Track Metadata Export
Track Metadata Export gives you a quick way to download a comprehensive snapshot of all your track groups in a single CSV file. Whether you need to review your catalog offline, share track details with collaborators, or prepare data for external tools, the export covers the essential information producers need to manage their work.
When you click Export, the system fetches all track groups and projects, resolves project names, and compiles the metadata into one browser-downloaded CSV file.
How to Export Your Track Metadata
Section titled “How to Export Your Track Metadata”Exporting is straightforward. Here’s how to get your data:
- Navigate to the Track Metadata section in the Export area of the app
- Click the Export button in the toolbar
- Your browser will automatically download a file named
track-metadata-YYYY-MM-DD.csv
The file downloads immediately with a timestamp in the filename so you can keep multiple exports organized by date. The CSV uses UTF-8 encoding with a byte order mark, which means special characters like accents in artist names or song titles display correctly when you open the file in Excel.
What’s Included in the Export
Section titled “What’s Included in the Export”The exported CSV contains all the key details about your tracks organized into columns. Here’s what each column represents:
Track Information
Section titled “Track Information”| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Song Name | The title of the track |
| Stage | Current production stage (Idea, Writing, Recording, Mixing, etc.) |
| Workflow State | Workflow values formatted as semicolon-separated key:value pairs |
| Bucket | Which project or playlist the track belongs to |
| Tags | Semicolon-separated tags applied to the track |
| BPM | Tempo in beats per minute |
| Key | Musical key (e.g., C Major, F# Minor) |
| Genre | Deduplicated, semicolon-separated genre values |
| Mood | Deduplicated, semicolon-separated mood values |
| Excitement | Excitement rating if set |
| Due Date | Assigned deadline |
| Favourite | Whether the track is marked as a favourite |
Collaborator Details
Section titled “Collaborator Details”| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Collaborators | Full collaborator information including name, email, role, and split percentages |
The Collaborators column combines multiple pieces of information into one readable format. Each collaborator is formatted as Name (email) [role] master%/publishing%.
For example, a collaborator entry might look like:
Sarah Chen (sarah@example.com) [writer] 50%/50%If there are multiple collaborators, they’re separated by semicolons within the cell, making it easy to see who owns what on each track.
Administrative Fields
Section titled “Administrative Fields”| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Notes | Any notes attached to the track |
| Created | Date the track was first created |
| Updated | Date the track was last modified |
Understanding the Collaborator Column
Section titled “Understanding the Collaborator Column”Since split percentages are critical for PRO registration and royalty tracking, the Collaborators column is designed to give you a complete picture at a glance. Each entry includes:
- Name — The collaborator’s full name
- Email — Their contact email in parentheses
- Role — Shown in brackets if they’re not a standard collaborator (e.g., [producer], [mixer])
- Splits — Master ownership percentage and publishing percentage, shown as
X%/Y%
If you have three collaborators on a track with different splits, the Collaborators cell will contain all three entries separated by semicolons. This format works well for quick reference, though for detailed PRO submissions you may want to use the dedicated split sheet exports which format the data for specific organizations.
