Share a track link

The fast path

1. In Your sound, click Share link on the track row.
2. Paste it into an email / message / DAW comment.

The recipient opens the link and hears your track. They don't need an account; the link itself is the key.

What the recipient sees

https://app.soundassist.online/listen/<token>

Lands on a page with:

• Your track title + your username
• A waveform + play button
• Track metadata (BPM, key, duration)
• A comment thread (timestamp-anchored)
• A download button (if you allowed it)

The page is mobile-friendly. Listeners can play it directly from a phone without installing anything.

Privacy

The listen token is a 36-character random UUID. Brute-forcing it would take longer than the universe has existed.

But: whoever has the link can listen. There's no per-user authentication on listen links. If you sent the link to one person and they forwarded it to someone else, that someone else can hear it too.

When to rotate the link

If you suspect the link has leaked (forwarded to people who shouldn't have it, posted somewhere public, etc.), you can rotate it:

1. Track row → ⋯ menu → Rotate share link.
2. Confirm.
3. The old URL stops working immediately. A new URL is generated.
4. The new URL is copied to your clipboard.

You'll need to send the new link to anyone who should still have access.

Allowing downloads

Each track has an allow download toggle (off by default). When on, the listen page shows a Download button. When off, the page shows only the play controls + comments.

Allow download if:

• You're sending a master to a mastering engineer.
• The recipient needs to play in a DAW.
• It's a stem pack going to a remixer.

Keep it off if:

• You want feedback but don't want a copy floating around.
• The track is a rough mix you might revise.

Track download counter

If downloads are allowed, the track row shows a counter. This is the count of unique download events recorded by /api/tracks/<id>/stats; useful for "how many copies did I send out" but not a strict per-recipient breakdown.
