  1. 1
    Choose a source

    Browse the relevant catalog, library, playlist, show, or search result.

  2. 2
    Verify identity

    Check title, creator, artwork, version, duration, and visibility.

  3. 3
    Start playback

    Use the player controls and confirm the expected track or episode.

  4. 4
    Follow sharing rules

    Distribute only the approved public, private, unlisted, or token link.

Expected result

The intended audio plays and is shared only within its configured audience and license.

Procedure 1.2

Join a listening room

  1. 1
    Open the room

    Use the approved room link or select it from Listening Rooms.

  2. 2
    Verify the host and purpose

    Check room title, host, current audio, and expected audience.

    Allow audio and understand that the host may control synchronized position.

    Follow participant, chat, and moderation rules.

  5. 5
    Leave when complete

    Exit the room and stop local playback.

Expected result

The listener joins the intended room with synchronized audio and leaves without continuing unintended playback.

Chapter 02

Publish tracks, playlists, and podcasts

Preserve source masters and rights evidence; processing success does not replace editorial or licensing approval.

Procedure 2.1

Upload a track

Upload one approved source and review the transcoded result before visibility is expanded.

ForPublisher
  1. 1
    Prepare source and rights

    Confirm master file, ownership or license, contributors, artwork rights, and intended audience.

  2. 2
    Open Upload

    Select the approved audio file and avoid duplicate submissions.

  3. 3
    Enter metadata

    Complete title, creator, credits, description, artwork, licensing, and visibility fields.

  4. 4
    Wait for processing

    Keep the master and monitor status until playback formats are ready.

  5. 5
    Review playback

    Check beginning, middle, end, loudness, artwork, metadata, and sharing behavior.

  6. 6
    Publish deliberately

    Expand visibility only after content and rights approval.

Expected result

One reviewed catalog item exists with traceable rights, accurate metadata, and intentional visibility.

Procedure 2.2

Create a playlist

Build an ordered collection from authorized tracks and verify its audience.

  1. 1
    Open Playlists

    Search for an existing collection before creating a new one.

  2. 2
    Set identity and visibility

    Enter a clear title, description, artwork, and audience.

  3. 3
    Add tracks

    Select the intended versions and arrange them in listening order.

  4. 4
    Review continuity

    Check unavailable items, duplicates, explicit-content rules, and the opening sequence.

  5. 5
    Save and test

    Open the playlist as the intended audience and start playback.

Expected result

The playlist presents the intended ordered tracks to the correct audience.

Procedure 2.3

Publish a podcast episode

Maintain show identity, episode metadata, media, and RSS-facing fields.

  1. 1
    Open the show

    Use Podcasts and select the existing show, or create it only when authorized.

  2. 2
    Prepare the episode

    Confirm audio master, title, summary, numbering, publication date, artwork, and rights.

  3. 3
    Upload and process

    Submit the source once and wait for a playable episode.

  4. 4
    Review show and RSS context

    Check episode order, descriptions, links, and any public feed exposure.

  5. 5
    Publish and verify

    Open the episode page and, when applicable, validate the public RSS feed.

Expected result

The episode appears in the correct show order with reviewed playback and feed metadata.

Chapter 03

Operate rooms, live audio, and sharing

Real-time and token-based access requires active monitoring and an explicit end or revocation decision.

Procedure 3.1

Host a live audio session

Configure, test, monitor, and close a live stream or room.

ForHost
  1. 1
    Create or open the session

    Choose Live or Listening Rooms and confirm the approved audience.

  2. 2
    Configure metadata and controls

    Set title, description, visibility, moderation, and source details.

  3. 3
    Run a private test

    Verify input, levels, latency, participant controls, and fallback.

  4. 4
    Start and monitor

    Watch connection state, audience, moderation, and playback throughout.

  5. 5
    End deliberately

    Stop the source and session, then verify whether a recording or replay exists.

Expected result

The approved audience hears a monitored session that ends with a known recording and access state.

Procedure 3.2

Share private or unlisted audio

Use the generated share route as a secret and verify recipient access.

  1. 1
    Confirm sharing authority

    Check rights, classification, recipient, purpose, and duration.

  2. 2
    Create the supported share

    Use the item’s private or unlisted sharing action when exposed.

  3. 3
    Test the token route

    Open the generated /shared/{token} link in a private session.

  4. 4
    Send through an approved channel

    Deliver only to the intended recipient or group.

  5. 5
    Revoke when required

    Remove or rotate access when the purpose ends or exposure is suspected.

Expected result

The intended recipient can play the correct item without receiving broader catalog access.

Operating rules

Security and data handling

  • Keep source masters and rights evidence outside the publication workflow.
  • Treat private, unlisted, room, live, and token links as access material.
  • Protect live source credentials and revoke any exposed secret.
  • Moderate live and social listening sessions actively.
  • Apply the original classification and license to downloads, feeds, and derived clips.
Current release

Known limitations

Read before relying on an unsupported workflow

These limits describe the source-pinned Sonoris UI 0.1.0 scope and must be rechecked when the product changes.

  • The live UI reports version 0.1.0 and some features depend on backend deployment phase and tenant configuration.
  • The separate sonoris-v2 frontend is a preview and is not the basis of this live manual.
  • Transcoding formats, upload limits, public RSS behavior, analytics, moderation, and replay availability depend on active services.
  • Token links can be forwarded by recipients; they are not identity-bound unless the active share mode says otherwise.
Problem solving

Troubleshooting

You cannot sign in to Sonoris

Likely cause: The session expired, the identity is not assigned to the application, or the tenant claim is missing.

  1. Open the application from the approved portal and complete sign-in again.
  2. Confirm that the correct organizational identity and tenant are selected.
  3. If access is still denied, record the time and request an entitlement check from support.

A documented action or navigation item is not visible

Likely cause: The current role, release, tenant configuration, or feature flag does not expose that operation.

  1. Confirm the role and prerequisites listed for the procedure.
  2. Reload the page after signing in again; do not attempt to bypass the interface through direct URLs.
  3. Ask the product owner whether the feature is enabled for the tenant before reporting a defect.

A saved change or background operation is not visible

Likely cause: Validation failed, processing is still running, or the current view is stale or filtered.

  1. Review inline validation, status indicators, filters, and the selected tenant or workspace.
  2. Refresh once and search for the item by its stable name or identifier.
  3. Do not repeat irreversible or externally visible actions until the original operation status is known.

Uploaded audio is not playable

Likely cause: Upload or transcoding is incomplete, the format is unsupported, or metadata references the wrong item.

  1. Keep the master and record the item ID.
  2. Check processing status before uploading again.
  3. Escalate with sanitized metadata and timing if processing is terminal or stalled.

A room or live session has no audio

Likely cause: The source is muted, input or ingest failed, the session is not live, or playback is blocked.

  1. Check host source and session status.
  2. Test with a second authorized listener without exposing credentials.
  3. End the session if audience state is uncertain and preserve diagnostics.
