Comment on Git for Music – Using Version Control for Music Production (2023)

Comments

Most producers just use SoundCloud for version control. You can export tracks directly from the DAW. Since it's cloud-hosted, it's easy to share with others and enable them to listen and drop feedback as comments within the track waveform.

This isn’t version control, this is just an equivalent of “releases” feature on Github for binaries.

If you can’t get the source code out of it (or, in this case, DAW project), it isn’t version control, it is more of a binary release history.

Yeah, that's a fair point. Producers use Splice for DAW version-control and collaboration. https://splice.com/

That's not version control, that's file sharing. You cannot share or version your DAW projects like RPP files through SoundCloud.
