What is an organization?

An Organization in Soundcheck represents your band, company, or solo act. It’s the container for:
  • All your gigs and events
  • Your song library and setlists
  • Team members and positions
  • Leads and business opportunities
  • Settings and preferences
Think of it as your digital headquarters for managing performances.

Decide who needs admin access before inviting. It’s easier to grant than revoke.

Know who’s responsible for what within your organization.
