For music & voiceover studios
Never hand over a master before you're paid.
Cadenza is the back office for studios: clients, jobs, timer billing, invoices, and bookkeeping — wrapped around a watermarked review-and-pay delivery flow that keeps your clean masters locked until the money lands.
No credit card tricks — cancel anytime during the trial.
Masters stay private. Clean files live in a vault and only ever move through short-lived signed links.
Money goes to you. Payments land in your own Stripe account — Cadenza never touches your card data or your payout.
Everything is logged. Every payment, release, and download is written to an audit trail.
The Cadenza flow
Watermark → review → approve → pay → download.
The chase-the-client-for-payment era ends here. Your client hears exactly what they need to approve the work — and nothing they could use before paying for it.
- 01
Upload the master
Drop the finished track or VO read on the job. The clean file goes straight into a private vault — it is never publicly reachable.
- 02
Cadenza watermarks it
A preview is generated with your own watermark audio laid over it — your timing, your interval, your volume. That's the only file the client ever hears before paying.
- 03
Client reviews by link
One secure, expiring link. No client account needed. They listen, request changes, or approve — every step logged.
- 04
They pay — you keep 100%
Card payment lands directly in your own Stripe account, or record cash / Zelle / check yourself. Partial payments supported.
- 05
The clean master unlocks
Only after payment does Cadenza issue a short-lived signed download of the untouched master. Revoke any link, any time.
Everything else a studio runs on
One place for the whole business.
Clients & jobs
A CRM built for sessions, not sales funnels. Every job carries its requirements, files, deadline, invoice, and delivery state in one place.
Session timer billing
Start the clock when the session starts. Per-minute rates with per-job minimums — 12 minutes of work still bills your 15-minute floor.
Invoices that collect themselves
Build an invoice from a job's line items and timer charges, or from scratch. Send it, get paid online, or log the Zelle that hit your phone.
Bookkeeping without the spreadsheet
Income posts itself when invoices are paid. Log expenses with receipts. See profit & loss and cash flow by month, and hand your accountant clean CSVs.
Studio calendar
Every job due date lands on the calendar automatically. Overdue work glows. Move a due date and everything follows.
Your bank, reconciled
Match Stripe payouts and bank-feed transactions against your ledger so the books always agree with the bank. (Pro)
Your next master deserves to be paid for.
Set up your studio in minutes. Seven days free on either plan.
