Songs & Track Groups
The Songs & Track Groups section is your main hub for managing all the music you produce. Every song you work on lives here, organized into track groups that bring together your project files, bounces, stems, and all the metadata that keeps your workflow moving.
Whether you’re looking at a single track or filtering through hundreds of songs, this section gives you the tools to find what you need fast and make changes in bulk.
Understanding Track Groups
Section titled “Understanding Track Groups”A track group is essentially a folder for your song. When you import a project file or create a new track, Producer Dashboard bundles everything together — your project file, audio bounces, stems, and any metadata you add — into a single, organized unit.
The track name you see in the grid comes from your actual file names. If you rename a track manually, that name stays yours even after syncing. The app derives the display name by stripping the file extension and version suffixes (like _v3, _final, _master) from the filename. When multiple files are grouped together during import, the shortest cleaned-up name in the cluster becomes the group name.
Choosing Your View
Section titled “Choosing Your View”You can view your tracks in two different layouts, and you switch between them easily.
Grid View shows your tracks as a table with sortable columns. This is ideal when you want to scan through many songs and compare details like stage, BPM, or collaborators side by side.
Card View displays each track as a visual card with artwork and key details. This works well when you want a more visual, scannable overview of your catalog.
Click the view toggle button in the toolbar to switch between modes. Your preference is saved, so the app remembers which view you prefer next time you log in.
The Tracks Table
Section titled “The Tracks Table”The table view organizes your music into columns, each showing a specific piece of information about every track.
Song Name
Section titled “Song Name”The primary identifier for each track. This column always stays visible and shows your track’s display name in clean, readable format. Click any song name to open the track detail panel where you can view and edit all the track’s information.
Where your track currently sits in your workflow. Stages might include labels like “Idea,” “In Progress,” “Ready to Post,” or “Published” depending on how your team has configured the system. Click the stage badge to change it without opening the full track details.
Workflows
Section titled “Workflows”Shows active workflow badges for your track. Workflows are custom indicators you can assign to tracks — perhaps to mark that a track needs mixing, or that the client has approved it. Click anywhere in the cell to open the workflow selector.
Organizes your tracks with custom labels like genres, moods, or project names. Tags appear as colored pills in this column. Click to add, remove, or filter by tags directly from the grid.
Collaborators
Section titled “Collaborators”Shows everyone working on a track as overlapping avatar circles. Your own profile always appears first, followed by any collaborators. When more than five people are involved, you’ll see a “+N” indicator. Clicking this column opens the collaborators widget so you can manage who has access.
Excitement Level
Section titled “Excitement Level”A personal rating system from 0 to 100 that helps you track how excited you feel about each track. Use the slider in the filter panel to show only your hottest tracks, or set a range to surface songs you might have forgotten about.
Favourite
Section titled “Favourite”A quick-access heart toggle. Click the heart icon to mark tracks as favorites. Your favorites sort to the top when you apply that filter, making it easy to surface your best work.
Date Modified
Section titled “Date Modified”Shows when the track was last updated. This helps you quickly find recently worked-on songs or spot tracks that haven’t been touched in a while.
Due Date
Section titled “Due Date”Displays any deadline you’ve set for a track. Useful for keeping release schedules on track or meeting client deliverables.
Buckets
Section titled “Buckets”Indicates which project or playlist the track belongs to. Buckets help you organize music into campaigns, albums, or client projects. You can drag and drop tracks directly onto bucket headers to reassign them.
Key & BPM
Section titled “Key & BPM”Musical properties extracted from your audio files. These columns help you find tracks in compatible keys for mixing or matching tempos for playlists.
Selecting Tracks
Section titled “Selecting Tracks”Single-click any row to select that track and open its details in the activity panel.
For selecting multiple tracks, hold Shift and click to select a range, or hold Ctrl/Cmd and click to toggle individual tracks on and off. Multi-select enables bulk actions so you can update several tracks at once.
When multiple tracks are selected, the activity panel shows a summary view with combined information — shared collaborators, mixed stages, and bulk action buttons for common tasks.
Filtering Your Tracks
Section titled “Filtering Your Tracks”The filter panel gives you precise control over which tracks appear. You can combine multiple filters to narrow down your view to exactly the songs you need.
Status filters let you show tracks by their workflow stage. Select one or multiple stages to include, or actively exclude stages you want to hide from view.
Excitement filters work as a range slider. Set a minimum and maximum excitement level to surface tracks within your preferred energy band.
Tag and collaborator filters work similarly — select which tags or collaborators to include, or exclude specific ones. You can mix positive and negative filters, so you might include tracks tagged “Pop” but exclude those tagged “Demo.”
Search scans across track names, artists, stages, bucket names, tags, and active workflows simultaneously. Type a client name, genre, or workflow keyword to find matching tracks instantly.
Filters persist as you navigate, so your filtered view stays active until you clear it. You can also save frequently used filter combinations as saved searches for one-click access.
Sorting Your View
Section titled “Sorting Your View”Click any column header to sort your tracks by that property. Click again to reverse the sort direction. The current sort column and direction are indicated by an arrow in the header.
Default sorting shows most recently modified tracks at the top, but you can re-sort by any column — song name alphabetically, excitement level highest first, due dates soonest, or any other property that helps you work.
Bulk Editing
Section titled “Bulk Editing”When you have multiple tracks selected, a bulk action bar appears at the bottom of the grid. From here you can:
- Change stage for all selected tracks
- Assign or remove bucket membership
- Add or remove tags across the selection
- Toggle favorites for all selected tracks
- Open the bulk editor for complete metadata editing
Bulk actions apply to every selected track simultaneously, saving you from editing each one individually.
Customizing Columns
Section titled “Customizing Columns”The column manager lets you control which columns appear and their order. Open it from the toolbar to show, hide, or reorder columns to match your workflow.
You can resize columns by dragging their edges, and the app remembers your column configuration between sessions.
Some columns like Song Name cannot be hidden since they’re essential for navigation. Others are optional — if you never filter by BPM, for instance, you can hide that column to reduce clutter.
