Account Setup

To set up your account, simply sign up for the Performidi® platform and confirm your email. During the sign-up process, we gather all the information we need to get you started.

Sign Up for Performidi

Go to performidi.com/sign-up, or click the Try Now arrow icon at the top right corner of the page to begin the sign up process.

Add Required Information

Set your account type to Producer. Provide your first name, last name, and email address, and create a password with 8 or more characters. After clicking Submit, you will be taken to a secondary sign up page. Here, you can generate a username, add your phone number, and adjust notification settings. We recommend keeping notifications turned on for the best collaborative recording experience.

Purchase Midibucks

Before you can create a project and commission your first recording, you'll need to purchase Midibucks, which are used to set a bid amount and pay for auditions from session musicians. Our Payment Setup help article walks you through each step for connecting a payment method and purchasing Midibucks.

Confirm Your Email

To keep your account and payment information safe, you'll need to confirm your connected email address before you can create your first project. Once the sign up process is completed, you will receive a confirmation email. Click the link in the confirmation email to verify your email and finish setting up your account.

Edit Account Settings

Your account settings and information can be edited through the Settings page, which can be accessed by clicking the icon at the top left of the Performidi dashboard. Here, you can change your avatar, username, email, phone number, and notification preferences, and add plugin setup keys. Click here to go to Account Settings.

Select Your Avatar

Click on your favorite avatar image in the Select Avatar section on the Settings page. The image will light up once selected. Click Save to confirm your new avatar.

Change Your Email

You can view and change your connected email address in the Email section on the Settings page. If you need to connect a new email to your account, simply type in your new email and click Save. You will receive a confirmation email to verify your new email address. After clicking on the link in the confirmation email, your new email address will be connected to your account. Until you confirm your new email address, email communications will still be sent to your previous email. Only one email can be connected to your account at a time.

Change Your Phone Number

Your connected phone number can be found in the Phone section on the Settings page. If you need to update your phone number, simply type in your new number and click Save. You will receive a confirmation text to verify the new number. Click on the confirmation link in the text, and your new phone number will be connected to your account. Until you confirm your new phone number, text notifications will still be sent to your previous number. Only one phone number can be connected to your account at a time.

Regenerate Your Username

The username generator automatically creates a random username for you. Click Regenerate to create a new username. Once you are satisfied with your username, do not click Regenerate again — you won't be able to get it back.

Adjust Notification Preferences

Don't miss a beat. Join our mailing lists to receive newsletters with helpful resources and links, get notified about competitions and giveaways, or hear about key updates, software releases, and free tools. Get notifications through both text and email.
