I don't normalize individual performance audio files but have normalized completed mixes.
Jim, would you also recommend mono for rendering tracks out of BIAB?
I wouldn't. Many of the RealTracks are recorded in stereo and I think, even with panning in the center, the stereo tracks have more 'depth' to the sound.
