# Incremental Audio Production Workflow

This skill provides a resilient pattern for audio production that emphasizes **incremental verification** and **fail-fast** principles. Each major step produces verified outputs before proceeding, reducing iteration count and catching errors early.

## Overview

Follow these steps in strict order. Each step must complete successfully and pass verification before proceeding to the next:

1. **Early timing calculation** - Derive section transitions from BPM and duration first
2. **Verify reference audio** - Validate input file properties
3. **Generate and verify each stem individually** - One stem at a time with immediate verification
4. **Generate drum stem separately** - Dedicated drum extension with rhythm patterns
5. **Apply effects with verification** - Process each stem and verify output
6. **Export master track** - Mix all verified stems
7. **Archive and final verification** - Package deliverables with comprehensive checks

## Key Differences from Standard Workflow

- **Incremental verification**: Verify each stem immediately after generation, not just at the end
- **Fail-fast approach**: Stop and report errors at each step rather than accumulating failures
- **Early timing**: Calculate section transitions before any audio generation
- **Separated drums**: Drum stem generation is a distinct step with rhythm-specific processing
- **Memory-efficient**: Process stems individually to avoid large array operations that cause sandbox failures

## Step 1: Calculate Timing Parameters (Early)

Calculate all timing parameters **before** generating any audio. This ensures consistent timing across all stems:
