Listen together in a Listening Room

Everyone hears the same version at the same moment. The host controls playback, and chat notes can become comments.

Available on Listener · Artist · Producer · Studio · Label

This guide is for anyone reviewing a song together while apart. In a Listening Room, the host plays, pauses, seeks and switches versions for everyone. Everyone else follows along.

Open a room

  1. Open the song and choose Listen together.
  2. You are the host. Anyone on the project can join from the song page while the room is open.

Invite people from outside the project

  1. In the room, choose Invite guests.
  2. Type their email addresses. Tick Watermark each guest's stream if you want each guest to hear a marked copy (this depends on your plan).
  3. Choose Send invites.

Guests sign in with the invited address, or create a free account. They only hear what the room plays, can't download, and lose access when the room ends.

During the session

  • Type in Chat to talk. Tick Send as comment to save a note as a timestamped comment on the version.
  • Hand over gives playback control to someone else. Step down gives it back.
  • A/B with… switches the room between two versions.

End the room

Choose End room. Everyone stops hearing it, guest links stop working, and you get a RECAP of who listened and the notes made. Rooms nobody uses close by themselves after a while.

Common problems

  • A guest can't get in. They must sign in with the exact address you invited. Their link also expires within 24 hours.
  • Playback drifts. Ask everyone to stay on the page. Background tabs on phones may pause.
  • Invite guests is missing. You need permission to share the song.
