a folder that includes separate sessions inside; and just once for ATM + 7.1+ 5.1 + LtRt M&E and M&E stems, placing these in a folder that includes separate sessions inside. These two EDT assets will cover all the formats.

NOTES

00:59:30:00

Beginning of file (must be exact)

For DAMF files, since the RMU needs preroll, temporarily offset the source session to start at 59:15 and set RMU to have record start at exactly 59:30. Play and record up to 59:45 and stop. This will create the proper file start.

Reset source session start to 59:30.

Check .ATMOS file by opening in a text editor to make sure file offset is 3570 seconds. This corresponds to 59.5 minutes x 60 sec/min. This can also be viewed in a RMU menu. If it is not exactly 3570, the file must be created again prior to proceeding with the record.

Play and punch DAMF before 59:45, be sure to catch pop at 59:50.
