Frequently asked questions

Clear boundaries are a product feature.

Does the application upload scripts or audio?

No. The runtime has no upload endpoint and no external API for your work, and a content policy that blocks every outbound connection except the billing hosts and Cloudflare's cookie-free page-view count. Network use is limited to billing (one entitlement check, and the checkout on the Premium page) and that page-view count. Selected audio files are read locally for a bounded slice of header metadata and are never stored as audio bytes, and neither are their file paths. You can watch the browser network panel while you work all nine stations and see it stay empty apart from Cloudflare's cookie-free page-view count; nothing you type, open or export is ever sent.

Does it record or play audio?

No, and it never asks for microphone permission. Capture, listening, editing and mastering stay in your own recording software. The session desk records cue and take metadata beside your DAW, which is precisely why it can stay this small and this honest about what it knows.

What audio formats are supported?

Signed RIFF/WAVE and FORM/AIFF or AIFC files with .wav, .wave, .aif or .aiff extensions, for bounded header inspection only. A supported header can expose declared encoding, channels, sample rate, bit depth, byte rate, data size and an estimated duration. Truncated or internally inconsistent chunks are rejected rather than half-read.

Can it tell whether a take sounds good?

No. It does not decode a single audio sample, so silence, clipping, noise, loudness, pronunciation, emotion, synchronization and content identity are all invisible to it. Ratings and flags on a take are your own shorthand, entered by you, and carry no defined meaning to anyone else.

Can I restore a project on another computer?

Yes. Download a versioned checkpoint from the projects station and import it in another copy of the application; the restore is transactional and refuses a file whose schema or digest does not check out. Audio files are separate and remain your responsibility to move.

Does a frozen receipt prove delivery?

No. A freeze takes a digest over the local metadata and findings as they stood at that moment, so later changes are visible instead of silent. It transmits nothing. It does not prove receipt, identity, approval, acceptance, rights, quality or compliance, and it should never be presented as though it did.

Do I need an account?

No. Projects are stored in IndexedDB in the current browser profile, with a session-only fallback when that storage cannot open. There is no sign-in and no server-side copy of your work, which also means no support operator can recover a project, or a lost access code, for you. Download checkpoints.
