Tracking Progress

Knowing where things stand across your catalogue is essential — whether you’re working on one EP or juggling five projects. Producer Dashboard gives you several ways to see your progress at a glance and drill into the details when you need them.

Kanban View

The Kanban view is the most visual way to track your production workflow. It turns your stages into columns and your tracks into cards, laid out left to right from earliest to latest stage.

Switching to Kanban

From the tracks page, look for the view switcher near the top of the grid. Click the Kanban icon to switch from the table grid to the board layout.

What You See

Each column represents a workflow stage (Seed, Writing, Recorded, Mixing, and so on). Every track shows as a card in the column matching its current stage. The columns are colour-coded to match the stage colours, so you get an instant visual breakdown.

At a glance, you can see:

How many tracks are in each stage
Where your bottlenecks are (tall columns = lots of tracks stuck there)
Which stages are empty (might mean things are flowing well, or that nothing’s reaching that point)

Moving Cards

Drag a card from one column to another to change its stage. This is the same as updating the stage from the grid — the track’s stage changes immediately. It’s a satisfying way to move work forward: finish a mix, drag the card from “Mixing” to “Ready to Release.”

Filtering the Board

All your grid filters work in Kanban view too. Filter by project, tags, or other criteria, and the board updates to show only matching tracks. This lets you look at a specific project’s workflow or focus on tracks with a particular tag.

Dashboard Mini Kanban

The main dashboard includes a compact kanban widget that gives you a summary view without leaving the dashboard.

This mini kanban focuses on your active, early-stage tracks — the ones that are in progress and need attention. It’s designed to answer the question “what should I be working on?” when you first open the app.

The mini kanban shows:

A condensed view of your stage columns
Track counts per stage
Quick access to tracks by clicking on them

It’s not a full board — for the complete Kanban experience, switch to the Kanban view on the tracks page.

Filtering the Grid by Stage

The standard table grid has powerful filtering options. To filter by stage:

Look for the filter controls above the grid
Select the Stage filter
Choose one or more stages to display
The grid updates to show only tracks in those stages

Common Filter Combinations

Seed + Writing — See everything that’s still in development. Good for a writing session.
Mixing only — Focus on what needs mixing. Batch your mixing sessions for efficiency.
Ready to Release — See what’s complete and plan your release schedule.
Archived — Browse your vault of shelved tracks for potential revival.

You can combine stage filters with other filters like project, tags, due date, or BPM to get very specific views.

Saved Views

If you find yourself applying the same filters repeatedly, save them as a view so you can return to that exact configuration with one click.

Creating a Saved View

Set up your desired filters (stage, project, tags, sort order, etc.)
Look for the Save View option
Name it something descriptive (e.g., “Active Mixes”, “EP Ready for Release”, “All Seeds”)
The view appears in your saved views list for quick access

Stage-Based Saved Views

Some useful saved views built around stages:

“Active Work” — Tracks in Writing, Recorded, and Mixing stages. Your working pipeline.
“Needs Attention” — Tracks in Mixing stage that are overdue. The urgent stuff.
“Release Pipeline” — Ready to Release tracks sorted by due date. Your upcoming drops.
“Idea Bank” — All Seed-stage tracks sorted by newest first. Browse when you need inspiration.
“Done This Month” — Published tracks with a date filter for the current month. Celebrate your output.

Saved views persist across sessions, so they’re there every time you open the app.

Progress Indicators on the Dashboard

The dashboard collects several progress metrics in one place:

Stage Breakdown

A visual summary showing how many tracks sit at each stage across your entire catalogue (or within a selected project). This tells you the shape of your pipeline — whether you’re heavy on ideas but light on finished work, or the opposite.

Recent Activity

See which tracks moved stages recently. This shows momentum — are you making progress day to day, or have things stalled?

Upcoming Deadlines

Tracks and projects with due dates approaching. Combined with stage information, this tells you not just what’s due soon, but whether it’s actually close to being done.
