Track references

Pin related tracks to a track as inspiration or context. Search your own library, search Spotify by song name or ISRC, or paste any link. References work both ways: you can see what a track references and what references it.

What it is

References let you pin related tracks to the one you're working on, "this remix references that original", "this is the vibe we're going for". A reference can be another track from your own library, or an external link from YouTube, SoundCloud, Spotify, or anywhere else.

Using it

Adding a reference track

  1. Open a track and go to Metadata → References (or the references panel on the track create form).
  2. Press Add reference track and type into the one search field. It takes all of these:
    • a song name: matches your own tracks and searches Spotify,
    • an ISRC: looks the recording up on Spotify directly,
    • a link from Spotify, YouTube, SoundCloud, Apple Music, Mixcloud or Dropbox.
  3. Picking a Spotify result stores its real title, artist, ISRC, artwork and canonical link, so you never have to type them in. Other links are stored as links.
  4. Remove a reference any time with the trash icon.
