“But Riki, how do you share revisions with clients?”
Good question.
Because once you reach a certain level, sending files through WhatsApp, WeTransfer, or email quickly becomes chaos.
Confusing versions.
Scattered feedback.
Clients forgetting which mix is the right one.
That’s where platforms like Mixup.media and Samply come in.
What Mixup.media and Samply are
Both platforms are designed for professional audio sharing.
The concept is simple:
- upload your mix versions
- generate a link
- let the client listen online
No need to download new files every single time.
Both platforms also allow:
- comments directly on the audio timeline
- version management
- instant revision comparison
- a much cleaner workflow overall
Mixup.media vs Samply
Samply: more aesthetic and premium-looking
Samply has a very polished interface:
- customizable cover artwork
- custom background colors
- elegant audio player
It’s widely appreciated by professional mastering engineers thanks to features such as:
- lossless playback
- time-coded comments
- accurate versioning
Mixup.media: minimal, fast, and intuitive
Mixup focuses heavily on workflow speed.
Personally, I prefer Mixup because of how it handles version playback:
- switch between revisions
- audio keeps playing in sync
- compare differences in real time
This massively speeds up communication with clients.
Samply can do something similar, but in my opinion it feels less immediate and slightly more cumbersome.
Mixup also includes:
- HD streaming
- versioning
- comments
- desktop/mobile apps
- direct DAW integration
How much do they cost?
Both platforms offer:
- a free plan
- multiple paid plans
This means you can choose the solution that best fits your workflow and the number of clients you manage.
Why not just send files directly?
Because doing that makes you lose:
- revision history
- organization
- speed in the feedback process
With these platforms, clients can:
- compare versions easily
- hear the improvements clearly
- leave accurate feedback
Personally, I often upload the client’s original demo too, so they can clearly hear how far the track evolved during the mixing and mastering process.
Conclusion
Today, workflow matters almost as much as sound quality.
Having a clean system for revisions, approvals, and deliveries:
- speeds up the process
- improves communication
- makes everything look more professional
And that’s exactly what platforms like Mixup.media and Samply are designed for.
