Splice Studio died. Blend.io died.So we built this.
Organize your Ableton projects. Capture ideas. Collab without the chaos. No more final_final_v3_actual.als nonsense.
- Emma adjusted “Glue Compressor” threshold2s
- Jon toggled “Vocal Doubler” send8s
- You updated master tempo15s
LiveSync mirrors what collaborators are doing inside Ableton without touching your audio engine, so you can react immediately instead of trading project files.
12 pro studios and writing camps are already co-writing through LiveSync each week.
Producers stay on the same arrangement view, artists review takes in real time, and teams stop versioning headaches. Sessions stay secure with end-to-end encryption and metadata-only sync.

Why this doesn’t suck
Work whenever, sync later
Make changes on your time. Your buddy makes changes on theirs. Sync when you’re both ready. One person hosts, everyone knows who’s in charge. No weird merge conflicts.
Snapshots > save files
Capture any project state. Name it whatever. Go back to Tuesday’s mix that actually slapped. Try wild ideas in a new branch without blowing up the main thing.
Actual DAW integration
This isn’t Dropbox with extra steps. Plugs into Ableton’s API. Tracks, clips, MIDI, mixer settings—all synced. Not just dumping .als files around.
Stems that actually sync
Drag in a vocal stem, it syncs. Your collab gets it automatically. No more “yo did you get my updated vocal.mp3” in Discord DMs at 2am.
Here’s how it works
Install the thing
Download the installer, run it. Adds the Python bridge + Ableton script automatically. Works on Mac and Windows. Takes about 5 minutes.
Make a repo, start a session
One repo per song/project. Start a session when you’re working. Drop your buddy a session code. They join, grab the files, start working.
Make stuff, snapshot it
Change whatever. Snapshot when it feels right. Sync to your collab. They pull your changes, add theirs, snapshot again. Checkout any old snapshot if you want.
We’re building this in public
It works but it’s rough. Looking for producer duos who actually collab to test this with real projects. Help us make it not suck and you get it free forever.
Questions you probably have
Splice killed it in 2023 to focus on samples/plugins. Blend.io died in 2024 when ROLI bailed. Nothing replaced them. Boombox just syncs files—no DAW integration, no snapshots, no branches. So here we are.
Dropbox syncs files. Cool. This syncs project state through Ableton's API. Tracks, clips, MIDI, mixer stuff—managed automatically. Plus you get snapshots and branches. Way better than 47 files named “FINAL” in a folder.
Core stuff works. Installation is smooth now—one-click installer, no manual scripts. Still in beta though. We're testing and fixing edge cases. Need a few producer pairs who collab regularly to help us dial it in.
Free for early testers. You help us make it better, we give it to you free forever. Once it's actually polished we'll figure out pricing. Early testers get a lifetime discount.
Yeah. You need Ableton and someone to collab with. Installation is straightforward now—just run the installer. We can still hop on Zoom if you need help, but most people get it running solo.
Want to test this?
Looking for technical producer pairs to test with real projects. Setup requires some hand-holding (Zoom call, we got you). Free forever if you help us build it.
