How to Collaborate on a Song in ShiMuv
Invite collaborators to your DAW session, share recordings in real-time and manage contributor roles.
February 20, 2026
ShiMuv lets you invite other creators to your DAW sessions for real-time collaboration. You can record, edit and mix together from anywhere in the world.
Step 1: Open Your Session
Go to the Studio and open an existing song or create a new one.
Step 2: Open the Collaboration Panel
Click the Collaborate button (people icon) in the top toolbar. This opens the collaboration panel showing the current session participants.
Step 3: Invite Collaborators
Click Invite and enter a ShiMuv username or email address. The collaborator receives a notification and can join the session immediately.
Step 4: Set Permissions
Choose whether each collaborator can Edit (full access to record, mix and arrange) or View (listen and comment only). You can change permissions at any time.
Step 5: Work Together
Both users see the same timeline. When one person records or makes an edit, it appears for the other in real-time. Use the built-in chat or work in turns by soloing and muting tracks.

Recording Is Just the Beginning
This tutorial covered recording — but ShiMuv takes you from raw vocals to a finished, published release. After recording, mix your track with built-in effects, master it with AI, create a music video or lipsync clip, and publish to the community where listeners discover your music through genre radio stations. The entire journey happens in one platform.
