The Tracks Grid
The tracks grid is the main screen of Producer Dashboard. It shows every song in your library as a row, with columns for all the information you care about. This is where you will spend most of your time.
What you see in the grid
Section titled “What you see in the grid”Each row represents a single song (track group). The columns give you a quick snapshot of each song’s current state:
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Song name | The title of the track group |
| Stage | Current workflow stage (idea, captured, editing, published, etc.) |
| Bucket | The project or folder the song belongs to |
| BPM | Tempo in beats per minute |
| Key | Musical key |
| Tags | Labels you have applied |
| Due date | Deadline, if one has been set |
| Date | When the song was created or last updated |
| Excitement | Your excitement level for this song |
You can see everything at a glance without opening individual songs.
Sorting
Section titled “Sorting”Click any column header to sort the grid by that column. Click the same header again to reverse the sort direction. A small arrow indicator shows you which column is active and whether it is ascending or descending.
Sorting is useful when you want to find your most recent tracks, see which songs are missing a BPM, or group everything by stage.
Inline editing
Section titled “Inline editing”You do not need to open a separate screen to make changes. Click directly on a cell in the grid to edit it:
- Song name — click the name to rename it.
- Stage — click to open a dropdown of workflow stages.
- Bucket — click to assign or change the project.
- Tags — click to add or remove tags.
- BPM and Key — click to type a new value.
- Due date — click to open a date picker.
Changes save automatically in the background. You will see the update reflected instantly — no need to press a save button or wait for a loading spinner.
Selecting tracks
Section titled “Selecting tracks”Use the checkboxes on the left side of each row to select one or more songs. You can also:
- Click a row to select it and load it in the activity panel on the right.
- Hold Shift and click to select a range of rows.
- Use the header checkbox to select or deselect all visible tracks.
Selected tracks are highlighted so you can see exactly what you are working with.
Bulk operations
Section titled “Bulk operations”When you have multiple tracks selected, a bulk actions bar appears. This lets you apply changes to many songs at once:
- Change stage — move all selected songs to a new workflow stage.
- Assign bucket — put them all in the same project.
- Add or remove tags — apply labels across the selection.
- Set due date — give them all the same deadline.
- Delete — remove the selected songs.
Bulk operations are a huge time saver when you need to tidy up your library or reorganise after a productive session.
Grid view vs Kanban view
Section titled “Grid view vs Kanban view”Producer Dashboard offers two ways to look at your music:
Grid view
Section titled “Grid view”The default table layout. Best for scanning lots of tracks quickly, sorting by columns, and doing bulk edits. If you are managing a large catalogue, this is your go-to.
Kanban view
Section titled “Kanban view”A board layout where songs are displayed as cards grouped by stage. Each stage is a column, and you can drag songs between columns to update their stage. This is great for visualising your workflow and seeing how many tracks sit at each stage.
Switch between views using the view toggle near the top of the tracks page.
Customising the grid
Section titled “Customising the grid”You can control which columns are visible and how wide they are:
- Show or hide columns to focus on the information you need right now.
- Resize columns by dragging the border between column headers.
- Reorder columns by dragging a column header to a new position.
Your layout preferences are saved automatically so the grid looks the way you left it next time you open the app.
Keyboard navigation
Section titled “Keyboard navigation”You can move around the grid with your keyboard for a faster workflow:
- Arrow keys to move between cells.
- Enter to start editing a cell.
- Escape to cancel an edit.
- Tab to move to the next cell.
- Use sorting combined with filters to zero in on exactly the tracks you need. For example, sort by date and filter to a specific bucket to see your latest work on a project.
- Inline editing is the fastest way to update a single field. For more detailed edits across many fields at once, use the activity panel or detail modal.
- The Kanban view works especially well during mix and release prep when you want a visual overview of what is done and what still needs work.
