BoomBox Alternative

BoomBox Is Great.
Aliada Goes Further.

Both BoomBox and Aliada were built for audio professionals. We share the same core features—lossless playback, timestamped comments, waveform visualization. But Aliada adds version control, A/B comparison, and unlimited file sizes.

What BoomBox and Aliada Share

We're not like Dropbox or WeTransfer. Both BoomBox and Aliada understand audio workflows. Here's what we have in common:

Lossless audio playback
Timestamped comments
Waveform visualization
Team workspaces
Password-protected sharing
Embeddable players

Where Aliada Goes Further

We built Aliada because we wanted everything BoomBox does—plus features it doesn't have.

Automatic Version Control

Every upload is tracked. Compare any two versions instantly.

BoomBox requires creating new links for each version. With Aliada, all versions live in one place with full history.

A/B Comparison

Listen to two mixes side-by-side with synchronized playback.

Hear the exact differences between versions without downloading or switching tabs.

Unlimited File Sizes

No 2 GB limit. Upload full multitrack sessions without compression.

Large sessions with stems? No problem. Aliada handles files of any size.

Higher Sample Rates

Support for 192 kHz / 32-bit float audio.

BoomBox caps at 96 kHz. Aliada goes higher for true high-resolution audio work.

Side-by-Side Comparison

Aliada

Audio collaboration with version control

  • Version control built-in — track all revisions
  • A/B comparison — compare versions side-by-side
  • Unlimited file sizes — no 2 GB limit
  • 192 kHz support — highest resolution
  • $9/month starting price

BoomBox

Audio file sharing

  • No version control — new link per version
  • No A/B comparison feature
  • 2 GB file size limit
  • 96 kHz max (still very good)
  • $10/month starting price

The Version Control Problem

This is the biggest difference between BoomBox and Aliada. Here's what happens in practice:

With BoomBox

  1. 1. Upload Mix v1, share link
  2. 2. Get feedback, make changes
  3. 3. Upload Mix v2, create NEW link
  4. 4. Client asks "which link was v1?"
  5. 5. Email thread chaos begins...

With Aliada

  1. 1. Upload Mix v1, share ONE link
  2. 2. Get feedback, make changes
  3. 3. Upload Mix v2 to SAME link
  4. 4. Client sees both versions, clicks to compare
  5. 5. Everyone stays organized ✓

When to Choose Each Platform

  • You only need basic file sharing with comments
