01 / Organize the song
Keep a song, its versions and files in one project. Use artist and album workspaces to keep your catalog in context. Agree on who prepares, reviews and approves the next version.
02 / Keep versions and stems together
Keep earlier bounces and describe changes with clear notes. Agree on formats and a common export start point for stems before sharing. wuse organizes your files; it does not automatically convert editable sessions between DAWs.
03 / Share and follow activity
Send music through delivery links and follow their activity. A view or download does not by itself confirm mix approval: record which version your team has approved.
04 / Agree on splits
Discuss publishing and master percentages with participants, prepare the agreement and invite them to review and sign. Keep the final PDF and verification link. Split supports standalone agreements; Pro also links agreements to projects.
Start with one small delivery
You do not need to move your entire catalog on day one. Pick a song you are already working on and gather the current bounce, a reference and the files the next person needs. Give files names that identify the song and version without opening them. Before sending anything, confirm whether the recipient needs to listen, review a mix or continue production. Those are different tasks and they call for different deliveries.
Make a review easy to act on
When someone requests a change, it helps to specify where it happens, what they want to hear and what should stay. “The vocal is too quiet in the second verse” gives the producer more direction than “make it more energetic”. Keep the previous bounce for comparison and describe what changed in the new version. The reviewer should be able to make a decision without reconstructing a conversation across messages and folders.
Listening, delivery and agreement are separate steps
Share a bounce for an initial listen, then prepare stems or a session for the person doing the next stage of work. Check that files open and stems remain aligned. Once the team approves the music, identify the chosen version clearly. Participation agreements support the workflow, but they do not replace discussion with collaborators. Compare the plans or follow the getting started guide.
Prepare a session with references and files
Open a calendar session and link its project. In Preparation, share a brief and a link to collect notes, references and files before recording. Materials stay associated with the session or project; you can also upload takes while the session is active.
If the task still needs defining, use the production brief template for a collaborator. Once the first task is clear, open the calendar to prepare the session.
Compare two versions at the same moment
In a project with at least two audio versions, open Compare versions. Keep the listening position to review the same passage, and use blind comparison to choose before seeing the version name. Match volume changes playback only and requires a loudness measurement for every version; it does not modify your original files.
Share the comparison through a link with someone who has no wuse account. Before sending new mixes, see how to organize versions and stems in a project. Then open your projects to compare bounces.
Collect feedback in a review round
Open Production inside the project, go to Review rounds and select the version to review. Create the round and share its link. The recipient collects comments at specific points in the audio and submits them together. Your team marks items resolved and closes the round once every point has been addressed.
For notes that can become concrete tasks, read the mix feedback guide with examples. You can open your project to prepare a round once you have chosen the mix and the person coordinating the response.
Record approval of one exact audio file
In Production, open Final approval, choose a version and share its link. The recipient listens, supplies their name and email and explicitly confirms approval. The record keeps those details, the exact file reference and the time. Approved audio is protected from replacement, version deletion and automatic retention cleanup.
The recipient supplies these details: the record does not verify identity or sign a contract. For participation percentages, see how to prepare and sign a split sheet. If you are choosing tools for your work, compare Split and Pro before activating a plan.
