Sonaris for mastering engineers
Session bookings with deposits, an intake form for every release, versioned masters per track and a delivery checklist that sends the files and the invoice when it's done. A one-room studio, run from one workspace.

An illustrative workspace. The business, people and figures are fictional.
Sessions booked without the back and forth
A public booking page shows the slots you open for attended sessions. The artist picks one, and the booking lands on their contact in the CRM, so the first email you send already knows who they are and what they booked.
- Booking pages on the same record as the contact
- Deposits taken through Commerce when the slot is booked
- Contacts, relationships and history in one CRM
Packages, deposits and a proper intake
Single, EP and album masters are Commerce services with packages, and vinyl pre-masters are an add-on package. The intake form asks for track count, references and delivery formats before the session, and the answers land on the deal.
- Services and packages priced per release
- Deposits and balances paid into your own Stripe account
- Intake forms that create or update the contact and the deal
A project per release, a version per master
Each release is a project with a task per track. Every revision is a new version of the same file, so “master v2” is never a guess. The delivery checklist sits on the release, and the artist and label join its chat room as guests to approve.
- Version history and previews on every file
- Share links with an expiry for delivery
- Reusable checklists for session prep and delivery checks
- A chat room per project with guests from the label
- Loudness and true peak checked
- ISRCs and metadata embedded
- Spacing and fades signed off
- DDP verified against the PQ sheet
- Vinyl sides under 18 minutesSide B
From booking to delivery to the next record
A paid booking opens the release project and puts prep on that day's board. A finished delivery checklist sends the files and the balance invoice. Messages keeps every email in a shared studio inbox, filed on the contact, so a label's history is one click away.
- Reminders before a session go out from your own inbox
- Triggers from bookings, checklists and contacts that went quiet
- Every run has a log, and every edit to a flow is versioned

Time in the room, not in the inbox
Bookings, intakes, revisions, approvals, deliveries and invoices all sit on the release and the contact behind it. When a label comes back for the next record, its last session, files and payments are already there.
