r/IndieMusicFeedback: Multi-Cam Demo Videos to Get Real Reddit Feedback
This page explains how to record multi-cam (multi-track) demos on your phone in SONGTAKE so you can post to r/IndieMusicFeedback and get real feedback—not generic praise. Reddit rewards recordings that feel immediate and honest; this app gives you clean audio, natural performances, and a format that avoids the "overproduced demo" downvotes.
This is YOU?
r/IndieMusicFeedback rewards posts that feel like "here's my work in progress" not "here's my release."
Single-angle clips don't show your process; overedited multi-cam takes forever.
You need something that feels immediate and honest—no DAW flexing, no gear talk.
Generic praise isn't useful; you want real feedback on mix, arrangement, or vibe.
Pro Tip: TIP: SONGTAKE lets you record multi-cam demos on your phone—each instrument or section on its own track, auto-synced—and export one focused clip. Frame your post with humility and a clear ask (what you want feedback on). Reddit responds when the recording feels like it was captured during the process, not marketed. Clean audio + natural performance + honest framing = useful feedback.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get useful feedback on r/IndieMusicFeedback instead of generic praise?
Post a focused clip (30–90 seconds) and tell people what you want feedback on—e.g. mix balance, arrangement, or overall vibe. Frame it as a work in progress ("I'm unsure about...") and add that it's intentionally raw. Reddit responds when you signal humility and specificity, not self-promo.
Why does multi-cam help for Reddit feedback?
Listeners give better feedback when they see and hear each section or instrument clearly. Multi-cam lets you show structure and performance in one clip. Combined with honest framing, it reads as "writer asking for help" not "artist dropping a link."
Do I need a computer or video editor?
No. You can record and export multi-cam video entirely on your phone in SONGTAKE. Capture your demo and post to Reddit the same day. The goal is immediacy and clarity, not polish.
How do I avoid the self-promo downvotes?
Keep the clip short and focused. In your post, say what you're specifically unsure about and that you'd appreciate thoughts on songwriting or production, not just praise. Reddit rewards honesty and clear asks.
Why do multicam SongTake clips get more comments than a single phone video?
Not because they're fancier—because they're clearer and more trustworthy. A single static phone video often gets 1–2 comments. A short multicam SongTake clip typically gets 5–20 comments, more specific and more useful. Reddit doesn't reward 'better video'; it rewards watchability + credibility.
What does Reddit actually optimize for?
Four things: people stop scrolling in the first 1–2 seconds; they understand what they're seeing instantly; audio is intelligible without effort; and the post feels non-promotional. SongTake helps on all four—multicam for scroll-stop and clarity, clean audio for intelligibility, and a WIP/rehearsal feel for non-promo.
When should I use phone-only vs SongTake for Reddit?
Use phone-only for quick ideas for yourself. Use SongTake for anything you plan to share publicly for feedback. 'Does this look like I'm asking for feedback, or like I'm asking for fans?' SongTake clips almost always read as feedback-seeking, which is what Reddit rewards.
What makes SONGTAKE different from voice memos?
SONGTAKE records in true stereo with automatic cloud backup, project organization, and multi-track capabilities. Unlike voice memos that create a graveyard of unnamed files, SONGTAKE keeps everything organized, synced across devices, and ready to develop into full productions.
Can I use SONGTAKE with just one phone?
Absolutely! SONGTAKE works perfectly with a single phone for recording arrangements, backing vocals, and layered instruments. While multiple phones give you multi-angle coverage and better isolation, one phone is all you need to create professional multi-track recordings with video overdubbing.
Can I use SONGTAKE for professional music recording?
Yes! SONGTAKE seamlessly transitions from mobile recording to professional desktop production. Start with iPhone for song ideas, then open the same project on Mac with a professional 64-channel interface for mixing and mastering. It's the bridge between inspiration and production.
How does multi-phone recording work?
Place phones near each instrument for dedicated microphones. One tap starts all phones simultaneously, and they automatically sync after recording. No manual alignment needed—just position phones, hit record, and get professional multi-track isolation from devices you already own.
