Project Summary

An audio mastering company hired SayOne Technologies to implement backend development for their audio-mixing web platform. SayOne built backend pages using Django and Mezzanine, optimized upload capabilities, added folder-based file organization and a real-time before-and-after mixing feature. The vendor delivered the required functionality on time and within budget, though the client noted opportunities for improved communication during milestones.

Key Challenges

Expand the website's file processing capabilities to support multiple file uploads
Build an internal system that allows users to easily upload and organize multiple files
Lack of internal resources to translate designs into a functional interface

Project Deliverables

Backend for two or three pages (Django, Mezzanine, WebFaction)
Folder-based file organization for sound files
Real-time before-and-after audio mixing feature
Data migration preparation

Project Solution

They implemented a front-to-back solution using the client's visuals, developing the backend for two to three pages with Django, Mezzanine and hosting on WebFaction. The team added folder-based organization for sound files, optimized upload capabilities, and built a before-and-after real-time audio mixing feature. The vendor is also preparing for an upcoming data migration.

Project Outcome

Site aligned accurately with the client's vision
Delivered in a timely and cost-effective manner and maintained project deadlines
Maintained prompt communication (primarily via Slack) despite minor delays caused by time differences
