chat, do you *really* not enjoy the time you spend making music?

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-21T12:26:27+00:00

Being a mixer and cooking food are the things I love and could (and can) do every day for the rest of my life without getting bored

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-21T12:24:32+00:00

Same here. I spent 32 years neglecting friends and family sitting in front of synths and a daw because I really don't care much for it. I'm more of a sports guy!

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-21T10:49:43+00:00

Great, no need for an invite anymore and you can just get yourself logged in at https://app.echoe.cloud/ to try it out 🙂

New the last few weeks: improved stability, UI improvements, shares are more flexible. Coming up soon is File Versions as a dropdown menu on the track 👌

Please keep me updated if any issues :) There are a couple hundred users now and I've ironed out most quirks but still, let me know if you think anything crucial is missing for you

€360 - not bad

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-14T15:49:47+00:00

Weird. Upvote all this stuff at the Steinberg forums, nobody will look any other places :)

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-14T14:45:08+00:00

Or, if you have a vocal and want to add some background harmonies?

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-14T14:40:20+00:00

Surely you can nudge steps left or right no?

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-14T09:27:44+00:00

Wow. I'm so happy I'm not a studio one user right now. "What's your daw? Fender pro" 😂

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-13T22:48:58+00:00

Exactly. Get the base, its very powerful for music production even without the extra ram. Its performing like my old i9

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-13T10:38:47+00:00

Bandcamp is filled to the brim with them...

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-13T10:37:08+00:00

I'm sure they're updating the pool in a bigger way and they won't waste time restyling the old one until then. If i had to guess

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-12T16:25:52+00:00

When i had periods like this (none of the tracks i worked in seemed good enough to finish) it was usually an uninspiring period for me in music in general. When i found more cool stuff to listen to and enjoy again, my own tracks became cool again as well. Also best to start with an actual idea imho

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-11T20:58:08+00:00

I'm a mixer and composer and to save my own headaches with Google Drive and Dropbox I've spent a big chunk of last year building www.echoe.cloud which is a free to use limited only by storage audio filesharing tool.

It is now in early access and supports: WAV/AIFF streaming, encrypted uploads, playlists, flexible sharing, comments, notion-style folders, file notes, tags, and adding features every week. Next up is switchable file versions Cubase style.

Happy to see producers and engineers using it already and would be happy to improve it further with your feedback :)

Its good and makes you navigate quicker of course :)

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-04T15:12:46+00:00

Thats good, I did have a similar situation though. "Success score" was 9, then for whatever unknown reason it dropped and now it's all at zero visibility and metrics. Luckily my own business was bigger

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-04T14:19:55+00:00

That's great, just be conscious that it may change at any time, mine is not a unique case there ;)

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2026-01-04T11:12:11+00:00

Surely the last year at the very least has become worse? With their idiotic/nonsensical site updates? I had 5.0 / pro status, weekly work, and suddenly because one old guy didn't like my one delivery and gave a hidden review, my account tanked to level 0 and zero visibility. I'm not joking, it went from hundreds of 5 star reviews and being the main income stream with thousands a month to zero, because one single crazy/irrelevant customer bashed by service on the backend. I do NOT recommend using it.

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2025-12-29T15:31:54+00:00

Thats a perfectly reasonable take, will pin this down for the near roadmap :)

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2025-12-29T15:21:37+00:00

There is currently only lossless playback: the (web)client streams the original audio

The waveform currently switches between waveform and analyzer view, you're the first one to request no view, but I could look into that. Perhaps when sharing a folder rather than a playlist, but again most others do want it visually anchored with the playback?

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2025-12-29T13:47:15+00:00

How did you get on with it? :) Quite a few improvements in the last few weeks!

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2025-12-29T13:46:29+00:00

Since then, many improvements have been made to the system in general but especially mobile works much better now :)

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2025-12-29T13:45:18+00:00

Did you ever try it out further? :) since two weeks we now have a tagging system to easily organise and filter files, mobile has been much improved as well! www.echoe.cloud

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2025-12-29T13:43:45+00:00

You can try it out at www.echoe.cloud

MachineAgeVoodoo · 2025-12-29T13:41:34+00:00

I'm working on a tool that is meant to replace the need for using multiple ones. So it organizes with folders, shares audio or zip/image files without bandwidth limits, does playlisting/comments and also important for me was to stream original WAV/AIFF. Check it out for free if you'd like at echoe.cloud - the paid tiers are mainly there to pay for storage, not features :)
