To add to the above. I would also render your stems WITHOUT any plugins at all as a separate pass. This way, maybe in 10 years time you might want to remix the whole lot again with a whole heap of different plugins etc …
Of course, only if you feel you might wish to re-visit tracks again years down the road. We do see posts here quite often about people who only have a stereo track, or stems with reverb on which they want to remove! And they are pretty stuck when they want to create a new/better mixdown.
