Geniviv overview
Geniviv is where your music lives in LMG Core. It’s a shared library for your whole organization — but a smart one, with version history, precise sharing, and a full record of who did what.
Why not just a shared drive?
Section titled “Why not just a shared drive?”A plain shared folder gets you part of the way, then falls apart:
- You overwrite the “final” mix and lose the old one.
- Everyone can see everything — or nothing — with no in-between.
- Nobody knows who changed what, or when.
Geniviv fixes each of these by design. Every file keeps its history, sharing is per-person and per-file, and every action is logged.
The big ideas
Section titled “The big ideas”How your library is laid out
Section titled “How your library is laid out”Geniviv organizes work into folders and files, like a computer you share with your team. Open a folder to see what’s inside; open a file to see its versions, who can access it, and its full history.
What you’ll always be able to see
Section titled “What you’ll always be able to see”Geniviv only ever shows you what you’re allowed to see. A private file you haven’t been given access to simply won’t appear in your lists. This keeps your view focused — and keeps sensitive work in the right hands.
