SoundWerft - The Docks for your musical creations

The idea behind SoundWerft is to streamline the idea of the Music Machine by Mike Monday. The Music Machine uses a Trello template for its workflow. Though this is nice and accessible for everybody, I personally felt it was to open for myself. The rules of the machine restrict listening back to sketches for a certain amount of time, but this was not enforced by Trello. So I found myself constantly listening back to my current work, instead of actively working on it.

SoundWerft is more restrictive in that sense. It disallows working on sketches at a certain status within a (configurable) time limit. It also streamlines the workflow by managing the work to be done. Instead of mindlessly strolling around the Trello board, finding the next required task, it tells you what should be done next.

Although this may sound very restrictive, producers can still decide how and what to continue (except locked sketches). The app will however enforce a more thoughtful approach to production and helps to get more tracks done in a shorter time.
