# Collaborators

Manage your creative team — producers, engineers, designers, videographers, and more.

Track everyone who contributes to your music. Producers, engineers, mix engineers, mastering engineers, photographers, videographers, designers, session musicians — all in one place with their roles, contact details, PRO and IPI numbers, tags, notes, and split sheets.

## Splits and agreements

For songs with multiple writers/producers, a split sheet records three separate pies for each song, and each one adds up to 100% on its own: Songwriting (who wrote the song), Publishing (the publisher's share of the song; if you publish yourselves it's yours, and it usually matches Songwriting) and Master (who owns the recording). Each sheet shows three bars with one color per person, the same in all three (hover a slice for the number), and tracks its status (Draft, Agreed, Signed, Disputed) — no more "we'll figure it out later" leading to disputes years down the road. A sheet with a filled-in pie that isn't at 100% is marked "Doesn't add up". Rounding counts as 100%: three writers at 33.33% each add up to 99.99%, and that pie shows "100% (rounded)".

In the editor, each person is one row with a Songwriting %, Publishing % and Master % box. "Split evenly" fills a column to exactly 100% across the people on the sheet, "Copy Songwriting to Publishing" copies the writer split across, and "You" puts yourself on the sheet under your campaign's artist name. A share left empty means not set yet; 0 means 0. A sheet marked Agreed or Signed whose numbers don't add up gets a warning, but it still saves. Deleting someone from the Directory keeps their name and shares on the sheets they are on, and MusicLaunch tells you which sheets first. Split sheets are included in the Excel export.

## Linking to campaigns

Collaborators belong to a campaign, so when you're looking back at "who worked on this album", the answer is one click away.
