A mixing session generates stems in WAV format: drums, bass, guitars, vocals, synths, effects. Each stem is 50-200MB. A full session is 500MB to 2GB. The producer needs them by tomorrow. Compressing to MP3 destroys the audio quality. Email rejects the file size. Here is the professional way to share music production files.
Why Audio Quality Matters in Sharing
Messaging apps (WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord) compress audio files during transfer. A 24-bit 96kHz WAV file becomes a 128kbps AAC file that has lost dynamic range, high-frequency detail and spatial information. For music production, this is unacceptable. The producer or mixing engineer needs the exact file you recorded.
EasySend transfers files at their original quality. Zero compression, zero conversion, zero re-encoding. The file the recipient downloads is byte-for-byte identical to what you uploaded.
How to Share Stems and Masters
- Export your stems from your DAW (Pro Tools, Logic, Ableton, FL Studio) at the session sample rate and bit depth
- Upload all stems at easysend.co. They bundle under one link
- Add a description with the session name, BPM, key and sample rate
- Share the link with your producer, mixing engineer or collaborator
- They download everything as individual files or a ZIP archive
Supported Audio Formats
EasySend accepts every audio format with no restrictions:
- WAV (lossless, standard for stems and masters)
- FLAC (lossless compressed, good for archiving)
- AIFF (Apple lossless)
- MP3 (lossy, for reference mixes)
- M4A/AAC (lossy, for voice memos and demos)
- OGG, WMA, ALAC and any other format
Protecting Unreleased Music
Unreleased tracks and pre-release masters are valuable. Leaks can damage release strategies. EasySend offers two protection layers:
- Password protection prevents unauthorized access to the download page
- End-to-end encryption encrypts the audio files in your browser before upload. The server never hears your music
Common Music Production Scenarios
- Sending stems to the mixing engineer for a professional mix
- Delivering masters to the label for distribution
- Sharing rough mixes with band members for feedback
- Collaborating remotely with producers in other cities
- Sending sample packs to fellow producers
- Delivering podcast episodes to editors
File Size Tips
- ZIP your stems if you have many individual files. WAV compresses about 50% in ZIP format
- Use FLAC for sharing if the recipient's DAW supports it. Same quality as WAV at 60% of the file size
- Export at session rate (do not upsample). 44.1kHz 24-bit is standard for most projects
For files over 1GB, Premium supports up to 10GB per file. See the music industry guide and musician use case page.
