Doing this manually involves countless phone calls, emails and texts and Approvl makes this efficient and easy for both producer and artist. Mixes can be reviewed on Mac, iPad or iPhone also making it easy for mixes to approved on the road, in the van or wherever the artist is. Mixes can also be approved through a web link. Approvl is a paid monthly or annual subscription for producers but is free to approvers.
