Tracks, versions & distribution
The central object in Aden — a piece of music moving from idea to released master, with versions, covers, collaborators, comments and distribution.
What it is
A track is one piece of music as it moves through the studio — from a first idea, through revisions and feedback, to a released master. It's the central object in Aden: albums group tracks, sessions produce them, comments and todos hang off them.
Every track belongs to a team. A track on its own is a single; group it into an album to release it together with others.
Using it
Create a track. From your team's Tracks page, click New track, give it a
title, and it starts in the idea stage. Drag tracks to reorder them.
Upload a version. Open a track and upload an audio file — each upload is a new version. Mark one version as current and that's "the track right now" everywhere it's shown.
Get feedback. Collaborators leave comments on a version, optionally pinned to a timestamp ("sub bass clips at 1:24"). Resolve them as you go.
Move it through the stages. A track's status walks
idea → in progress → mixing → mastering → ready → released. Set it on the
track; the board and analytics follow the order.
Share it. Generate a share link to send a version to someone outside the team for review or download (see Sharing).
Track add-ons — collections, references, documents, analytics & inspiration
Sub-features that extend a track beyond its audio: grouping tracks into collections (playlists, albums, mixes), attaching reference tracks and external inspirations, uploading documents, recording play analytics, and moving a track between teams.
