Dashboard Overview

The Dashboard is your home base in Producer Dashboard. When you first sign in, you land here and get a snapshot of everything that matters across your music production workflow. Instead of digging through folders or opening individual projects, you can see where things stand right away.

Think of it as mission control for your music. You can check which tracks need attention, see upcoming deadlines, and jump directly into any project—all without leaving the page.

What Loads on Your Dashboard

When you sign in, your dashboard populates with data from your connected storage. The page loads:

Your Featured Projects — tracks and projects you’ve pinned for quick access
A Mini Kanban board — your tracks organized by workflow stage
A Calendar view — upcoming deadlines and release dates
A Recent Buckets list — projects with recent activity
A Todo list — tasks and reminders tied to your tracks

The dashboard pulls this information from your Dropbox folder structure and displays it in a format designed for music producers. You do not need to manually sync or update anything—everything refreshes automatically when you load the page.

Featured Projects Section

The Featured Projects section appears at the top of your dashboard. This is where you pin the projects or tracks you are actively working on, so they appear front and center every time you sign in.

How to Feature a Project

When you view a track group in the tracks page, look for the star icon in the track card or detail view. Clicking it adds that project to your featured list. The starred item then appears in this top section on your dashboard.

This is useful when you are deep into an album, EP, or a set of tracks for a client. Instead of searching for them each time, they are waiting for you.

Managing Your Featured List

You can feature up to a reasonable number of projects. If you want to remove something from the featured section, click the star icon again to unpin it. The order of featured items reflects recent activity, so the most recently touched projects tend to appear first.

Mini Kanban Board

Below your featured projects sits a Kanban board showing your tracks grouped by workflow stage. Each column represents a stage in your production pipeline. The default stages are Seed, Sprout, Sapling, Tree, and Flower, but you can customize these in your workflow settings.

Reading the Kanban View

The board gives you a visual sense of where your work sits:

Columns — represent workflow stages
Cards — represent individual track groups
Card details — show track name, artwork thumbnail, and collaborator avatars

You can see at a glance whether most of your tracks are in early editing or closer to release. This helps you prioritize what needs attention next.

Expanding a Stage

Click on any column header to expand that stage and see all associated tracks. You can also click directly on a track card to open its detail view. From there, you can update the stage, add collaborators, or set deadlines.

The Kanban board reflects your configured workflows. If you have customized stages in your settings, those appear here instead of the defaults.

Calendar View

The calendar displays upcoming deadlines and release dates for your tracks. You can view it by day, week, or month depending on your preference.

Adding Dates to the Calendar

When viewing a track’s detail panel, you can set a due date or release date. Once set, that date appears in your calendar. Deadlines you have added to individual todos also show up here.

Using the Calendar for Planning

If you have a release schedule or client deliverables, the calendar helps you see upcoming commitments in context. You can spot conflicts early—for example, if three tracks are due on the same day—and adjust accordingly.

Recent Buckets List

On the right side of the dashboard (or at the bottom on smaller screens), you will find a list of Recent Buckets. These are projects where activity has occurred recently—new bounces uploaded, comments added, or files modified.

How It Works

The dashboard monitors your connected storage and surfaces projects with recent changes. It shows:

The project name
A thumbnail if artwork is available
The time since last activity (e.g., “2 hours ago”)
The track count in that project

Why It Matters

Instead of manually browsing through folders to find what you worked on last, recent buckets surfaces it automatically. This is especially useful when you are juggling multiple projects and want to jump back into something quickly.

The Todo list widget displays tasks and reminders tied to your tracks. You can filter todos by timeframe:

All — shows every open todo
This Week — shows tasks due within the next seven days
This Month — shows tasks due within the next thirty days

Adding Todos

From any track detail view, you can add a todo item. Todos can include a description, due date, and assignee. They appear in this widget and on your calendar.

Completing Todos

Click the checkbox next to a todo to mark it complete. It moves to a completed section or disappears, depending on your filter settings.

Tips

Pin your active projects to Featured so they appear every time you sign in—great for ongoing albums or client work.
Check Recent Buckets first when returning after a break to see what changed while you were away.
Use the Kanban board to quickly identify bottlenecks—if everything is stuck in one stage, you know what to focus on.
Set due dates on todos, not just tracks, to get them to appear in your calendar view.
Sign in from the same device to take advantage of local caching, which speeds up dashboard loading.
