Your music is more than a file.
Dropbox is great storage. But music doesn't stop at storage — it needs feedback, splits, credits, and a release wrapped around it. Vandall is the workflow on top of the file.
Five surfaces. Nothing knows about the track.
One surface. All of it knows about the track.
Where the tool stops
Dropbox wins on desktop + LAN sync. Keep it for session-heavy projects; use Vandall for everything after.
Three places storage stops being enough
The moments a shared folder becomes the problem, not the answer.
The mixer posts revision 3
File appears in the folder. You DM the team "v3 is up, check 2:15." Half the feedback comes back in Slack, half in email, a loud note in WhatsApp. Next week nobody remembers which version was signed off.
Revision is threaded on the waveform. Feedback pins to timestamps. Approvals stamp inside the project. One link, one source of truth — even when the track comes back six weeks later.
The release as a folder tree
/masters, /stems, /artwork, /promo, /admin. Someone drops a v2 master into /stems by mistake. Distribution pulls from the wrong folder. The label asks for the radio edit — it's in /promo/weird-subfolder.
A release is a project, not a tree. Master, stems, cover, lyrics, credits, EPK — bundled. Versioning is first-class. The share link opens the release, not a directory.
Who owns what on this track
Dropbox has no concept of contributors, splits, or credits. Rights live in a signed PDF in /admin — if somebody remembered to sign it before the argument.
Split sheet built at session-time. Every contributor sees it. E-signed before the release. PDF exports on delivery so the distributor and the PRO both get the truth.
Every feature, side by side
Honest table — Dropbox wins the storage rows, and we say so.
