Notes
Heads up: voice needs a secure context (HTTPS or localhost). Chrome blocks the mic on file:// URLs — open this artifact via the Cowork sidebar, or serve the folder with python3 -m http.server and open http://localhost:8000. Safari is more forgiving but still needs mic permission.
How it works: your ElevenLabs key + Agent ID open a live conversation with Hope — ElevenLabs voice, Claude Sonnet 4.6 brain. She has tools for your chain, library, meters, insight notes, and flags, so she reads and edits the workbench while you talk. Try: "what's on my master bus?", "add Maag EQ4 after Ozone", "switch genre to R&B", or "I'm hearing pumping on the master." At end of call your profile auto-extracts via Haiku so she remembers across sessions. Live transcript and snapshots show on the Hope tab.
Reset
This wipes your entire workbench — chain, meters, flags, favourites, and custom plugins. It cannot be undone.
Marketing
Strategy, web presence, release planning, and future direction — powered by your Pop A&R persona.
Coming soon. This tab will connect to your Pop A&R voice persona — discuss AIMixmasters.com, marketing strategy, artist positioning, release planning, and where you want to take the project next. The persona system (Backlog #1) wires this up. In the meantime, bring these topics into the Hope tab.
Community
Social presence, community inbox, GitHub, and fan engagement — all in one place.
Coming soon. This tab will be the hub for the AI Mix Masters community — monitor social reactions, manage a community inbox for ideas and feedback, link to the GitHub repo and community pages, and engage with fans and collaborators. Scope is on the roadmap; the tab is here as a placeholder so it stays top of mind.
Add plugin to bus
Copy manually (⌘A then ⌘C)
Auto-copy failed — your browser blocks clipboard writes on file://. Select all (⌘A / Ctrl-A) then copy (⌘C / Ctrl-C). Fix for good: open the artifact via the Cowork sidebar, or serve the folder with python3 -m http.server in the artifact folder and open http://localhost:8000.

Load presets into Workbench?
Pick which preset loads into each bus. Buses with multiple options for this genre let you choose your favourite — or skip a bus to leave its current chain alone. Closing this dialog without applying keeps your chain unchanged.
