Handover

Handover moves a song between engineers with nothing missing: each stem comes with the chain you used on it, and opens in the next engineer's DAW with every control adjustable, even without the same gear or plugins. Pro.

Starting a session

  1. Go to Handover and press New session. Give it a title and an optional note for the other engineers.
  2. Add tempo, time signature, key and notes for the next engineer.
  3. Add each stem (or the full mix) as a WAV, with its chain: one of your saved chains at its settings, the units in order, or no chain if the stem is printed. If the full mix's chain is your mix-bus chain, say so.
  4. If a chain used a sidechain in your DAW, add the key track (exported from the same start to the same end) so renders duck as yours did.
  5. Invite engineers by email.

Opening a shared session

Download the stems, put them on tracks, open DigMusiK on each and choose Sessions shared with me: the stem's chain loads, every control adjustable. Hardware and DigMusiK Originals open as they are for everyone. A unit made with software plugins opens as it is for anyone who confirms they own that plugin, and is matched to the closest Originals for everyone else.

Need the exact sound? Ask for an exact render: the stem is rendered on our servers through the exact chain at your settings, and you get a WAV back.

When you're done

Close the session when the song moves on, and keep it in the Session Vault so it still opens years from now.
